    So in almost every topic i've seen recently...the word I has been replaced with "me" like "me like cookies" or "me'm gonna get a drink"


    WHAT THE HELL?

    Is this some weird kinda prank against n00bs? Or is it some gay ass bug lurking around the froums?

    Apparently Dark Elf has been allowed changed certain letters to "me" and "me'm". Its not a bug and it probably won't stay this way for long.....Me hopes

    For those who haven't figured it out, every instance of I, I've, I'm etc has been changed to me. Although, it didn't quite work out like I'd hoped (I was lazy and only changed -I and -I'*, dashes included to make it readable), but still, you can get me to make these changes in the future by impressing me with tales of your deeds in Ironman mode in ToEE going completely solo.

    AARRGGHH! I'm messed up! I can't read!
    Way to ANNOY people, Dark Elf, Jarinor. Congratulations. 3:)
    How long is this going to last? Not long, please...

    Yes, I'm very proud of how this turned out. I guess it's true what Icairus said - I'm sadistic and evil.

    It won't be this wonderful forever though - the word replacement merely lasts for 24 hours. But I'm going to enjoy every last bit of it, the sadistic freak I am. ;)

    Just chat around using everything to refer what you like. Just talk in third person or something, state your oppinion without involving you. :p

    It's not that hard, it can easily be done. :)


    EDIT: Now...if "it" and "the word refering to yourself" were both changed...then things would be quite screwed up :p

    In certain cases, you can do without the word. If not, use third person or write it _I. Like: _I think...

    Are you going to every put it back? The 24 hours has come and gone and the "me" business has gotten really OLD! Please get rid of it. It must make us look like pathetic, illiterate imbeciles to guests who come in not knowing what is going on.
