Effective communication on the Trem forums

I thought I'd throw this out there to help the few of us who can actually write a coherent sentence communicate with the majority of posters on the Trem forums:

It's astonishingly accurate!  For example, can you pick out the translation from the actual forum post in the following examples?

How I would write it:  Oh no!  Someone beside me found out the SST admins are high!  It's the end of the world as we know it!
Option 1:  O NO!1!1!! OMG SOM3ONE BSIED M3 FOUND OUT TEH ST ADMINS R HIGH!1!!1!!! OMG ITS TEH END OF DA WORLD AS W3 KNOW IT!!1!1! WTF
Option 2:  ONOH!!!!!!!!!SOMEONE BESIDES ME FOUND OUT THE SST ADMINS ARE HIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How I would write it:  Please men, no, I am a good player.
Option 1:  pliz menz no i are good player
Option 2:  PLZ M3N NO IM A GOD PLAEYR!!111!1 OMG

I got a kick out of this.  Merry Christmas, Tremulous.

I would just like to point out that there is a difference between AOL-speak and 1337.
