Re: Which came first.............

well, technically, Battlefield 1942 came first. It was based on a war that happened 60+ years ago.

'lol' by a long shot, was used widely even when I played C&C95 over the WON network.

Re: Which came first.............

I think 'lol' came out a few months after the acronym 'scuba' was invented...

Re: Which came first.............

lol by quite a few years. It was already commonplace when I played StarCraft all day every day.

Re: Which came first.............

"lol" came into existence when 12-year-old-IMing-AOLers came into existence. Probably in the year 666 A.D.; given their inhuman annoyance quotient. It was most likely followed by "lmao" when the inventor of "lol" explained to his Instant Messenger buddy what it meant. This, in turn, was followed by (respectively):
1. OMG
2. OMFG
3. ROFL
4. ROFLMAO
5. ROFLMAOLOL
6. WTH
7. WTF
8. WTFH
9. GTH
10. Screw you, ya' fish-poo!

And there you have the entire history of IM/gaming nominclature!
