You are really missing the point, don't you actually know the significance of '1337'?!!

1= L
3= E
3= E
7= T

1=L | 2 = Z | 3 = E | 4 = A | 5 = S | 6 = dunno never used it | 7 = T | 8 = B | 9 = again dunno! | 0 = O

good old wikipedia said:
Leet (most commonly 1337 but often also leetspeak, l33t5p34k, 133t, or l33t) from the phonetic form of the word "elite", is a cipher, or novel form of English spelling. It is characterized by the use of non-alphabetic characters to stand for letters bearing a superficial resemblance, and by a number of spelling changes such as the substitution of "z" for final "s" and "x" for "(c)k" or "(c)ks." Leetspeak was first traditionally used on bulletin board systems and then later adopted by America Online users and other Internet communities.

However, leetspeak is not popular amongst all hackers, and nowadays is most commonly used in an ironic manner to represent immaturity. Many consider it a pointless affectation, and as it has become widely used it is less useful as a way of showing membership of an "elite" group. It is nonetheless a cultural phenomenon well-known amongst hackers and many other Internet users.

Certain factions maintain that "true" leetspeak is spelled correctly, with the exceptions described above. They do not consider the use of extreme short forms (such as "b" for "be", or "u" for "you") as leetspeak; instead, they refer to it by such terms as "AOL speak". This is because they associate such habits with users who use ISPs like AOL, which is associated with "newbiness" and therefore not considered "elite". Another convention sometimes associated with leetspeak or Internet chatting is capitalizing every other letter (LiKe ThIs), sometimes called studlycaps or stickycaps. A similar habit involves capitalizing every consonant (LiKe THiS).
Which makes this thread oddly appropriate for the forums ;)

too geeky for your understanding...yet you've been a member for 2 years of a videogame emulation website, and you bothered to enter this thread in the first place...

come on man, it's ok to admit you had no idea about the picture in the first place, or to admit you've never heard about 1337. to try and rationalize it by cutting us down to make yourself feel better, that's a sissy move man. "well, you guys are uh...too geeky...im sure glad i dont know what 1337 is! now i can make love to a bag of popcorn". whatever you say dude. if you need to cut us down so you can be on the same level as us, that's cool with me. however you want to do it.

hey man, like i said, im cool with you not having the same interests. it doesn't bother me at all. but the fact of the matter is, you came into this thread and thus far have been the only negative voice out of this entire thread. didnt your mother ever tell you, "if you dont have something nice to say, don't say anything at all" ? seriously, that applies right now.

i dont like 99% of the topics in off-topic discussion. but, i challenge you to find a few that i've actually posted in. why dont i post in there? because im not interested. i dont go in to rain on their parade, i let it go on. and if you're not interested in this "1337" thread, then kindly leave please ;) your negative and deconstructive attitude is not appreciated.
