A friend of mine received the following message on myspace and due to obvious spelling errors and lack of conjugation ability, i am incapable of translating this message.

They put this in romaji? how obnoxious.
basically, they're not mad about the thing with nobu's girlfriend anymore. There's no point in staying mad, and continuing on like this is just painful. Also, forgiveness is an important thing as well. If it's no trouble, please convey this to her.

It was on myspace, and myspace forces 8-bit on everyone. (Go figure.) I will inform Lizzie of the message and propose that from now on they use Kana via a graphical image file, for then it would be much more easily translated. Thank you.

Well.... here...
First off, i don't beleive that "naikarane" is a word...
Likewise, i don't think "dakedakara" is a word either...
"kotodakarane" seems a little big, even for japanese.
And i know darn well that "oitekudasai" isn't a word.
That's all just a quick 5 minute analysis that picked up those 4. Yes, i know that it's all crammed together in kanji and kana, but not so easily dealt with when written in romaji. I am incapable of identifying the others at this time, for i am in a rush.

it's just an alternate way of breaking up sentences using spaces, none of which would be there if it were in Japanese. This is another reason why romaji is a piss-poor way to communicate in Japanese.

Yeah, it's just another way of breaking up sentences. Though personally, I would break up every word when writing in romaji. "nai kara ne", "dake dakara", "koto dakara ne", "oite kudasai", etc...it seems clearer that way, but of course when writing in actual Japanese doinkies wouldn't have any spaces in sentences.
Korean and Arabic romanization is even doinkier than Japanese romanization can be...There are so many different romanization systems in use for Korean and Arabic and it gets to the point where the head of Libya's name can be spelled 12 different ways and where people romanize the Korean word 언니 ("older sister"; this word is used by women) as "eonni", "onni", "unni", "unnie", etc...ughuu.

I am aware, but it's considerably more easy to translate in kana, for it's easier to seperate it since my eyes are more used to it that way.
