Although it is still going on, the alternative spellings I will not miss. I am so sick of people typing "teh" and that other crap.

Heh, there was one dude the other day who had that....I'm not sure if it was a joke or not, but it was a laptop that was like a 120MHz Pentium with 32MB of RAM, etc... A total sh*tbox.... Hopefully it was a joke - I'll try to find it.

So far, no luck. I don't think that signatures are part of a search when you search thread bodies.... I'll have to try to retrace my steps, but I've been in a lot of threads in the past few days.

This is more of an Internet fad, but I hate ROFL. Nobody, I repeat, NOBODY literally rolls on the floor laughing while surfing the web.

With quotes inside of quotes? Making it so long that you have to scroll 2 pages just to get to the one word response?
Like this?

Yeah, I sort of like the old way of quoting. Just the italics...

I think the new quotes are easier to read though, and to discern who the author was.

ATOT is almost a seperate entity to the rest of AT. Many people who post in ATOT have very little interest in the rest of the forums, which also kick ass, so they generally do things like stick to ATOT/HD etc, a limited selection of the many fascinating forum bits on offer.
