I remember when the sprites that FF and I made for our SWM were considered acceptable, and weren't even commented on.
And when stuff like this was considered cool.
And I also remember when grif didn't know how to mod, or zalo, or capn, or anyone really.
I think I've been here too long...
What can I say? I can't sprite for anything.
Also, I'm technically the 2nd oldest person in the thread thus far (behind Alenth), but then, nobody knows me, so that's fine.
I was always way more into the coding stuff anyway. Those impact explosions made history. Which was then promptly forgotten when Data released the next build a day later.
Anyway, I remember this mod. Makes me want the Messiah Cannon to be made reality once more.
Yes, I make a lot of line breaks when my thoughts are disjointed. Now get me some moldy cheese.
EDIT: also...

Leet (written 31337, 1337, L337, 1337r0z, 13370rz, and l33t), or Leetspeak, is a written argot used primarily on the Internet, which uses various combinations of ASCII characters to replace Latinate letters. The term is derived from the word "elite", and the usage it describes is a specialized form of symbolic writing. Different dialects of leet are found on different online forums.
Initially, the word leet was used as an adjective, to primarily describe the behavior or accomplishments of others in the community. In that usage, Leet generally carries the same meaning when referring to either the game prowess or, in original usage, hacking expertise of another person. From adjective form its use then expanded to include use as an expletive in reaction to a demonstration of the former qualities. With the mass proliferation of Internet use in the 1990s into the 21st century, Leet has since become a part of Internet culture and slang.[1] Leet may also be considered a substitution cipher, albeit with much variation from user to user.
So the word is not German. You're probably confusing it with über, which is indeed German and is just the preposition meaning (usually) "above" and usually has little to do with the English version when used in normal speech.
