Notice I said *most*. If you read books you'll be fine on your exam. It's those that spend all their waking hours on PS2 and online games that have to worry. [img]smile.gif[/img] Games like BG aren't too bad. At least there's some strategy and linguistic interaction involved, except for those people that spend all their time running shoddy munchkin statistical analyses on whose character is badder. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm not knocking the lingo; it's fine for where it's used. But I've met a lot of people my age (soon to be 23) and younger that cannot construct an intelligible sentence.

Good luck on your exam! (a year early, I know).

Oh! I always wondered what leet was supposed to mean! D'oh!! Although it's not like I didn't ask people, they wouldn't tell me (I suspect they didn't know and were just trying to be cool... like most people who know leet do ).

It's called l33t or 1337 (pronpunce leet from elite). It's sort of a language you often find in online games, probably cause of the competition and being better. Other places are some scriptkiddie and cracker communities and IMO it looks like most people using it spend huge amounts of time online. [/QUOTE]LOL...it's alright, I know what l337 is, it was first introduced to me by shadowhound. And I can understand it, but the 1337 LOTR was whacked....lol

ROFLMAO...That is hilarious. I've done just enough online gaming to understand all of that, and that is hilarious. I do like the AIMBOT part.

I agree, it's a bit weird that someone would create a 'language' like that to communicate in when half the time it doesn't save a single keystroke and looks totally ridiculous...I mean P instead of O for owned? Makes no earthly sense, doesn't save time or space and looks silly....they must have had some of those 'shrooms!
Ok3y-

First of all you got like 15000 posts on this forum, so I am surprised that you have kinda been not familiar with that kind of language.

That type of language is called h4xxor språk, or h4xxor language. It's used by alot of ppl, it's quite easy to understand ^^;

IT IS RIDICULOUS as you pointed out, but that is what the joke is about.I would rather have read that in the h4xxor language then with in the usuall language with attempt to be funny.

Um, sure, what he said.... And, Tyranyuz, you should prolly take a zero off that number, as Cloudy is pretty much the only person with that many posts.
