be specific about exactly what you dont understand please ,i havent heard anyone else complaining ,u probablly are not familiar with internet slang to be honest. thiers a book on it i hear!!! amazon probably if u need help im sure they can help u with ur problems with online forums,
be good and dont worry you will soon pick it up,im advanced internet slang ,takes about 3 yrs online
also if u pick on peoples info no matter what its written in, i think its called flamming, not kool to be honest.

Hey st1gzee, I'm not thick, and I wasnt flaming you, but your comment here has made me mad! I wasnt the only one who didnt understand all your "slang" as you call it, so maybe you might like to apologise for flaming ME!

This thread is quite amusing.. if not horribly off topic

I've been using the internet for about the last 10 years or so, and have used it in anger for the last 3 years (by anger I mean pretty much 8.30-7pm weekdays and a fair amount over the weekend). I develop sites all day long and use e-mail, MSN IM etc more than talking when it comes to clients etc.

And personally I don't like internet h4x0r speaking etc... because it takes you longer to read it. If you have the time and patience, fair enough. if you don't I tend to ignore it!

PS this isn't a go at anyone, just my two pence worth

I'll attempt a translation...

Nice one, you have all done a lot of homework on this model, but I'm still having problems finding a website with just Alures information on so I can see the differences. I mean, why call it an "Alure"? Is it the extra sporty bits (by the way, thankyou for the link matey, nice one) or is it my web search language?

I know one thing today and that is it's more of an ellude that an Alure for me at the moment

As I have 3 weeks, 6 days and 2 days to go until delivery, if you're following my progress (by the way my name is Derek as well matey... weird or fate, 2 "del boys" with a 206CC.... WHAT!?!? Talk about a tangent...

Ok i give up. Personally I find punctuation rather useful!

PS st1gzee...

In case you haven't guessed, 99% of people on here don't use internet slang and prefer to read normal Queen's English! OK this site is on the internet but virtually all people here are car lovers and not internet hackers.

You'll probably get more response to any questions if you wrote them normally so people who are not used to internet slang can read them.

Cheers mate

n1 thx for that m8y!

but what about r0x0r and h4xor... can't make anything of that
but that's just because i'm a n00bs (that means newbie doesn't it?

)

MattB · Post by **MattB** » Thu Oct 16, 2003 7:32 pm

Hehe well r0x0r is supposed to be something like "that rocks" (I think) and h4xor is some kind of hacking thing...

So what does RTF stand for?!

Phew! Glad thats sorted...must be an age thing!!

RTF · Post by **RTF** » Fri Oct 17, 2003 9:03 pm

Close call...

But nah... RTF is short for a house song from somewhere in the nineties when i first became familiar with internet during college i felt the need for a nickname and well i never bothered to think of another one...
My first name is Reinier but the other two have nothing else to do with my name... (though i can think of some words

).

Btw, this internet style language takes more time typing, because everytime you're typing a word you must think of a short way to type it. ehich takes longer then just to quickly typ it imo.

i posted a sort of shorthand version (crime 1)
many people farmiliar with msn can tell you this(crime 2)
sorry i aint got a silver spoon at present (crime 3)
and if u dont understand my writing its tough luck,(crime 4)
just a few questions though dear moderator
was my original post negative atall?
and was it really so hard to interpret that it deserves a grammer lesson from others?
well ,thanks for the nice warm welcome
p.s just as well i aint chinese or summit ,fok id be banned already lol
btw apolagize 2 the upset girl that i thought might be flamming me,tbh it did sound like a flamming ,but if it aint then np.i forgive ya dude

MattB · Post by **MattB** » Sun Oct 19, 2003 12:40 pm

No your original post wasn't negative in any way, and I never meant to imply that. It's fair enough that if people don't understand what you're typing then they won't bother reading the posts and won't answer your questions.

The majority of people on here do not understand the way you type, and yes it was hard to interpret for people who don't know internet slang. You're mroe than welcome to carry no typing messages in this way, but you'll probably find that you don't get may replies.

Welcome to the board by the way.. we're not a bunch of nasty people

Just a bit simple and naive.. (uh-oh I've done it now!)
