2005-04-02 [Spanakopida]: Hee hee, this is most amusing ^^

2005-04-02 [Panda-monium]: Is it?

2005-04-02 [Spanakopida]: Yes.

2005-04-02 [Panda-monium]: ok

2005-04-06 [Charybdis]: ... That was profound. ;)

2005-04-06 [Panda-monium]: What was? o.O

2005-04-07 [Charybdis]: Lol, I was kidding ^^

2005-04-07 [Panda-monium]: okie, but I still don't understand what ye happened to be kidding about...

2005-04-08 [Charybdis]: The whole "this is amusing," - "is it?" - "yes," - "ok," thing. Lol, sorry, I'm easily amused ^^;

2005-04-08 [Panda-monium]: No problemo, just so long as yer amused, I am happy.

2005-04-12 [RAGE!!!]: Hmm, it takes longer to write the full words out. That's why I use "chatspeak"...

2005-04-12 [Panda-monium]: How much longer truthfully? I mean does it kill ye, do you feel like your life is wasting away in front of you as ye type full words? I just don't understand, I guess...

2005-04-12 [Charybdis]: Some people are simply lazy.. or they think it looks cool. Myself, I admit a tendency to use 'lol' a lot *pointedly ignores her previous comments*, but really, on the whole I have to agree. It's like some sort of weird code.

2005-04-12 [Spanakopida]: Does it really take that much longer to hit 2 more keys? Really? If you practice typing correctly, it gets pretty easy after a while.

2005-04-12 [Panda-monium]: I completely agree, and I use lol, as well, along with a couple others, like brb. But to tlk lke ths wit no vwls in ur wrds. THAT is going to far!

2005-04-12 [RAGE!!!]: Well I spend enough time pressing in all the right keys in the many essays I received. We all need a break sometimes guys!Try taking three essay subjects! Grinds on you after a while!

2005-04-12 [RAGE!!!]: I mean I understand, I like the English language, it's rather spiffing in fact! But, it just seems a bit nit-picking that there must be a wiki dedicated to using the correct words (much is specified as not being lol, although it seems many of you use it) on merely a random site on the internet! If elftown was somekind of literary book critique site or something, i may be ableto understand. But please,come on...

2005-04-12 [Panda-monium]: I take Biology, English, and other such heavy Essay courses, but I still think It's a good idea to type whole words. And I will talk to people who use it, and I don't complain all the time like some people do, I just think it shows a deterioration of our species as a whole.

2005-04-12 [RAGE!!!]: Hehe, ok,if you feel so strongly about it..

2005-04-12 [Panda-monium]: lmao, nah, I don';t feel that strongly about it, just find it sad.

2005-04-13 [MadBiscuit]: It really irritates me when some random person sends me a message saying "yo how r u wassup babe" . Once I actually told one of them to spell words properly and they didn't understand what I meant. It's chilling.

2005-04-13 [Blackshire]: Same here. Random twelve year old girls message me going, "how old r u". I always go to "view messages" and if there're chatspeak messages, I just delete 'em on the spot.

2005-04-13 [Spanakopida]: It just bothers me that people can do that and be okay okay with it. it's like they don't realize how incredibly stupid they sound. You type well enough, rage with three exclamation points. I'm not talking about absolute grammatic perfection, I'm talking about a simple effort to be understood by typing in understandable english.

2005-04-13 [RAGE!!!]: Haha! I thought you may start to give implications of what an idiotic name I have!!:D Blimey, there's more than just spelling people!Ahem *puts on very best monotone, sardonic voice* For your information it's merely a word a friend and I shared a particular liking of last summer. Well, anyway, understood...

2005-04-13 [Charybdis]: Nothing like a good inside joke :p

2005-04-13 [Juzam]: Hey dudes, i agree with the whole spelling in full, but don't start having a go at my friend [RAGE!!!] for not doing what you people think is correct. Let everyone do as they want and respect them for it.

2005-04-13 [Blackshire]: I think it's a reasonable debate with two views, not an insultive one.

2005-04-13 [RAGE!!!]: Oh hello! You were on my page a second ago!

