Many people here (me included) are elitist enough so that they have different ways of communication for different situations. For example, at home I use extremely correct Finnish. With friends I don't do it as often. For many people it just strikes as odd to use shorthand extensively in serious conversation.
Shorthands also give a "n00b" (omg look i said n00b) impression, and therefore many people prefer to avoid it. When it comes to respect from others it's not what you say, it's how you say it. In some other circles using netspeak would probably be the norm, but not at AG.
