Edited by: flaming phantom on 25/11/2006 05:22:45 Edited by: flaming phantom on 25/11/2006 05:21:26 often in the forums i run into slang wich i dont understand becasue its this game specific and i haven't been playing to long. i think in here we need a sticky about all the slang here, so if this could be stickied and everyone post all slang not listed i will add it to the list. thanks

Sure. I have some you can add.... right from your own text.
no1 = no one plz = please u = you
A quick search of forums turned up these :
pwnedwtfbbq = you were killed by "timmy 4 yr old (tm)" omgzhi2u = oh my god. Hello to you.
A lot of slang on these forums, some of it may or may not be eve specific. Though I dont think I have seen pwnedwtfbbq used anywhere else.

well that slang i used is common all over internet, like chat rooms, emails, and other online games. i guess i took a liberty in thinking that every1 would understand what those mean, highly doubtful, but its possible that some1 had this as thier first online experience, so ill just leave it out becasue 99% of newbs reading this will know what plz, u and ty mean

Nice idea, fp.
I think one very important thing you can point out is that a PDS used to be called a PDU (Unit, not System) and many older players refer to a PDS as a PDU. That caused me no end of confusion when I started playing EVE. -----

I would like to know the history/explanation behind the "tin-foil hat" that everyone seems to like to don in the alliance discussion forum

This isn't eve specific. In fact, I think a lot of forum members here actually get the usage wrong.
There are people in this world who believe that alien motherships float above earth controlling the populace with special radio waves. Or they believe that the CIA is controlling/reading people, or transmitting via people. All sorts of stuff like that. The tinfoil hat thing comes in because these people typically believe that al-foil will block the waves. Thus they wear hats made out of tinfoil in order to block aliens from controlling them.
In other words, if someone is "wearing a tinfoil hat" it means they are crazy/believe too strongly in conspiracy theories or unlikely truths. -------------------------------------
