Hello,
maybe I'm stupid here, but in your "Guidelines" you say this: "Don't use l33t speak"... what does this mean? Has it something to do with your operators in ezp like i18n or something... dont have a clue.
regards,
claÜs

They mean that you shouldn't use substitution in your words when using the forum. l33t speak is a sort of "hacker" talk, used mainly by the script kiddies of the world, as opposed to those who actually know what they are doing. l33t would be read as "leet" in English, which is a substitution for Elite. Typical character replacements include 3 for E, 1 for L, 7 for T etc. Add to that the use of U instead of You and other such abbreviations and it can be rather inconvenient to try to read through l33t speak on a forum such as this. Hope this helps, Alex

Wow, internet slang, huh?!
Did not know there were people actually commited to writing like this. But I guess there are some "geeks", or were, who might find this kind of language very cool, hehe. Wonder who made the rules for A = 4 and E = 3. Just look at this people...:
"(most commonly seen in ultra 1337 as '1 0\/\/|\|z0r!') rather than '1 0wn3d'. However it can also be used like this, '1 4m l33t h4x0r!' (in ultra 1337, '1 4|\/| |_337 |-|4x0r!') rather than, '1 4m 4 133t h4ck3r!'."
Hahaha! Dont you just wanna write like that??? ;)
