Classic British Flight Sim

I would agree with the above
Heh I bet you can tell I used to play a lot of CS instead of doing my coursework

I only know a few bits n bobs, mainly as a result of studying with some computer geeks and gamers at uni. Cant really see the point personally, no offence

Confused

Whats "leet speak"

leif

I presume it's something to do with what Jonesey posted.. whatever that was :roll: I think we may be too old to understand Leif.. or, we're neither 'Cool' or 'In the groove'

Regardless, I'm not sure any 'Personal attack' has happened which is why I've refrained from commenting up to now. If anyone insists on going against the flow, then by doing so, they will attract attention and where this appears habitual.. you end up with the situation we've seen here recently. A not too dissimilar incident a couple of weeks ago did involve what I consider to be a personal attack and that member is no longer part of our community.

I'll leave it at that

I had to do a google: A simple explanation of Leetspeak:

Although it doesn't explain the need for an alternative language when most young English speakers haven't even mastered their native tongue

I used to spend a lot of time in South Africa where there is sometimes still a residue of apartheid in the way rich Whites deal with Blacks in the service industry. There is an informal lingua franca, called fanagalore, which developed in the Gold Mines to allow workers with a huge variety of languages to communicate. There are so many languages spoken in South Africa by immigrant workers that it is still a useful communications tool. I expressed a desire to learn it to my friend from Jo'burg. "Why?" he asked. "So that I can have conversations with the local people". He was genuinely bemused. "It's not necessary - they understand orders in English". :roll:

Come on Joe.

It's "Dirty " Harry
"Sonny" Bono
& "Joe" Public.

you only get away when you die in misterious circumstances
and become "John" Doe.
