English speakers problems...sigh people like to abbreviate everything actually, i started to play MMO on Mexican servers, so, we also used abbreviations, pj (personaje, character), tp (teletransporte, teleport), gp (grupo, party) there's also a lot of swear words, but I'm NOT going to explain that, also, on that game, the word lol was used as a way to make fun of people, like, humiliate em, some people don't know English so they were just offended instead of knowing what that meant... so yeah, lazy people Totally true, but I meant English speakers only would start a thread to discuss the correct use of these terminology.I'm bored actually.

i know someone who use "XD" a lot. a lot meaning in all his sentences. and sometimes he would even be replying with just XD. it was annoying to a point. it was tolerable enough when i'm in a good mood.

Welcome to the internet post 1999 . Anyone remember how glorious browsing the internet was in the early to mid 90's was? Web pages actually took up a whole god damn page(None of this "Click for the next sentence, 45 times" bullcrap we get from facebook articles nowadays). It took extra work to code in a hyperlink and make a new page back then, so people crammed as much info as possible into one page. Ahhh sorry for the off topicness of this, just what you are saying about Iruna now is seriously the whole entire internet now, and it made miss the early days of the internet. I do not really have clear memory of how the internet was back then because I preferred playing outside and getting bruises but I remember frequenting Archie comics with my sister. Imagine the loading page of web pages at that time. Lmao. But back then it was all okay because there's really nothing to compare it to plus we had all the time in the world. But one annoying thing I remember is the disconnection every time someone picks up the phone lol and that noise you hear when it's connecting again. xD
Anywayyyyy, I'm guilty! Roflmao. xD

Off topic: ...I remember the good ol' days of dial up connection. This was when AOL was dominant. This was also around the time when Yahoo chat rooms consisted of mostly actual people and not bots. And I remember the days of having to wait hours upon hours, just to download several songs (and it also took some time to burn cds).
And remember the cd players? Earlier versions skipped if you bumped the player. Then eventually they came with shock absorbant cd players etc. Hell, my radio had a cassette tape holder (although cassette tapes were bit earlier than this subject). And the good ol' VHS. I still got a grip of them laying around somewhere.
I actually miss some of the t.v. shows during this era (90's).

If you want honesty here well let's see. I can't speak for everyone else who "over uses" those. But I use them a lot to hide how I feel inside, I can only imagine I'm not the only person who does that. I don't like showing things and so hide how I feel by doing things such as that.