2005-04-13 [Blackshire]: Hello.

2005-04-13 [RAGE!!!]: Had an urge to put "lol" then but remembering the rules...Haha, how are you?

2005-04-13 [Blackshire]: Very annoyed though with some dipshit, but other than that I guess I could say I'm alright. God, he's such a big blubbering moron and he doesn't even realize it.

2005-04-13 [Blackshire]: How are you?

2005-04-13 [RAGE!!!]: Hehe, and how come? Yeah, I'm not too bad thanks, just telling myself off for not going to sleep yet!

2005-04-13 [Blackshire]: It's a long story. All that matters is he's a big blubbering moron and everything about him I can paradox, but it won't work since he won't realize how much of an irritating idiot he is.

2005-04-14 [Spanakopida]: Does it seem like I'm "having a go" at [RAGE!!!]? I didn't mean it that way.

2005-04-14 [MadBiscuit]: Some people get easily offended.

2005-04-14 [RAGE!!!]: It's all good people!

2005-04-14 [Blackshire]: Offended

2005-04-14 [pelv13]: that wiki has been in the comments of maybe 4 or five wikis i am in

2005-04-14 [Blackshire]: The best wiki ever.

2005-04-14 [RAGE!!!]: Ooo, I've never seen that before! Hefty amount of writing!

2005-04-14 [Blackshire]: I deeply admire whoever took the time and effort to write that.

2005-04-14 [RAGE!!!]: Same, I wouldn't have the patience!

2005-04-28 [Radioactive Flea]: I wouldn't worry about offending anyone. Infact if I did then I probably wouldn't speak at all cosidering I don't speak often. The funny thing about internet conversation is that it's lacking facial expression and tonal changes to either mellow out or emphasis a phrase.

2005-04-28 [MadBiscuit]: Yes. And you can never tell when someones being sarcastic. I have gotten the wrong end of the stick many times.

2005-05-10 [bookworym]: I kind of like using chat speak sometimes when I'm in a hurry.

2005-05-10 [Spanakopida]: XD it's harder for me to type in chatspeak than it is for me to type normally. so That would be totally counterproductive to me.

2005-05-10 [Charybdis]: Heh, same here.. I have to think about it.

2005-05-11 [VampireChick08]: But I love "lol" and "thanx" and "pic"!

2005-05-13 [MadBiscuit]: I just use a load of smilies. ^___________^

2005-05-15 [VampireChick08]: tehe he :D who doesn't?

2005-05-15 [Charybdis]: Well, since it's impossible to show facial expression when chatting, it always comes in handy, especially for sarcasm ^^

2005-05-16 [MadBiscuit]: Yep.

2005-05-17 [pelv13]: as i always say, it is hard to express emotion in times new roman

2005-05-17 [MadBiscuit]: Heh, that's true enough.

2005-05-21 [VampireChick08]: i like comic sans ms as a font

2005-05-22 [Spanakopida]: I hate comic sans.

2005-05-22 [MadBiscuit]: My favourite is Copperplate Gothic.

2005-05-22 [Charybdis]: I like Palatino Linotype.. I can actually use it for term papers without teachers tracking me down and complaining that it's not academic enough :p

2005-05-22 [MadBiscuit]: We usually do things by hand in my school.

2005-05-22 [Charybdis]: My teachers won't accept papers that aren't typed -_-;

2005-05-23 [Cap'n]: I'm an Ariel man myself. Nice, smooth, professional, and utterly lacking in any personal expression.

2005-05-24 [Charybdis]: Which is what I don't like about it, haha. To each his (or her) own :)

2005-05-26 [pelv13]: i tend to use franklin gothic medium with the smallest type set i can get

2005-05-27 [Spanakopida]: I personally like andale mono. Clean, fixed width. Usually 9 or 10pt

2005-05-27 [MadBiscuit]: This is such a strange conversation...

2005-05-27 [Charybdis]: You know, I was just thinking the same thing... :p Funny how we all have our personal favourite fonts. I have to admit, I'd never thought about it before.

