Texting etiquette questions?

I have had some issues with some of my friends with texts. It has created some serious issues I m curious have I been in the wrong here, whats your take ?

One friend I included in a group text I sent to my closest friends wanting to include them in an event I went to that I was very excited about, took pictures and send pictures. One of my friends called me at the event screaming at me not to sent him texts because its using his data. lol it isnt because we are on the same provider but he doesnt have a smart phone and cant really see pictures well. Hes old school and feel if he doesnt want to receive text then block me hell.

Another friend just texted me because I sent him a text about the basketball game. He got mad because he is taping it and didnt want to know anything about the game until he watches it. lol again is it me or are these guys just idiots when it comes to using phones. I think the later lol.

your thoughts ? thanks

    what you should do is use your device for the other purpose it was manufactured - as a PHONE !!!! and try actually speaking with any/all the people on your text list or whatever it is................ask them if it's OK to text them, or would they prefer a call, etc etc...........+ I agree with the good advice from "shawn"
