Hey folks, I've decided to help out the common forum newbie, by creating this little guide to interpreting the indiginous forum dwellers. Hope you find this helpfull =)
I'm so tired of all these whining people
Translation:
"Why aren't you all paying attention to ME? :'("
QQ moar!
Translation:
"I've been hurt too many times to still believe that my criticisms are heard, and am acting out to protect myself from experiencing that pain again..."
/sips coffee
Translation:
"Lulz I likez meme"
Troll...
Translation:
"I suffer from paranoid delusions that prohibit me from taking other people seriously, because I fear some people I don't know over the internet might think I'm silly."
Cool story bro
Translation:
"I doubt the credibility of your post"
or; "I understand what you're saying, but why would you feel the need to post this here?"
Oh god not another one of these...
Translation:
"I really don't have a life, and thus attempt to substitute with my forum persona. I therefore compulsively read every thread, including the ones I know I will dislike, and am blaming you for the negative feelings this produces."
/Facepalm
Translation:
"I need a hug..."
Noob...
Translation:
"Due to my own shortcomings as a gamer, I have decided that rather than striving to push myself up on the ladder of social gamer standing, it is much more comfortable to push others down."
Here are the quotes I've added from the posts in this thread, there may be some editing, but the general thought should remain intact ^^
I hate Blizzard for taking so long to release the damn game!!!

Translation:
I followed Diablo 3's development too closely, and am now blaming Blizzard for my failure to realise it's just a game.
These translations aren't entirely accurate
-- Umpa
Translation:
"I feel threatened by these entirely accurate translations :'("
Fanboy
Translation:
"You don't go along in my cries of impending doom, and I'm far too drunk to argue with you, therefore I'll attempt to negate anything you say in an ad hominem attack."
I'm American
Translation:
"Please don't take anything I say seriously. I still use my feet as a standard of measurement."
If you know any common forum posts you would like to post a translation of, or would like me to translate, please post them below
"I want to say something but I'll keep it to myself I guess and leave this useless post behind to make you aware that there WAS something... "

"We're like the downtown of the Diablo related internet lol"

I've always interpreted this one as....
"My real life never amounted to anything and I feel inferior to other people. But since I am lifeless, I get lots of time to master video games (or troll forums). So this is my domain, my chance to be on top, my time to belittle the kind of people who look down on me in real life. Because here in this dimension I have... ULTIMATE POWER!!!!!!"
Edit-Between typos and weird editing issues, that took a lot longer than I expected. I need coffee and an orange now. LOL!

Many users on this forum frustrate me. So I came up with this thread to express my feelings. Hopefully people won't interprete this as a cop-out in that I'm avoiding confrontation but still making fun of the people who annoy me.
Please God, don't let Nekrodrac post in this thread.