2005-05-27 [Reene]: Unless the first sentence is supposed to be ironic, it needs some spellchecking and grammar-tweaking.

2005-05-29 [Spanakopida]: A lot of people are misinterpreting the point of the wiki.

2005-06-02 [serendipity flicious]: so what's the point? and am i allowed to not capatalize things? oops, does spelling count?

2005-06-03 [Spanakopida]: The point is not to butcher the english laguage with "chatspeak".

2005-06-09 [greyhart]: Hmmm, maybe people are taking this wiki a little too seriously.

2005-06-10 [Spanakopida]: They are.

2005-06-18 [serendipity flicious]: ah. well, i'm lazy. how are you supposed to convey feeling? smilies? i think people aren't totally sure what they can and can't do.

2005-06-18 [Spanakopida]: I'm confused. You convey feeling through the words you type, how you use them and the type of punctuation you use.

2005-06-20 [serendipity flicious]: ok, i could say "you drive me crazy." is that true or false? i could be joking, or i could actually feel that way. (you don't, by the way, everybody loves michelle. although i have this strange feeling that i've made a habit out of driving you crazy.)

2005-06-20 [Spanakopida]: It's a statement that is assumed true until further stated that you were joking. Or, the addition of an emoticon can convey the feel of the sentence the way that just words could not. Like, if (: was after it, It would probably be considered a playful joke, whereas if you put DX after it, it could be considered exasperating.

2005-06-29 [Pontius Pilate]: liek tootally doode hey what aboot overspeeeeeling?

2005-06-29 [Spanakopida]: That's annoying. The end.

2005-07-05 [Doormat]: Comment Poll: Which is worse 'chatspeak' or '1337$p34|<'?

2005-07-06 [Spanakopida]: Both combined

2005-07-11 [greyhart]: leetspeak is annoying if you're not the one typing...otherwise it's kinda fun to type...

2005-07-21 [little bubbles]: huh? help me out here, i'm blonde and yes i read it but i still don't get what's being talked about?

2005-07-25 [AbLam]: hmm..never heard of leetspeak..but it makes sense. In a non-sense way.

2005-07-25 [Doormat]: Nonsense doesn't have a hyphen...Dang fool :)

2005-07-26 [AbLam]: i meant it in a different sense...like it makes sense in a non-sense making kind of way..see? SEE? o-O

2005-07-26 [MadBiscuit]: I see! ^_^ We be on the same wavelength. *makes wavelength gestures*

2005-07-27 [Doormat]: 'Tis a pun! (Jumps off a bridge)

2005-07-28 [AbLam]: YESSSS!....why are we jumping off a bridge???

2005-07-29 [greyhart]: 1337$p34|<  <---- that is the word leetspeak in leetspeak....for those that were confused.

2005-07-29 [Spanakopida]: it can be typed any number of different ways.

2005-07-29 [AbLam]: It's easier to type without numbers...maybe that's just me?

2005-07-30 [calamaethor]: It's called chat speak, not chatspeak. Sentence, not sentance. I not i.  Correct yourself before correcting others.

2005-07-30 [Spanakopida]: whether there is a space in "chatspeak" or not is personal prefrence, and any uncapitilized "I"s are typos. There is a difference between not being bothered to care at all and grammatical errors, typos, and/or simply not knowing how to spell something. I am not a grammar and spelling nazi, and I'm not trying to correct anyone. This wiki is a statement. I am saying "I dislike people who type obnoxiously who don't care at all about even attempting to use proper english" If you try, that is fine with me. Typos are not a crime.

2005-07-30 [calamaethor]: 1. Try look up chat speak in the dictionary.

2005-07-30 [calamaethor]: 2. "There is a difference between not being bothered to care at all and grammatical errors,"  well why did you insult me for using u instead of you? I would most definatly call that not being bothered to use the full word.

2005-07-30 [calamaethor]: Owh never mind. Sorry about that. I was trying to get back on you because of our little argument. Lets just say that were even :) And trust me, I am able to use proper english. Sometimes I just dont bother to do that. Its not because i think its cool or anything. So lets say everything is ok now :)

2005-07-30 [Spanakopida]: I know.

