A variant of abbreviated hacker language, where most letters are replaced with non-alphabetical characters. Typically only used by those with extreme social disorders, obsessive gamers, and those who want to conceal their conversations from luddite passersby. Sentences in leet may or may not include punctuation, and some words are purposely scrambled to avoid censure by automated language editors (e.g. pr0n)

Translation: The article is all in leet, so I don't get it.

An alternitive way of typing, using symbols to form letters. It's very annoying, and the inventor of this shit will be killed if not already dead. Mostly used in online Video Games.

If you can read that, your IQ is above 80, and I congradulate you. that's an example of softcore leet, except the last part, which is hardcore, since it replaces every word with symbols. What "Suck it, bitches" failed to mention was that its use has indeed fallen out of the hands of those who are leet, and is now widely used by any Tom, Dick, or Harry. Please, don't use leet unless you are t3h pr0g (a programmer) or t3h h4x0r (a hacker). And even then, keep it in your comments in code, not on chat boards. It makes a mess of things....

Get the leet mug.
A dialect used either by people who think they are cool, or hackers (and people pretending to be hackers.) Involves replacing letters with numbers and/or symbols that look like them (and sometimes don't), and often mispelling, changing and abbreviating words. (SoMeTiMeS wRiTtEn LiKe ThIs) Is usually barely readable, and sometimes incoherent.
