okay hehe, tyvm, lol, etc all existed long before most people where on UO... I've caught myself saying LOL and hehe a long time ago (back in 1997) from my old BBS days... bbs chat rooms started that I think years ago, but it carried on into Online games since MOST of them you have to chat using your fingers. I am dating someone right now who has said hehe and lol a couple of times and then laughed at herself for doing it. When I had a shard I had issues with using the . or the [ch in IRC or in IM before too... but it's been a while.
