FTW can also be Fuck the World

I think we've forgotten perhaps the MOST IMPORTANT, the MOST NECCESSARY, and the MOST OFTEN USED EXPRESSION....

noob.

Also newb.

Sometimes noobie.

Noob (Noun) n*u*b

1. A Very inexperienced person. 2. Someone who is inexperienced but uses techniques sometimes reffered to as cheating to beat others. 3. Someone who acts like an ass to everyone, regardless of how nice they are. 4. Someone who names their multiplayer name something god-awful just to make them laugh when they see it or when it is used. Example: Yo momma, as in |You were killed by: yo momma|  or |Yo momma is coming!|

 

 

Please feel free to add on any more definitions to noob.

I agree with that to some extent, but injecting some clever humor can make your games a little better. (IMO)

Having a toon named "Parts" then earn and keep a rank of "Private" will earn you a toon (with title).

"Private Parts"

It only works if it's tastefull and in good humor.

What about "Jedi Master Jar Jar"?

Reply #58 from Sins Forums Top

I agree Jedmonds, but i goes too far when someone names themselves (Warning, not suitable for small childrenz) "hot semen". 

I mean seriously now. Too far. It was a guy on Halo CE. I wanted to beat him to death with a sniper rifle.

DRM stands for Digital Rights Management - copy protection, usually SecuROM or Starforce.

Reply #70 from Stardock Forums Top

Excuse me for the abstract point. I was just making an ixy.

Derived from ICS, which stands for Intrasemantic Convenience Statement. You won't know that one. Basically, I came up with it to explain an internet action which doesn't quite make sense to anyone other than the perveyor. When I say internet action, I tend to mean a post, but this term can apply to any action online.

w00t!

brazilian = someone who changes fonts and text color frequently

lamer = someone who sucks so bad they don't get that everybody else is in therapy just to tolerate them

teh gay / teh gai = "the gay" meaning stupid or pointless, as in people who pronounce pwned "p-owned" are teh gay

OHai!***K!ThxBai! = "Oh, hi!" /stupid message, always lacking spaces/ "Okay, thank you, good bye!" Currently used mostly to imitate the preteen chat/texting kids who don't know their native tongue, but it wasn't too long ago you saw it more from the imitatees.
