==;( x (large number)==
The article mentions ;( x as being internet slang - I personally have never seen this and it points to a specific site where its common on. As this site is tottally obscure, I reckon this doesn't belong on this page, unless someone can vouch for its common usage. [[User:EAi|EAi]] 17:38, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

==General Announcement==
For the record, I, Huyen Nguyen, screenname prouddemocrat, am responsible for adding the term SIWA, for having coined it.  Thank you.


That's a point. What range of usage on the internet makes these acronyms acceptable? One suggested by the user 'thewinekone' on the website 'YouTube', was 'TOL' meaning 'Thinking Of Laughing', as an alternative to 'LOL'. Thousands of people are now using this acronym across the internet, though it was removed when I added it. Please could the rules defining the acceptability of this internet slang be defined.

==Suggestion for seperation==

Maybe we should make a seperate page for '''gaming slang'''. This page (list of internet slang) is getting quite long and it may be easier from the point of view of people new to gaming and wanting to check internet slang definitions for forums and such.

:It's a tough line to trace, to decide that kind of thing, and that's why this page would probably be better off deleted. [[User:ForbiddenWord|ForbiddenWord]] 02:42, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
