Ian said to Krimel:
You'll have to decode all that coding stuff. I use shorthand for brevity, not
to offend, on the basis that we have a lot of dialogue behind us already.
Because Krimel wrote:
I find your code talking offensive. Over use of punctuation and ending
sentences with some presumed inside knowledge, it is smug pretentious drivel
that require enormous effort to delete.

Krimel has a point, I think, although the code talk doesn't offend me so much
as it confuses me. I think it's not just me. It's simply an objective,
scientific fact that your style is clipped, cryptic and equivocal. You make the
reader work very hard and the pay off is never worth it. Is it really so hard
to write in complete sentences and without presuming your reader knows arcane
trivia like, for example, that "EvoPsych" is a dirty word? You never did say
who thinks its dirty or why they think its dirty and I certainly don't know
what relevance that's supposed to have anyway. This is still true now, even
after you responded to my confusion with a further elaboration. I mean, i just
let it go for lack of enthusiasm but I still have no idea what you were trying
to say.
Just so you know. I wasn't pretending to not understanding. The code talking
really doesn't work and you should care about that if you want to be
understood. Aren't you supposed to be some kind of communications consultant?
Of all the people who should know better... Jeez.
