With the crowd around here I don’t think using “have seen” compared to just “seen” is going to stand out. Me typing out quickly on my phone as I’m sitting in a waiting room “I seen” and having someone judge me on that small tidbit is laughable. It’s a sports message board, not my English Comp 2 college course.
When “I seen” is typed a million of times a day, along with “could care less” . Along with all the **** ups with your, you’re, there, their, they’re. Me typing doesn’t rank very high on my give a **** list, until a random internet person tells me to care, because other random internet people might think less of me.
