you overkilled it, prismgecko. true 1337talk leaves whatever you can't make with numbers as just letters, except for a very few, such as /V, and some letters within that same accord. like, um, j h and p would just be regular letters. and i really am sad to say that i would know. years of counterstrike, w00t.
typing in 1337talk is what many 1337, or leet, elite, people do sometimes.
don't you just pronounce it as it sounds?
sherbertsherbetsherbert..
the typing with a caps frenzy is very nub. gets on my eyes' nerves.
and that game with the squares, yeah that's a cool game. takes too long to set up though, makin all those dots...
ok i'm done. c ya sometime. hopefully. that sort of thing.

I know that "elite" people type in 1337 technically, I was just posing a question...lol

I have always gotten confused on the word sherbet..is it sorbet, sherbert, or sherbet, I have heard it called all three, or maybe they are three entirly different things that I am mixing up?!?

Yeah, that game is quite time consuming to make, I normally play it when its in little activity packets that you get at restaurants and such, that way you don't have to make it...

Yeah, see ya hopefully soon!

I wouldn't say so. True 1337speak depends on the person who's writing it. And it depends on what your needs are: 1337speak supposedly evolved first on bulletin boards that were heavily censored, leaving people to come up with more and more creative ways to curse, talk about unacceptable subjects (such as r0xx0ring people's b0xx0rz O_o;) et cetera. So you might have to come up with a non-alphanumeric alternative, like um, |< for k. Of course you wouldn't have time to do this while blowing the top off someone's head in counterstrike. XD

For more info, check out the article about it on wikipedia, it's pretty cool.

Also for a cool(and needlessly extreme) example, the character Aura in the .hack money-sinks I mean games, speaks in pretty much indecipherable 1337. Funky.

r0xx0ring someone's b0xx0r means hacking their computer. I know this cause I researched, and have friends who are into that stuff, but I personally am incapable of even TICKLING someone's b0xx0r. I've also heard that "owned" or "pwned" was used to refer to a computer whose security you'd compromised ("I pwned his b0xx0r.) and then later used in games, like counterstrike, to refer to completely dominating a member of the other team. ("Oh! Man, you just got pwned!)

Counterstrike's a game where... You shoot people. and play on teams. I never really played it, but know many people who do. Definitely not the sort of game where you'd have time to make up funky letters.
