It took my mother long enough to learn how to operate a calculator, there's no way she'll be able to cope with this. :D

The link half way through refering to "Online video game bullies or "griefers"" is also pretty funny.

Quote:

Known as griefers, snerts, cheese players, twinks, or just plain cyberbullies, chances are that a kid near you has been bothered by one of these ne'er-do-wells at least once while playing online multiplayer video games such as Halo 2, EverQuest, The Sims Online, SOCOM, and Star Wars Galaxies.

This can't be serious. Do parents really think the kids are saying anything like "Hey let's have wild internet sex" or "Let's rob a bank!" in LEET behind their parent's back? xD

I posted this in chat the other day. I couldn't believe it. Everyone got a real kick out of it.

My favorite part:

Ok so I understand how "warez" and "sploitz" could be linked to "theft of intellectual property" but how is pwn?

What griefers do

Typical griefer behavior includes: taunting others, especially beginners (also known as newbies)

I got a real kick outta that line.

Pwn = illegal activity? :rolleyes2

This is too much. It's amazing how microsoft breaks it down. Step by step. I can't believe microsoft would actually do something so stupid like that. Not that they were particularly smart to begin with.

We should "pwn" their intulectual property. Although then they may decide to lable us as "snerts, cheese players, twinks, or just plain cyberbullies".

"rox0rs" Used in place of "rocks," typically to describe something impressive.

Shouldn't that be "r0x0rs?"

Thanks to this, my clone organ smuggling ring has been thwarted by none other than my mother. To emphasize the absurdity, the end of that sentence rhymed a bit. Curse you, Microsoft! Let's just hope you don't teach my stepdad Spanish so he learns who the hell Juan is, and what I'm leaving 10gs in the trashcan near the abandoned Texaco on 1st for.

Don't forget, Microsoft believe they have the right to read everyone's conversations.

After all, most of us are using their technology.

Everyone knows Bill Gates invented the l337 speak and now he's selling us out!!! lol. Seriously I find the replies of the post more funny than the articles lmao.

I R0x0rs y0 b0x0rs because I n0t teh suc or sux0ors as I used ta be.

Really asain internet slang is worse than 1337 speak.They literally replace things like this for example.

"Tis izh da http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifzzz."

Yes, but if Bill Gates were to read what people using his technology have to say about him, he might get his feelings hurt. And the last thing we need is an unhappy lord and master. Erm, CEO guy. :greenie:

Replacing "o" with "0" is optional.

But seriously, i do get what they be talking about. Me and my friends quite often pull this crap to make plans, just because if you do it to the INCREDIBLE extreme, like the above, it scrolls off the page before they can figure it out. it's good to keep em guessing. Kinda like those people that speak Ubby Bubby style to each other because people can't decode fast enough to figure it out. (for those who don't know, it was some thing they did on Zoom, basically you just insert Ubby or Ubbidy in as random syllables in words. it's crazy sounding, and hella good for getting messages across in private.
