simplified... i can read traditional ones but dunno how to write them... taiwaneses use traditional and they don't use pin yin... u? haha yes yes yes! u r awesome. everyone i no and ask always say traditional and im like wot!!!!? am i the only one that knows traditional. but now ive found u. haha u can read traditional tho thts good, i can recognise some words cos most are just a bit more complicated looking than the simplified such as 'lai' - come. but other than that traditional is much harder for me. which is gona make it difficult for me if i wanna go taiwan cos i wont be able to read anything

haha... maybe they think that if they change into simplified chinese it means they agree to be dependant on china? yeh they probably do think that they dnt want to be seen following china. haha its all about the pride

well i think traditional is much harder, its more complicated looking.
but i prefer the way taiwan people speak. in china they have very strong accents and curl the tongue a lot so sometimes its really difficult to understand wot they're saying
