Childish, sure. Long thread that has now been linked on many different websites. The story of a guy who got caught with his pants down (literally), and tried to threaten everyone that didn’t believe him that he got scammed. Guy was cybering with someone in an online game, and thought he was in the privacy of his (ingame) home. He wasn’t.

PROBABLY NOT WORKSAFE!

Link

Graphic language, but the ensuing chaos was worth well more than a few chuckles.

It gets better; I can’t normally tolerate the pwn3d crowd, but that thread is hilarious! - read on - the first page is all blustering denial and accusation, and how much it upset his real-life girlfriend, then she shows up to say that she didn’t know she was his girlfriend…

I know nothing about this role-playing game or this community, but I am reading that thread and dying laughing. It’s a classic online meltdown.

  1. The link says the page has exceeded its bandwith.

  2. What does pwn3d mean?

Yeah, I see. Oh well.

It is “l33tspeak” for owned. As in “Did you see that rocket launcher shot I just killed that guy with? I pwn3d his ass!”

Google’s only cached the forum frontpage, and Coral cache never picked up the site. Has anyone mirrored it?

Evidentally, it’s 1337 for “owned”, as in “Dude, you got owned.” I read the thread last night and it took me two pages to figure out what the heck was going on. But it was a fascinating insight into the gaming world (which I’m not familiar with at all)…

Ah, the story, quoted from a Fark thread:

…and the downfall of modern civilization continued unabated.

Well, I made it through 8 pages, then I couldn’t tak3 1t 4n¥m0r3!!!

The Star Wars Kid[sup]TM[/sup] must be breathing a sigh of relief.

I couldn’t even get halfway down the page. All those enormous sigs and picture attachments. What’s going on? :confused:

Mirror with all the pictures and posts by the guilty one:

Should suffice until the real thread comes back. Link was posted around page 17 before the quota was exceeded.

Young teenagers are running wild all over the internet.

It makes me feel oddly proud to say that I don’t have one iota of a clue as to what that is all about.

It may as well be written in Swahili.

Even after I read the explanation I don’t get it.

I’m up to page 3 of that thread, and am LMAO. It is now my mission to read the entire thread.

I think this is where his on-line babe broke up with him:

But she could just be randomly hitting keys on her keyboard.

I can’t breathe…I can’t breathe…
Damn it Skip!

I just love the guy who said that he really wants to be sued so that he can get this clown’s actual real name. Can I marry that guy?

No?

Well then I will have to settle for peeing my pants laughing.

omfglololol

this is truly great. I’m glad you guys turned me onto this “cecilness” so quickly so I can keep abreast of what goes on with the rest of the geeks in cyberworld.

Very funny stuff!!!

All the names in the world and this mook had to pick Cecil? Oh, the humanity.

On the other hand, what if he’s one of us? :smiley:

I think that one comment just might be funnier than the whole EQ drama thread.
