leet is slang used by elite hackers (hence the name "leet," a contracted form of "elite") online like in forums and online gaming. it uses alphanumerics instead of letters. here is a basic leet alphabet: A B C D E F G H I J K L M there are many different versions of each letter. you can learn how to "speak" leet at http://the.mysterious.alex.googlepages.com/, or there is a leetspeak generator where you type something and it translates it into leet. one last note: if you know blitz basic, then will you please look at the need help with blitz basic thread in the help wanted section of the forums? thx ------------------ [This message has been edited by leet hacker (edited July 31, 2007).] [This message has been edited by leet hacker (edited July 31, 2007).] [This message has been edited by leet hacker (edited August 01, 2007).] |

Welcome to CCN leet hacker! This thread gives me deja vu... The only other human language I would be willing to take the time to learn is Arabic.

Welcome to CCN! Be concerned though that many of the skilled hackers who practice hacking as opposed to cracking don't use l33t much. Especially those that treat hacking as a life style. I'll check into your other thread though! ------------------ |

ah, so you don't mean hacker as in someone who manipulates a site's security into giving a satisfactory effect. ------------------ |

Hey leet hacker. Welcome to CCN. If you don't mind me asking, how old are you? Please don't take offense to the question, I'm just curious. | |

HanClinto: Not neccesarily. Crackers are those who use their knowledge to cause destruction, and trouble. Hackers may also use the same methods Crackers use but with the intent on assisting. Ex. Cracker. Ex. Hacker. At least that's what I know. Hacker's break in for good, Crackers for bad, they both use alot of the same techniques, but do totally different stuff.

I didn't use viruses, or break in for the purpose of not talking about a cracker. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Mene-Mene (edited July 31, 2007).] |
