DCK Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Some of my mate WoW nerds use words like 'plx', 'nubs' and 'lol' in real life. Come on people. YOU'RE FRICKING DUTCH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eenuh Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I heard someone say 'OMG' today (separate letters), which is strange enough since we don't speak English. Still it was sorta as a joke. No text speak crap for us, as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not noticed anyone using this kind of stuff in real life. It would just sound a bit daft. Although I do call people noobs and say pwn in a piss taking ironic way sometimes when gaming with friends. Generally I just try and keep clear of the whole shebang.

The Peeps Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 The only thing I say is lol but not in real life, only on teamspeak with my online gaming nerds... I mean friends :wink: . I hate that I say it though, I started just as a joke to make fun of the other people that were saying but then it became habit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
