Of course, to be fair, anyone with a healthy chunk of knowledge can keep a fairly stable/secure Windows OS. But then, how many people are as knowledgeable with computers as us? Considering the vast stories of Computer Stupidities (google "Computer Stupidities", I dare you -- funny stuff), I highly doubt that it's a majority. So a lot of PC-users end up being shafted because they aren't experts in the field of PC's.

I think I should give a lesson on:
Keeping Computers Clean and Safe....

I seem to manage it very well.

Yeah, last time my PC had a serious virus (disabled my internet connection), I was able to destroy it myself. No viruses on my PC to date.

i think that translates to "i is the betters. you is a noob" (many years of idiots babling in this language on games has helped)

Uber is German for Super

unlovedwarrior · « **Reply #16 on:** September 05, 2006, 10:30:21 AM »

ok and where did this come from Germany but why was it created?

Dilbert · « **Reply #17 on:** September 05, 2006, 11:08:56 AM »

I highly suspect drugs were involved.

Seriously, I'm not sure if it's just me, but I have noticed a high concentration of "|_|B3R 1337"s in a cluster of Star Wars multiplayer games.

(For the record, I am a fan of SW but not a fanboy -- big difference.)

SilentAssasin64 · « **Reply #18 on:** September 05, 2006, 03:21:54 PM »

To tell ya the truth that was the first time I have ever talked like that. However, in my experience 'language' like that is most often used in gaming communities. I myself do game...I just don't talk like that.

Well...uh...anyway...
