I don't see a problem with it. As long as it's not in amongst loads of text speech then I can't see any issue.
It's clear what the person means when the say cuz with the context it is in.

No Not At all
I am just sick that so many do it
So all I need is Only Admin to tell the Whole site in this on this info thread
Is Cuz a word?
Because I think its Lazy writers or Phone writings
I can recall James made a Great Ruling
Saying Text Speak is not permitted on here.

But many users use "lol" and other text abbreviations. Should they be banned also?
I think using "cuz" is fine in certain circumstances. It's a shortened version of because, if it was used in a sentence like "wot u bn up2 2dai m8 cuz I'm bord" then I would understand. If it's just in a sentence like "I can't be bothered with cleaning today cuz I've been so tired. Then I really don't see a massive issue.
Sometimes it just comes out without people thinking.

I think the general issue with 'text speak' is that it can be really hard to read and understand, but if it's just a simple case of someone saying "cuz" instead of "because" in an otherwise legible sentence then it shouldn't really be an issue. I'm assuming here that when it's been used, you've understood the intent of it?

'cuz' is alright, Arista. Text speak isn't as big a problem now that people have smart-phones and can type easier.
