    See my first post. I think I gave reasons. Preservation of language being the most important

    Leet is English
    That is at best highly debatable. On second thought, is not at all debatable. Leet is rubbish, nothing else.

        What makes you think the English language is some sacred entity that needs protecting from change? We're not the French, you know ....

          Anyone who uses 1337 5Þ33|( is probably going to be ignored within 5 minutes anyways. A ban is unnecessary as they will eventually get the message and leave or quit.

              I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                  OK, so I'm behind the times. What is "leet" speak?

                    My grand scheme to herd all the Leetiots into one forum then nuke them out of existence has been foiled by Ming again...........

                    This is an important issue, I think we should petition Congress to make leet use punishible by death in the US.

                      I agree with Asmodean.
                      We should ban leet.
                      It be disgrace to English.
                      Me think that we should ban AYB also.

                        The only times I've seen leet used on these forums is either a) when it comes up in the conversation and people start joking about it or b) Comrade Tassadar starts using as a joke and everyone starts joking about it. It isn't really a problem.

                              Also, people who use leet for mocking purposes are also idiots. Imitation is flattery. Just don't. Any further encouragement will just legitimise it.
