Stealer! You stole from my post! (The last on the 1st page)

What? I know what memes are too! I really didn't look at posts besides the first checking if it wasn't there. Sorry if you thought I stole. I guess we just thought of the same thing.

I hate it when people talk like this.

In the past few years, with the evolution of texting, abbreviating has become more and more popular. When I first joined scratch, I was completely confused by all the abbreviations. So, I decided to construct this guide to chat-speak.

Abbrevations:

LOL - Laugh Out Loud

ROTFL - Rolling On The Floor Laughing

BTW - By The Way

BRB - Be Right Back

IDK - I Don't Know

IDC - I Don't Care

RTFM - Read The Flipping Manual - When somebody doesn't understand something OBVIOUS. I've actually never heard this one before.

QFT - Quoted For Truth - For use after quoting a post, saying that you agree. Quoted For Truth. Generaly used on internet forumafter quoting someone to make sure they cannot go back and change what they've already posted. Sometimes used to express you agree with the opinion. Taken from UD

OMG - Oh My Gosh - Exclamation for something shocking.

FTW - For The Win - Promoting something you are for, or that is great example: Scratch Forums FTW!

FTL - For The Lose - Demoting something you are against, the opposite of FTW.

LI - Laughing Inside - For all those moments that you don't actually laugh OUT LOUD, but you still think its funny.  Never heard

LMABO - Laughing My Awesome Butt Off

TL;DR - Too Long; Didn't Read - Used when someone doesn't want to read a 'word wall'. (See word wall.)  This is often used by lazy people

* - What The Heck - Expressing disbelief.

ROFL - Rolling On the Floor Laughing - A more commonly used form of ROTFL.

ROFLAMO - Rolling On the Floor Laughing Out Loud
This aconym doesn't quite work
LAL - Laughing A Little - Stronger laughter than LI, but weaker than LOL (See Lol and LI.)  Never heard

WE - WhatEver - "I don't care."

IMHO - In My  Honest Opinion

G2G - See GTG.

Terms:

Word Wall - A long 'wall' of words, a large paragraph.

Siggy - Signature.

Pwn - To beat, destroy, 'own'.

Noob - Immature, or new user.  Wrong. I will explain it

Nooblet - See Noob.

Noobster - See Noob.

Newb - See Noob.

N00b - See Noob.
You see, these are 2 different words. N00b, or any variation with 1337 speak is often an insult, aimed at people who do stuff "for the lulz" Meanwhile, newb and noob are used to describe beginners

Epic - Really awesome, very cool.

Win - Something done very well, high achievement earned.

Fail - Something done poor, or a mistake. Opposite of win.

Über - A German word, widely used on the internet. Something more epic than epic.

Hax! - Something unexplainable, or very 'Über'. Used commonly as "OMG HAX!"  Not common enough, it seems

Hacks! - Correct spelling of 'Hax!'. (See Hax!)  Hacks are just hacks. Hax is a word in it's own.

H4x! - See Hax!

Please reply with with more. I will update often.

My changes are in blue

It's actually really annoying when people correct you. It's rude.
