... Way way back when I had just started getting into forums and internet stuff, I didn't know much.

And on one forum, I noticed a category titled "Spamming" and I don't know if I noticed the description under it, otherwise I wouldnt have been so stupid...

So I posted a thread in it about the food Spam. -_-

Haha. Yeah I know. =P

I'm pretty sure I'm alone on this one too. :|

You crazy young techno hipsters. Way back in the day, when I was that age, I had a whole 'nother year of waiting for that kind of fancy technology to enter my household. Heck, we only had one of them newfangled televisions and a used intellivision console to make with the fun-having and we appreciated it! Why, I reckon you kids just don't know how good you have it these days.

In my early days, I was a regular member of an online RP chat room. I was there pretty much every night for the better part of a year. It's where I learned spelling on the internet was serious ****ing business. I'm sad it's dead now, some of those people were cool as ****.

Roleplaying was cool.

EDIT: I don't mean that in a "lol you suck" way, but I used to go to RP chat rooms as well.

Hah, honestly, it really was. It was a pretty elitist community, and somehow, there was almost never really stupid newcomers. If it were still running, I'd probably go back every now and then.

Ahhhh, nostalgia.

True.. I honestly don't know why I got so addicted to it, but it was fun.. and ever since then I've always typed properly.. >__> I never did the chatspeak thing.. unless I'm extremely tired or in a rush. There were like two rooms I went to.. The Forest and The Red Dragon Inn.

:]

EDIT: As a matter of fact.. my user name is derived from my very first RP character. x]

I remember that. I was freaking obsessed with that game. FFR has replaced that obsession.

Rofl. Oh yeah. Well I wasn't like that before. I always thought they would find out if you lied.
I would do that now, but FFR has taken me over. o.0

Hi.

Actually DivynE, people spell things differently in other areas in the world. Places such as the U.K. or Canada. So typing things like sence, favour, whilst, defence, realise, etc. etc. is grammatically correct for them. In fact, what they say and how they say it is part of the original language, the U.S. changed that though as time passed on. At least you were right when he spelled "community" wrong.

I think I got started on the Internet when I was like 10...

We had an old Compaq with AOL, and for some reason I took a strong interest in the computer.

Later I used to troll the AOL chat rooms thinking I was awesome...

I played Runescape too... took me about a year-and-a-half to realize that it was a waste of time, lol.

Hi.

Pwned a little bit, but irishknight is right.

Oh and this thread is practically nothing, because it's spam. Spam is just nonsense..then again this is chitchat.

When I was a noob to the internet, I spammed the kids' chat rooms on AOL with a/s/l, and press 33333 if you like Pokemon. That was the extent of my conversations when I was 11.

I, too, blame online RP chat rooms for my proper spelling and grammar to this day (especially the fact that I can type with any kind of speed while maintaining said functions), though I don't often have cause to discuss it.

RuneScape was where I grew up too...
I still have my member account on that game.... $5/month wasted lol

And I remember one rainy day in circa 2000 when I found my first GameBoy Emulator. I played Pokemon Red Version on the computer for like 8 hours straight, and I swear, it was orgasmic.
