Not really, unless we're talking about MMOs or being "afk" in public
While wow may not be the most popular thing around here, acting like an AFK tauren in public really is fun

Instead of saying lol I actually laugh in real life. Unless lol means something else. But I don't say it anyway, not even in EVE.

I have heard people say 'Lawl' on Vent/TS and at first I found it strange but after a short while I got used to it.
Personaly I do not say 'lawl' or anything like that. I do end up using internet/EVE/Ghost Recon and a few other game phrases and terminology when talking with my wife or friends who also play the same games or understand what's being said.
As long as everyone in the conversation understands the inside joke then it good.

It means Laugh Out Loud. I've been on the internet since the year it went public. You think text messaging kids today have a lot of abreviations you should have seen early IRC. Trust me, LOL = Laugh Out Loud.
Oh and "el oh el" is the proper way to say it too. ___________

I don't, no.
However I've just started a course at my local college and a few of the kids that are also on the course (I'm considerably older than everyone else there) say "lol". It sounds so stupid :(

Saying "lol" or "Rofl" in RL is against the rules of the internet.

<dreamer> Gargamale: a girl that posts on the local goth forum used to think lol meant lots of love, and got a rather rude awakening after someone's mother died - "how was the funeral? lol" <Jesterace> haha <Gargamale> LOL
reminded me of that from bash.org.

I don't say it, have happened sometimes that I use it around computer people but only as a joke.

I almost started to do that a while back. Thank goodness I took a step back and re-examined where I was in life to resort to saying "lol" or "rofl" in real life.

A part of me dies inside everytime I hear it said on TS or vent. lulz I don't mind because its usually someone being an ass which is ok. But my brain cries every time i hear stfu or ell oh ell. saying stfu makes no sense to me as its much more fun to say shut the F up as you get to emphasize the F word. In public I caught my self almost saying I gotta go afk real quick.. sometimes if i'm talking on the phone while using the computer i will press the scroll button on the mouse out of habit.
