im newbsor

With the advent of the internet, instant messaging and phone texting the written word has been changing quite a bit. Once upon a time computer literate people that didn't want the government filters flagging their emails and electronic communication formed an idea of how to defeat word flagging software. If you replace certain letters in a word with numbers and special characters then the filters ignore them. These people considered themselves to be the elite of the computer world and named their rearranged typed language "Elite". It's called "Leet" or "1337" which is the leet way of spelling "leet".

While the form and grammar are technically incorrect and the flow is difficult to comprehend this seems to be a kind of slang language that isn't going away.

Or at least that is how I understand it.

That's not funny.... :eek:
 
So I'm guessing what, 14-15 years old?

Let's get a pool going on this people! ;)
 
I notice that you're 18, and this typing style is consistant across every single thread you've participated in or started- this tells me you may be a Troll, but are just as likely a sincere person, who doesn't value his own words enough, to clearly state them. If one doesn't care enough about one's own words, to use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation- why should anyone else care to read them?

"i just rush my typin always have and will"

With that attitude, yes you will... and in the adult world, the reaction you get will be quite similar, if not harsher, than the one you have seen, here. Slow down.

... just a nickle's worth of free advice.

Oh I guess I should've read this closer. You're a temporary teacher at a college.

That makes all the difference in the world.

Thank Heavens it wasn't Elementary education.

Yes, it's good to know that our public schools are graduating into the world those such as this. And then employing them as 'teachers'... temporary or otherwise. Whatever that means.

Being unfamilar with people here, perhaps I am misunderstanding your intent. To clarify, my post was simply meant in jest.

While on the topic, each of the posts that I have contributed this thread has been parodic. Such as:
Relax. You won't get your membership card for a while. - - cut - -
Take your time. You have a day or two to figure it out
(As tacky as it is to quote oneself. :eek: )
Please, do excuse any misconception. Thank you.

Mine wasn't meant in jest.

Mine was sarcasm.

You're welcome.

I do believe I finally “get it”. You are the 'dark soul' of the forum, preferring the sharp, harsh, bitter mockery of others. Perhaps it was not so evident in your other posts scattered throughout.

While I was aware that the forum was a place for people to voice their thoughts, ideas, and opinions, I had no clue that the required undertone was built on animosity toward new members.

Oh you cut me to the quick darling.
My guess is you've been pming with other "regular" members and they gave you a heads up about me.

Keep your eyes open. There are others here who are much harsher and unkind than I.

ADR is not the dark soul of the forum. No one is taking this person seriously and you know it. I think that flaming ADR is not very smart.


As for this person being a new member. Take a long walk down reality street.

Now try to flame ME!

I'm not sure what you're asking here. You might want to check your spelling and sentence structure.
If you're curious about BDSM, you could read a bit in our library.

Ummm...forgive me but the "Location: South Carolina" probably clarifies your confusion?
 
An addendum...

As a college educator, I just have to add that while I'm appalled I'm, unfortunately, also not surprised to learn of said gentleman's occupation (notice I did not say "vocation").

In defense of higher education everywhere, please remember there are many unaccredited, "fly-by-night" colleges where literally anyone is qualified to be a "professor."

Thank you for clarifying that for me. lol

You mean we spent all of that time in school for nothing?

My daughter just graduated college with an education degree. I know full well that this is not the norm of what any resposible school, higher education or elementary ed, would consider a hireable person.

I also know all the hoops one has to jump through just to subsitute teach in Clark County. It's not easy to do. And I know that here at least, it would be hard for an 18 year old (if that's even true) to be employed at the school district in that job position.

I find this entire thread to be satire and I've played along with it. ;-)

kajiraahava? I'm guessing she pm'd some regular poster and they told her that "ADR is the dark soul of Lit." And obviously someone who knows me intimately well, yes?

I can see that but why was she not liking what you posted when she was posting with you and sarcastically (toward the thread not you) also?
Sometimes this place makes my head hurt dolly.
