Default M$ published 1337 speak dictionary and creates classes.

Microsoft has published a chat room guide for parents, mainly dealing with the acronyms that parents seeing (OMFG, LOL, STFU). This is a much needed guide to make sure that parents are in control of their child's lives and to make sure they arent involved with potential sexual predators.

See it Here

I have been in my share of chat rooms...I haven't seen half of these acronyms. Weird.

Full story here

"pwn": A typo-deliberate version of own, a slang term that means to dominate. This could also be spelled "0\/\/n3d" or "pwn3d," among other variations. Online video game bullies or "griefers" often use this term.

video game bullies, eh?
