Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

When you go to type a word in some cell phones (when that option is being utilized), it FINISHES the Word for you? I think that option should be in the chat -- it would help us chat faster...

And we would also possibly end up with people getting banned for posting things they did not intend to.

No; I meant in CHAT.

Besides, we could try a BETA CHAT ROOM of this idea, first, and see how successful it was... you know?

Is it really so difficult to type that we need to have our words completed for us automatically? I mean you're just using your fingertips to push a button. Its not that hard.
Also.. why do we need to chat faster? What's the rush? People rush it as it is with shortcuts like 'ppl' 'plz' 'afk' 'brb' 'cc.com' etc...
There is also the voice chat option if you have issues with typing.
Overall this seems like a waste of time and there are a number of things that could be done with the site to improve it that would be much more beneficial.

I actually thought that this thread was requesting a smart phone app for CC. Which think would be a good idea

You're thinking of the T9 Entry Mode.. and I agree with OnceFallen.. There would be a bunch of unnecessary bans.

What if it were an OPTIONAL thing? You could turn it off if you didn't know how to use it?

What if ALSO, you took off the ability to type curse words ? You just wouldn't have that in the memory bank?? How could people get banned, then?