2005-07-31 [AbLam]: It's all airy, then.

2005-08-02 [Doormat]: 1. [calamaethor] it's definitely, not "definatly" 2. It's let's not "lets". 3. It's we're not "were". 4. You don't capitalize "And" 5. Don't use 3 goddamn different sentences to prove a point.

2005-08-03 [AbLam]: Oooh, this should be good. 8-)*eye roll*

2005-08-03 [calamaethor]: Dude, please reread the comments first. We "definitely" stated" that there is a difference between being bothered to type that way and grammatical errors. As I said earlier, " Correct yourself before correcting others". I do know that I'm not perfect, and I do need you people to correct me, but you need that 2. That is the only thing I tried to say. Look at this my little "friend", "I was trying to get back on you because of our little argument." This conversation goes way beyond this wiki. If you really want to get involved, please follow it from the beginning. Thank you on advance = )

2005-08-03 [MadBiscuit]: Hey, I support good grammar and spelling, but do we actually have to argue about it? Chill, people.

2005-08-04 [AbLam]: Yeah, well, you should check out fake goths... the argument is endless! Up until [mutant virago] came in and shut us all up, anyway! =9

2005-08-04 [MadBiscuit]: Amazing.

2005-08-04 [AbLam]: Yeah, and dumb. [calamaethor] is starting this one, though.

2005-08-04 [calamaethor]: I am shocked [AbLam]... I thought you were on my side!!  :'(

2005-08-06 [Spanakopida]: Lots of usernames!

2005-08-07 [AbLam]: Well, seeing as how we had a five-page-long fight..or something..I'm not on anyone's side on this one. But you did start it. But let's not quarrel, it seems to have ended where it started.

2005-08-10 [Doormat]: When did I need correcting, [calamaethor]?

2005-08-11 [AbLam]: Okay, that's it. I'm just gonna lettit gooo.

2005-08-11 [calamaethor]: Dude, please just shut up. "You" does not necessarily refer to DiabloJr.(you)."You" is also plural. I was refering to some other people. Please make sure to read the entire conversation before you get yourself involved. Thank you =)

2005-08-11 [Cap'n]: *Coughs* "3. Be civil. If someone comes on the wiki who is disobeying the rules, do not flip out on them. Be polite and decent like the decent and polite people you are." *Coughs* Such wasted time and energy on pointless arguments.

2005-08-12 [AbLam]: Yet we all(me included) seem to do it.

2005-08-17 [MadBiscuit]: It must be a human weakness.

2005-08-18 [AbLam]: Yeah, I suspect it is...anybody who said that they didn't enjoy a good argument once in a while...well, everyone does it. But, [Doormat]'s comment 'when did I need correcting' did not merit a 'dude, please just shut up', [calamaethor].

2005-08-18 [MadBiscuit]: Why can't we all just leave the squabbling and eat mangoes? They solved the arguments in one of the gay marriage guilds. ^_^

2005-08-18 [AbLam]: Mmm...mangoes.

2005-08-19 [Cina]: Hello! ^_^ I agree wholeheartedly with this wiki.

2005-08-19 [Yiwerra]: aaaaah [AbLam] is here               omglol

2005-08-19 [MadBiscuit]: Mangoes, people. Remember the mangoes.

2005-08-20 [AbLam]: [Yiwerra]??? It's YOU! You ARE stalking me!!!! ^^

2005-08-21 [Yiwerra]: oh no, you again!!!!! no no no, you stalk ME >_<

2005-08-21 [AbLam]: Oh, suuure, mrs. I am a Stalker! Ooooh...burn.

2005-08-21 [MadBiscuit]: MANGOES.

2005-08-22 [Yiwerra]: :P

2005-08-23 [calamaethor]: lovely MANGOES!

2005-08-24 [AbLam]: I like mangoes. They taste good!

2005-08-24 [Yiwerra]: yes they do.

2005-08-24 [MadBiscuit]: And they save the day, once again.

