I have noticed that posters from the US will type:

Anyone know why this seems to be predominant US writing trend??

I just saw it in one of the moderators notices (on the film & tv board), which prompted my question.
I think it's an accect thing rather than a typo or a mis-spelt word. I have noticed the same issue particularly on American boards.
