    • Yes.
    • No.

    5) if the person has enough symbolic reasoning to read/write in 1337, then the have enough reasoning to know the differance between normal writing and 1337 writing.

    6) yes I like people who use 1337 in video games, I consider them tasty with a bit of salt since they're so well seasoned with stupidity.  yes I hate 1337 speak in video games.

    Could we once and for all rename l33t speak to 54d speak?

    I mean sure, it was a little bit cool 10 years ago when no one but the introduced understood it.

    Today it is just a sad display of idiocy.

    £o£, ?£?!! No leet speakers here!! Only the guys who use numerical values in place of letters. I think thats called"Gimp" leet speak. ???

    What is called leet speak started as a  guild could communicate in Dark Age of Camelot and World of Warcraft pvp servers. When normally the guild could not talk to a enemy realm. Since then every little teenagers and groupie friends have made it fashionable. kk,tnks
