Whats the origin of the online expresion salute?
 

and dont you think its a sahme its been lost?

i remember hearing it first in eaw

look what you find if you Google it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salute

also, you can find this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

MORITuri salute but i was wondering the online origin and why is not used anymore :(

edit:

im clearly ontopic here

the online now is about kill kill kill

a fight one to one is beatifull and deserves a saulte

10 guys slaughtering one is ugly and deserves no salute

killing an unaware pray deserves no salute

no do wonder why there are no more salutes online

the old times was a chivalry aerial wwi now its at everything is valid cause we simulate war wwii

edit:

out of curiosity i read what a troll is:

a person who searches an emotional response:

actaully i admitt i do that

have you noticed i only post beautifull things?

thats cause i want people to have nice emotions

i do with this post intending a emotion of knighthood

but then theres nothing wrong with being a trol who produces good emotions in other

it would be a matter of good emotions like love and knighthood vs bad emotions like hate and playing low :)

edit:

now you trolled me cause i wonder if im a troll after reading your link

but you dont know me, im really like this, very concerned with chavalry and odd stuff

if you ask in the ubizoo 99% of people will tell you im not a troll, and i spent 10 years there and wrote very odd stuff and provoking emotions :)

in fact now i have the paranoia if the person who wrote that in the wikipedia had me in mind, thanks a lot for the troll :)

Funny how usually it's the guys trying to make fun of raaaid that end up looking like fools.

He's asking about the internet game version in case you still don't get it.

S!

ha

im doing my best to bring chivalry back

i was wondering if i would get banned for this and i didnt mind, the peace of mind

guys lets start making nice dogfights and give a warm salute after a fight between gentelman

if somone shoots you unware say nosalute

if you are on a ten minutes dogfight and someone shoots you or shoots your foe give hin a nosalute

lets not let the other cod players take over the game

as you can see im trying to get an emotianl response

the emotion of being a fair player not a low player

I always ~S~ after a good fight, as do all my squad mates. It is a polite thing to do. If you defended your ass off and get shot down then you see that guy acknowledges that you defended your ass off, it feels pretty good.

So ~S~ everyone :cool:

ah, that's clear now, thank you buddy.. :rolleyes:

For me this originated back in the days of early 3d flightsims simply because you and your friends were in a clan or similar and you didnt say hello, you said ~S~ or S! or some derivative. a civillian light hearted nod at how they communicate in the military. When i shot someone down i always said " lol ". It's not cool to salute the enemy when you can wind them up instead !.

I always used S! when i shot someone down in European Airwar
