I was just wondering who else here uses EBG13? I for one think its alot of fun.
So if your in the know join in and help me confuse our fellow IW posters.

Lets see how long it takes for others to figure it out and post in ROT13 as well!



Now that was fun.

Sorry about that Legolas, I want to have a little fun... its a shame that not many of the IW members know ROT13.

Just another shift-the-letters-of-the-alphabet-x-spaces language, although I must say this one is more userfriendly than most. Don't think I'll use it a lot in the future

With the spacing being 13? I suppose since you only have to memorise half the alphabet (the second half is the same in reverse) its not too bad, but the question remains - why?

Sigh. If this takes off Ill have to unearth my Enigma program and confuse you all

Well, appearantly it's a hacker language used to confuse the casual person looking over your shoulder when typing a Email or Private Message.

Very useful for those who are paranoid and think whoever's after them will definately not be clever enough to decipher such a cunning code. Or something [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img]
