It's always good to have some milk and cookies, while correcting the lads' grammar.

Pfff, this is the internet. And you two know nothing about grammar and spelling. I got that far, it's the last bit I don't understand...

Especially if you are ???? (which I am not)

I've got no idea what 1337 is . . . LEEI? IEEL?

[the_mask]

Perhaps "Leet" ?

That's precisely what I couldn't figure out...

[AdmiralFishface]

"leet" indeed.

[Krytos]

Ah, 1337 - now it clicks!

 

Well, I'm not sure how in depth Unagi353 meant 1337 to be, though here's the history:

1337 is short for 31337 - which is actually "eleet", a slang way of saying elite. This is apparent hacker lingo, was based on a group called the Dead Cow Cult who exploited the 31337 UDP port on Windows 95 to gain access using a program (who's name I wont use). It also evolved into its own slang language.

Thus, Unagi353 was either refereeing to himself not being the elite or not being a hacker.

 

EDIT: Guess it isn't much use now

Thanks Admiral

Hmm, I think the DCC trojan was called Back Orifice and caused quite a fuzz at that time.

 

Thanks for the link, AFF

I don't understand the point of using a way of typing which is nearly incomprehensible.

[Unagi353]

It weeds out the scrubs and the 1337s.

 

Also, some words likd "owned" are easier to express when typed pwnd,

Many 1337 esque phrases are used by scrubs in regular internet, like lol-Laughing out loud... rofl - rolling on floor laughing... lmao- laughing my ass off

 

Who can get this one

I haven't the foggiest...

Aye, you usually see this l33t talk on EQ and such mmorpg's. There l33t is considered "loot" per se. Thats what i see most of the time along with "this camp pwned by us for f@t ub3r l33t" and while i have stopped playing that game, when i did see this i went into a soulsearch trying to figure just what the hell they meant.

Heh, you don't like my littler 1337 alphabet?

[Trejiuvanat]

Actually I find it very useful, but let's stop using this as a chatboard... I'd hate to have and close a topic I started.

[SOCL]

Trej is part of the elite of the Spamming Elite.

[Guest Scathane]

I'd hate to have and close a topic I started.

Now, me..., I love to close any topic you started!

[Trejiuvanat]

But I can always open it again...

Frankly... When moderators have discussions about the future of threads
