How in the world did you stumble upon that one?

"n00b," "noob," "newbie," or "newb": Combinations synonymous with new user. Some leetspeekers view "n00b" as an insult and "newbie" as an affectionate term for new users.

The only word half of you guys know.

this is old, i knew this like 6 hours ago, funny and a good read :D

#255944

hmmm...

#255947

Rules of grammar are rarely obeyed. Many leetspeekers will capitalize every letter except for vowels (LiKe THiS) and otherwise reject conventional English style and grammar.

Too true, unfortunately (also notice how I spelled too correctly).

I complained to the stupidity of the article. I'd like to think that most parents could figure out that their kids just like to sound foolish when typing because it's so easy to do so.

Since when is "pwned" a possible indication of illegal activity?! Unless some video game activities have become illegal without me knowing about it...

We should thank him for breaking this story to us; it was only posted to obscure sites before.

"Understand how your kids communicate online to help protect them"

and how will this help protect? *too funny*

You beat me to it, Contra; and said it so much more eloquently than I could have. ;)

Still, I found the article quite funny in how serious it was trying to be, compared to how un-seriously I actually take 1337-speak.

LMAO... thats great. Kindof stereotypical but none the less funny.

who says that only Tim has powers, you newbie? :P

#256261

who says that only Tim has powers, you ****ie?

It appears our venerable head of newsposters has taken to flaunting his powers in a completely unacceptable manner. Thus, it is with great sadness that I report to you a successful coup has taken place. Unbeliever has been demoted to the lowly position of a sub-****ie, while I am now head newsposter, local love god, honorary mod, de facto administrator, and other latin titles ad infinitum.

I'll show you second-in-command, you show-off, you.

When did **** become censored?

And the article is great by the way..

#256273

Leet words possibly indicating illegal activity:

• "pwn": A typo-deliberate version of own, a slang term that means to dominate. This could also be spelled "0//n3d" or "pwn3d," among other variations. Online video game bullies or "griefers" often use this term.

great microsoft logic.
