The leetspeak ruins this, because it makes it too blatantly sarcastic. You should just have intentionally poor spelling, as well as lots of question and exclamation marks.

I concur. This speak in a substition-letter format is quite irritating, and in such, it removes from this discussion the sarcasm that was lightly sprinkled on.

What... you mean sounding like a socially maladjusted 10 year old with nerd rage by using leetspeak is bad? Awwww...

Aside from the fact that it was never ever as cool as people would like to think back in the 80s when it really started; the 'neo-leetspeakers' who now use it just come across as pathetic.

P.S. The whole typing lIkE ThIs aNd SuCh is even more lame.

Well it was never intended to be cool, they used it for a reason.

Actually, it appears that the X's go lowercase on the outside, upper case on the inside.
The rest is just every second letter is capitalized, starting with the first of the name and ending with the last of the name.

Not random.

You just insulted yourself. This is the JOKE thread. Also, read the main announcement on the forum.