2005-08-24 [Yiwerra]: i don't have any, only hairy peaches

2005-08-24 [AbLam]: So, anyways. Does anyone else hate those names with tons of numbers and underscores?

2005-08-25 [Yiwerra]: ME!

2005-08-25 [AbLam]: Allo, [Yiwerra]! We met yet again on elftown guards suk ass!.

2005-08-25 [Yiwerra]: yes!!!! :D i am there. then again, i had a wiki against the guards too once, so i am not going to get into the argument there :P

2005-08-25 [AbLam]: Really? I never knew...

2005-08-25 [Yiwerra]: yea. then again, i can't remember what the reason was.. :p

2005-08-25 [AbLam]: Well, I've only been on here since april, so I haven't really made any actual wikis...

2005-08-25 [Spanakopida]: Awww guys, don't hate on the guards.

2005-08-25 [AbLam]: I don't hate on the guards..elftown guards suk ass! hates on the guards!

2005-08-25 [Spanakopida]: yeah, just a little.

2005-08-25 [AbLam]: Well, being as intelligent as they are, we should TRUST them!

2005-08-26 [Yiwerra]: whom?

2005-08-26 [AbLam]: The guard haters!! Heh I was being sarcastic!

2005-08-26 [Yiwerra]: oh them :P  now i see ^___^

2005-08-26 [AbLam]: Yeah, they are sooo literate, saying the elftown guards SUK ass.

2005-08-26 [Yiwerra]: well i think they feel special by spelling like this on purpose.

2005-08-26 [MadBiscuit]: I think that's the root of the problem with all n00bs.

2005-08-26 [AbLam]: But no one will take them seriously if they suffer from the extreme inability to add that one C in suck. Actually, I don't think anyone does regardless of their spelling. Who the hell cares if they can't have sparkly pictures on their houses? I mean, they look tacky anyways.

2005-08-27 [Yiwerra]: it's called 'anyway', [AbLam] :P   and to be honest, like .. to be REALLY honest, as fucking honest as i could only be: those people who don't take people serious only because they don't spell properly, which means they belong to some particular category for those people - THEY are pathetic. that honestly is really really pathetic, and i can't stand them even more than those who are actually idiots. (although not spelling properly doesn't generally mean you're in idiot. some people just didin't learn it, or they have another mother tongue, OR they just know things because they are colloquial. like 'anyways'.)

2005-08-27 [Spanakopida]: I THINK YOU MAY BE IN THE WRONG WIKI THEN LOLOLOL

2005-08-27 [Yiwerra]: WHY ARE YOU USING CAPS LOCK?  and as you noticed, i didn't join. i just discussed here. if that annoys anyone, i can leave any time.

2005-08-27 [Spanakopida]: BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE IT RIGHT NOW, OKAY? IS THAT SUCH A CRIME? If you were wondering, I was being highly sarcastic, or joking-ly or whatever.

2005-08-27 [Yiwerra]: ITS OK! JUST BECAUSE I WAS YELLING TOO, DOESN'T IMPLY THAT I'M ANGRY ABOUT IT! you have the right to do whatever you want, of course. and yea, it was sort of funny ^___^

2005-08-28 [AbLam]: Tee Hee. How I love sarcasm.

2005-08-28 [Yiwerra]: irony is good too.

2005-08-28 [MadBiscuit]: Mmm, irony.

2005-08-28 [Yiwerra]: yea, that was obviously irony.

2005-08-28 [AbLam]: Irony! I wonder how it tastes...iron-y...he...Abby laughed at her little funny.

2005-08-29 [MadBiscuit]: I'm laughing so hard right now..."Yaaaay, boobies!" said Fred...

2005-08-29 [AbLam]: Boobies are frowned upon, Abby said in a disapproving voice.

2005-09-01 [Tolmeni]: ...Upon reading most of these posts, I have decided that [Spanakopida] is collecting like-minded people for her army of undead nutcases. Prepare the holy gravy!

