Why Do some pepople not know how to text fast?
 
They don't know how to because they either don't texts enough or they just don't know where the buttons are. They need to learn quick cause when people that text fast are doing stuff and we get a text...we stop and text back quick, but the slow ones take forever just to text back. Now tell me if I am wrong about this.

Yes, they don't know where the buttons are. It takes practice to learn where they are and press them without thinking, just like in SM/FFR, so you can only infer that they don't text/practice enough.

I agree with what EA said but my view is.

I can't text very well because I think it's completely pointless. I can just call the person and tell them everything that I want to say at the moment. It takes less time. So thats why I think it's pointless

not all phones use T9 (predictive text) and it can be easy to make mistakes

I don't own a cellphone of sorts. =)

I'm sure I would never text, as rsr2 states.

first of all, saying "everyone who doesn't know how to do something that i can do needs to learn how because it inconveniences me" is being a prick

second of all, blue text

Some people find texting useless and lame.

I would be ashamed at myself if i could text fast on my cellphone. Honestly i don't like people that sit around texting on their cellphone. Its annoying as fuk. Just call the person or wait an hour until you see them or something. Damn kids being so impatient.

It's called muscle memory, you just develop it as you do something more and more. Like typing, or playing video games, or doing anything with your hands.

Hey foilman, pointing out things like that doesn't make you any cooler, and it certainly doesn't improve the thread.

Yeah I told myself I'd never learn to text, haha.
I started learning but then my mom disabled it.
:P
I'm okay.

Some people prefer to talk on their phones. I remember back in my day, when we had to walk 5 miles in the snow just to find a public phone.

To drop a dime, not whatever it is now, 50 cents? A dollar?

Calling is way easier than texting. The only reason you would need to text is to covertly communicate in class or something, which is pretty dumb. If you're bored, there are better ways to have fun.

As long as they actually text you back thats all that counts right ?. Slow or not.

I am more interested in why some people are so ignorant.

I know you're a mod and everything man, but you don't exactly make the most on-topic posts either. Not to mention you frequently double post, and triple post for some 'funny' occasions.

Thanks for the heads up though.

If I bothered to use predictive texting, then I could sure as heck text very fast. As it is, the only texts I ever send are short messages like "Leaving," or "on bus," or something like that. I don't even carry my phone with me while at school--it stays off and in my locker. Generally if someone needs me, they just call me. I mean, it takes like 30 seconds to do so, whereas with texting, you have to wait for the message to be sent and received, which I've seen take upwards of three minutes.

In those cases, calling is actually a lot faster.
