I do notice a lot of posts on the forum where you literally cannot tell what a person is saying in their main post. So why am I seeing so many posts with weird terminology, or idioms of a hidde nature. It's very confusing, especially when it may be a newer person.

Welcome to bitcointalk. This forum used to be a board for those interested in bitcoin, but now it's a forum where mostly Indonesians and Filipino kids come to earn money from alt coin icos. They often have absolutely no knowledge or interest in bitcoin at all and many obviously cannot speak English very well if at all so use google translate etc hence why many posts are garbled nonsense. Even worse is when they just copy and paste an older post from the same thread which is a problem that is rife and often very difficult to spot. These people only post here because it's easy to earn from ico signature campaigns and once they do get their first payment they then tell all their family members and all their friends at school or work and the problem is exacerbated exponentially every single day. As long as lazy ico campaigns are allowed to operate here as they wish and pay users for whatever crap they can churn out with complete impunity nothing is going to change and the problem is only going to get worse daily.

I love how I made a post and with my crappy keyboard I omitted the "P" Ironic much? XD

I'm not against shorter posts, fun posts, joking posts. I'm not against people who use english a s a second language. I lived abroad for three years. I do notice a lot of posts on the forum where you literally cannot tell what a person is saying in their main post.  It's usually the case that someone with english as their second language often has better posts than us haha. So why am I seeing so many posts with weird terminology, or idioms of a hidde nature. It's very confusing, especially when it may be a newer person.

its because they cant speak english verry well and they are mostly from third world countries. and yes english it is their secondary or tertiary languange but not all can do a better post with good grammar compared to the users who's primary language is english.

maybe because they are sick of the same old way of posting and they want to try out a new phrase/words or they just want to make thier post jargons.