2005-09-02 [AbLam]: Yumm...gravy. *shakes head* Uhh....oh, sorry? I guess we arre....like-minded..*has no idea what that means*

2005-09-02 [Spanakopida]: Aren't wikis usually places where like-minded people collect, generally in the first place?

2005-09-02 [Spanakopida]: I apologise, that was a terrible, terrible sentence.

2005-09-02 [AbLam]: Wikis, not wiki's. I guess so...but what does like-minded mean?

2005-09-10 [RAGE!!!]: I agree with Yiwerra!

2005-09-22 [MadBiscuit]: Like-minded means thinking alike,e.g, "Tony Blair and George Bush are like-minded." Goddamn them.

2005-09-23 [pelv13]: [RAGE!!!]'s last comment was a very good display of like-minded thinking

2005-09-26 [AbLam]: So. Any0ne feel12G k00l 2d@y?

2005-10-04 [Tolmeni]: YOU SHALL BE SLAUGHTERED WITH AN IRON SALAD TONG FOR CHATSPEAKING!

2005-10-04 [Spanakopida]: YOU SHALL BE PUNCHED IN THE OVARIES FOR NOT REALIZING THAT WAS SARCASM.

2005-10-05 [MadBiscuit]: *sits in a corner and eats mangoes* People need to chill. Here, have a mango.

2005-10-06 [cookie_monster]: *takes mango* Thank you. How does one go about punching someone in the ovaries?

2005-10-07 [AbLam]: I'm gonna kick you in the SPLEEN!

2005-10-08 [MadBiscuit]: Just go up to them and go "Hey, your shoelaces are undone." Then punch 'em.

2005-10-08 [AbLam]: In the liver.

2005-10-09 [Spanakopida]: No, in the ovaries.

2005-10-09 [AbLam]: Okay.

2005-11-03 [MadBiscuit]: Mmm, ovaries.

2005-11-05 [fungyew]: i love u

2005-11-05 [AbLam]: Directs [fungyew] to pimpz r us.

2005-11-06 [Spanakopida]: ._.

2005-11-28 [MadBiscuit]: How odd.

2005-12-31 [Pyra]: That was quite strange...

2006-01-10 [MadBiscuit]: See? The Biscuit is always right.

2006-01-10 [Pyra]: O.o. quite.

2006-01-14 [MadBiscuit]: Ah, oui.

2006-01-25 [Kiddalee]: Has anyone here seen Good Grammar?

2006-01-28 [L?se]: Now I have. Looks good. (:

2006-01-29 [raynesprite]: ARGH XD this is awful ^^" I use some chatspeak some times >.> but just to express my personality not to shorten anything I say because Im lazy I love to chat and I dont really care how people type as long as its understandable ^_^

2006-01-29 [Pyra]: RAY! Bwah! I haven't see you around ET in forever! ^-^ Hola darlin

2006-01-31 [raynesprite]: *blinks* !!-.- O.O -.- O.O!!....PYRA!! *pounce*

2006-01-31 [Pyra]: Hahaha, nice to see you too! ^-^ *points at rayn* This chick is brilliant, I swear!

2006-04-07 [Cenyre]: I don't like people who "butcher" the English language anymore than you guys seem to, but it's the ones who use "u" instead of "you" or "r" instead of "are" and so on who annoy me, not people who use "lol". What's wrong with "lol"?? 

2006-04-08 [Clue]: Nothing's wrong with 'lol' as long as it's used in moderation. Some people over use the phrase

2006-05-21 [DracoDormiens]: People who say "Lol" when it's no reason to laugh out loud, should be slaughtered. "You're a bitch, lol" or "My father just died, lol". They are out there, I have seen em!

2006-10-06 [H3_six]: Yeah it is overused. When my brother was playing Runescape one of his friends was using that phrase to chat to him. He asked me what it meant and I said 'lots of Love' He didn't talk to that friend for a week. ( :  oop lol.

2007-04-08 [RAGE!!!]: lol

2007-05-25 [Mr. Wonka]: Hello. Personally, I try to keep my orthograph correct, but 1337 speak is, I think awesome for parodies and having fun, and confusing you Computer Art teacher. ^^
