1337 means "leet" which comes from "elite" in Internet gaming circles. In the olden days hackers used to speak to each other using numbers in their words to confuse government word monitoring tools.

1 = L
3 = E
7 = T

... and so on.

So, gamers started using this confusing text language to sp33k to each other to insult or praise as it was pretty amusing. An example: "OMG I just pwn'd j00 f@gg0t"

Ahh, yea i've heard of the phrase elite but I just thought it ment if you were an "elite" you weer the best of the best.

I think it takes more effort to type in this other fashion. Doesnt make sense to me why people would bother. I find it silly but alas what can you do!?

I fear things went downhill after Mook prevented me from correcting spelling. Sure, first it's just a missing letter but then the boundary becomes blurred and we have all sorz o ruud bi smak-mouting aboot di place.

Does anyone remember George Orwell's 1984? One of the things in there was how the generations would speak different languages and their parents couldn't understand. Not bad for a book writtten in 1948!!!

r33gtst i think the spelling thing is another matter, some people like my self are not very good at spelling,and befor anyone says it i,m even worse at using computers and the spell checker thing what ever that is,this is probebly because my life does not revolve round computers,but what people must remember is it does,nt mean were thick or lazy we just find it difficult which some people may find hard to understand ,but it,s never held me back personlly in my life,but i can see how it would if i desided to change careres. the gangster rap talk .if you cant spell,you can still probebly hold a intelegant conversation
if you cant spell (only in gangster bollocks) and cant talk only in (gangster bollocks) HOW do you converse and thats one of the maen problems with the dick heads that talk like that
it,s bad enough on here ,but when the dickheads come up to you and start talking to you like that,i just laugh at them and ask them why there talking like that cause i cant undrstand them,because if there talking bollocks,beleave me i can talk bollocks back to them,and they soon get the measage
