When people use text talk in the avatar arenas. It's just so annoying and kind of strange.

Ah yes, bad grammar and "txt tlk", how I hate it too. I bet there are probably a lot of us out there, wailing in misery somewhere in the deep, dark backwaters of the Internet. Hmm, maybe we should get together in some kind of organization, like a guild or something of that nature.

Yeah, a guild. That has definite possibilities.

If I find the ninja's "gundagger," will I be able to stab and shoot the person repeatedly until bored?

If so, i'm willing to look.

To Mammon: WHOA! Mammon, your brilliance is exceeded only by your insanity. With a great fear of bringing forth a screaming horde of females, I'm going to quote Captain Jack Sparrow when he said: "It's remarkable how often those two traits coincide."

To the original poster: Yeah, it's bad grammar, spelling, "txt-talk" and butchering of our beloved English language. It's bad, that's why we're here. Why is it worse when it's in the avatar arena as opposed to everywhere else you see it?

The avatar arena is retard central anyways, I learned more about outfit/item composition and themes from the avatar talk forums.

Yes, I used the word "retard" as a noun - deal with it.

Hmmm, still deciding whether this should be in the "horror stories".

You've given examples... nut not story or account of an event as such.



Anyway, shall I shoot Mammon now, or save it for the authorities?

Yes, there is text talk. Yes, people are incompetent with the language and need to be spanked; however my hand is currently raw. ninja  

play it loud

At least the one in the middle was somewhat legible. *sighs* I'll never enter my avatar in that stupid arena again.

*moving this thread to "txt tlk horror stories".*
