i know when thief first came out i did not hear it ,but maybe 2 years later it was common to hear,in my view its a way to say to the player you talking to ,when you get to this point from it,meaning right click it,as the idea of highlighted items in a game to manipulate in my view at that time was newer for the masses who who starting to dive into pc games
another example is a person tells another person well i went to that area and frobed the hell out of it and nothing happened,then the other person will say something like,well you have to frob the upper left underside while pressing against the right wall lol
also if the word is used by itself it means to frob with no item in use,other wise they would have to say what item to use with the frob
the word itself is i think finesse but rob is common sense finesse -rob,in simple terms a light touch
as no one say saying from back in the doom days

And on the heels of that, holy unintelligible post, Batman. Good lord. Downwinder, you should really re-read your posts before pressing the "Submit" button (although I have my doubts that will make a difference).

meaning right click it
That's the default setting, isn't it? I changed those more than a decade ago and have always saved my bindings file. For me, right-click is jump/mantle (to make it easier to make running jumps - having run and jump on two different hands). Frob is done with the 'v' key.

the reason what i say is not understandable,is cause most of you believe complete bullshit so when the truth is staring you in the face,and you are oblivious to the truth,but all good,i still got love for you all

Understandability has naught to do with truthiness, and everything to do with presentation.

ty yandros for the words,but people have to learn how to understand many ways more then what is good for them,this is a big world and if i am able to understand most i don't see why on here it would be different,unless you all come from benny's bloodline after a stop to the tavern :P

The purpose of language is to create a method of communication so everyone can understand what is attempting to be conveyed. The standard language for this forum is English.
If everyone just created and communicated in their own personal language all the time, no one would be able to understand each other and discussion would die.
It's pure arrogance to expect others to conform to your own "language" when you know perfectly well how to communicate in theirs. Try visiting a foreign country and see how far you get speaking "downwinderish."
