Nothing new. "Leet" has been around for more than 20 years.
"Leet originated within bulletin board systems in the 1980s, where having "elite" status on a BBS allowed a user access to file folders, games, and special chat rooms, often including archives of pirated software, pornography, or text files documenting topics such as how to construct explosives and manufacture illegal drugs. It was primarily developed to defeat text filters created by BBS or Internet Relay Chat system operators for message boards to discourage the discussion of forbidden topics, like cracking and hacking. Once reserved to use by hackers, crackers, and script kiddies, Leet has since entered the mainstream. It is now also used to mock newbies, or newcomers, on web sites, or in gaming communities."
"Leet" : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet
"B1FF: /bif/, BIFF, n. :
"The most famous pseudo, and the prototypical newbie. Articles from B1FF feature all uppercase letters sprinkled liberally with bangs, typos, ‘cute’ misspellings (EVRY BUDY LUVS GOOD OLD BIFF CUZ K��L DOOD AN HE RITES REEL AWESUM THINGZ IN CAPITULL LETTRS LIKE THIS!!!), use (and often misuse) of fragments of talk mode abbreviations, a long sig block (sometimes even a doubled sig), and unbounded naivete. B1FF posts articles using his elder brother's VIC-20. B1FF's location is a mystery, as his articles appear to come from a variety of sites. However, BITNET seems to be the most frequent origin. The theory that B1FF is a denizen of BITNET is supported by B1FF's (unfortunately invalid) electronic mail address: B1FF@BIT.NET."

Oh god, another kid who has just "discovered" the hilarity that is 1337 speak.
I'm fine, by the way.
And you really shouldn't curse. 5I-I1T isn't very nice, you know. And to say only n00bs can't read implies you think of yourself as on a higher level than what they are on. In which case, you are sadly mistake. As Internet protocol indicates, the only users of 1337 speak are now, in fact, n00bs and people trying to be witty.
