It's just an easter egg and has nothing to do with Bitcointalk. It's something SMF (the forum software we're using) has done.

There are quite a lot of posts on this enquiry, here are some of them you would have seen if you checked through the search button:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1611258.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2091815.0

Mind you that there are a dozen more threads than this, you can obviously find your answer in the reply or the links above, and also when you Google about it.

you made 1337 posts so the easteregg translated it to leet
now you have made your next post 1338, everything is normal again.

oh. and if you were lucky enough to have got 1337 posts and also 663merit |↷ flipped Ɛ99 (egg)
then on april 1st a female model will knock on your door                                 

I DO NOT TRADE OR ACT AS ESCROW ON THIS FORUM EVER.
Please do your own research & respect what is written here as both opinion & information gleaned from experience. many people replying with insults but no on-topic content substance, automatically are 'facepalmed' and yawned at

This is one question probably asked by thousands of people in the forum. Each time someone notices this, they create a thread instead of google/search on forum. What about adding a link to a "leet" thread beside the word "leet"? I guess that would be good however, people being much worry wouldn’t anymore be worried LOL.
