I didn't know where to put this, as there was no available topic for me to correctly catagorize this in. But I just thought all of you have a right to know... maybe some of you have found this already, but to those that haven't, I warn you.

Is it safe? I mean, would parents watching me over my shoulder be a bad thing if I followed the link? O_o

XD At least some of them are literate. ^^

But I doubt most of them have the brains to follow orders, therefore nullifying their advantage of sheer numbers. Plus they'll probably end up commiting mutiny and attempting to strangle their leader (because s/he is literate).

But God help us if they invade....wherever they haven't already invaded.

EDIT: Actually...just read their 'new recruits' forum. They're really not that bad. Most of them are literate, or semi-literate, and I've already gotten used to the 'O RLY, YA RLY, NO WAI!' thing...

<[LITERATES ROCK; whether you like it or not heart ]>

Yeah, they're not that bad. At least their english is legible... unlike some others'. But you have to admit, the name of the guild sure is intimidating...

See, my newbie guild works to train them in the ways of gaia, and how to be literate, functional people here.

now, there's a useful thing to have.

and Casey12347, yes, it's perfectly safe if your parents are watching over your shoulder-no nudity, profanity, gore, or anything else protective parents would disapprove of.

It's not that bad. A few spelling mistakes, to be sure. But I've seen much worse.

I actually think it's a joke. Honestly, the way people are posting, I don't think the people there are actually illiterate.

I belive my guild (Gaian Marine Corps) may have to stop the nooblets....



exclaim NEW WEAPON DISCOVERED exclaim
Literacy gun


This weapon is very effective on leetspeakers, etc.. It works by launching visible letters that form old English, such as "Yonder" and stuff like that. this erases ALL English butchering from the victim, and then they become literate.

Dear Lord, I knew it was only a matter of time before they began to mass! Nooblets cluster together like colonial diatoms. gonk

Heh, yeah. As already stated, I think that that guild is more of a joke than anything.

I agree that it's just a joke.
If not, then at least they're some-what litterate.
I doubt that they'll invade...

Though I'm not saying that the entire of Gaia isn't already infested... XD

<[Word of the Day: pablum: Something (as writing or speech) that is trite, insipid, or simplistic. (Word of the Day by www.dictionary.com heart ]>

Now that I look back, I realise that perhaps I overreacted (sp?). But still, you have to say it's surprising, don't you? But one thing I am happy about the Nooblet Army guild is that they don't flame literates... and in turn, we don't flame noobs either. Which is good... right? sweatdrop

*Wince* But one of them was using the word "broughten". I'm not a grammer genius, so I could be wrong, it is supposed to be brought isn't it?
