Once upon a time, in a far-off land known as USENET, there was a man who
signed his posts B1ff.

B1ff was a c001 d00d who liked to substitute numbers for letters and words,
and such like. Reading a B1ff post was a lot like crossing a Prince song
title with a ransom note made up from pictures of vanity plates.

Unfortunately, the hacker wannabes (think: alt.2600) picked up on
B1ffspeak, and now all the scrip kiddies ta1k 2 3ach0th3r l1k3 th155, wh1ch
can g3t v3rr3 ann0y1ing.

Much the same way that SPEAKING IN ALL CAPS MEANS THAT YOU ARE YELLING YOUR
FOOL HEAD OFF, sp3ak1ng 1n B1ffsp3ak m3ans U R a skr1ptz k1dd133 wannab33

ROFLMAO!!

When we get posts like this on Beretta.net we just delete them.  Sometimes it 
is nice to have moderators.  ;^)  Our signal to NOISE ratio is way up and 
membership is too.  Less fat, more meat.  Of course moderation also has it's 
down sides.
