	Interesting theory, but incorrect. U, R, BRB, TTYL, G2G, etc. originated in chatrooms as a time saver, and I myself can live with them. The all out "l33t" was created in an IRC channel, I believe it was, to avoid the "cops" who where moderators. It was quite useful, and wouldn't have been bad if only a few elite people knew it, and used it to dodge athorities, but them someone, I'm guessing an 11 yearold, thought it was cool to use in regular conversation. He brought it to counterstrike, where it quickly expanded. The term "n00b" was created by the "l33tists" to insult "idiots" who they deemed where just people who couldn't decode "l33t". Well, the elite-ist players of counterstrike (Those whom could head shot you with ever bullet, and who everyone knew and feared) got angered with this bunch of spam called "l33t" and decoded the "l33tist" word for idiot, "n00b". The elite-ists decided to insult the "l33tists" in their own language, and the litterate began calling the illiterates "n00bs". That is every documented record of "n00bish". There may have been a leek to a game besides Counter Stike before the "l33t" outbreak, but if there was, it was never used as spam before the Counter Strike "l33t" spammers. The word "l33t" was created by the counterstikers and was derived from Elite because the "l33tists" thought they where the coolest because they could understand their own spam.

	Didn't say it was the truth. I'm too lazy to figure that jazz out. It was just amusing to write. reads I like my version better. 8D
