I think everyone on every forum, everywhere, needs to see this.

Posting and You!

Not only is it amusing, it's also quite informative.

Finally someone made that animation....
Thank GOD!

Should be posted in the guide section as well as here

I really wanted to make a new thread to post this, but I refrained myself, so here goes.:

Ahem.

OMFG STEAM R0X0RZ TEH BIG ONE111!

you are so lucky that you didn't start a new thread for that, or we'd all be laughing at you, little billy!

ya dumbass


I am such a spam whore...

hahahahahaha

They really should put this in the "introductions and where to find a guide" section...it helps and is funny

OMFG STEAM R0X0RZ TEH BIG ONE111!

Yeah I agree.

This is the best. thread. ever.

I'm pinning this.

*abuse of mod powers ensues*

If it didn't have swearing in the first fifteen seconds then I'd probably suggest that as a standard 'watch this please' thing. As it is, it's still spot on though.

That was awesome. There are some people who should really watch that animation.

'Tis bleeped out though, surely that's no different from an asterixed-out curse word, a practice permitted on these forums?

Ooo! Battle of the mods!

*pops some popcorn*

(Is a spam whore)

(By the way, Commie, I think Mata's right on this one... they still have minor swearing throughout... i.e. "ya dumbass" which could be a bit of a system shock to some kids.)

Good animation... now for that popcorn.

I could've sworn they say f**k really soon into it.

yeah i hafta agree...

as far as i remember it doesn't bleep it on the

"OMFG STEAM R0X0RZ TEH BIG ONE111!" bit

I agree. How can anyone really be offended by the beep itself? What it implies, maybe, but someone could get offended at any number of substitutes for "f**k"... it does say dumbass, though. *shock, horror*

They do. And it's bleeped out.



Yes it does, watch it again.

"Dumbass" is allowed on the boards, so what's the problem?

This I think highlights a bit of trans-Atlantic difference - the idea of "dumbass" being considered swearing - even "minor swearing" - is a very strange one.

Heh heh heh, commie said ass.


Must admit tho, they went pretty soft on the beep, I mean, if we look at the text equivilant, it would amount to one asterix at most = f*ck

Which could be fick, fock, fack, feck, fyck, or a number of all-consonant words that don't exist.

A bleep can make things much ruder as a certain radio show proves

The point is that the bleep only means nothing if you know the word. If you dont know it, you learn nothing, and if you do, the bleep makes no difference.

Looks cool.

I guess my head must've just automatically filled in the 'beep' with the word they were replacing. My mistake!

Do I sound like a complete dumbass if I say, ummm, well, what does
"OMFG STEAM R0X0RZ TEH BIG ONE111!" actually mean??

It means "Oh my f--king God, Steam rocks the big one!"

What is that god-awful stain in the upper left corner of the screen at the beginning and end of the video o_o;;;;;

What do you think it is?

Ha ha ha ha, that was HILLARIOUS! And yet very informative, A+++
