OK I just have to vent a little here. It seems that we have an entire section of society now that thinks they are somehow cool, or elite because they have dug up an ancient hacker language and started using it. I'm new to this forum, but I'm seeing it on many other forums that I'm a long standing member of as well and it drives me nucking futs. From here on, I will not answer any thread that asks for help if you can't speak proper fvcking english and make your problem clear and easy to understand for those of us kind enough to reply. And this is directed at no one in particular, I just watched idiocracy again and it scares me how close it sometimes paralells everyday society, that's all. Maybe I'm just getting old, but damn how hard is it to talk in plain english when the keyboard you are using was designed around it?
