1.      /fail     


Commonly used in forums, chatrooms, and online games. Used to symbolise that whatever the previous or quoted person said had just completely failed, being a fail in grammar, or life. The / before the fail is derived from HTML language in which ending a function defined by a /. The / also emphasises how the person in question failed and should not continue to post moronic things on 'teh interwebs' as their father taught them, but to ask to have their passport and material possessions confiscated and have themselves shipped off to a third world country.

Not sure could be something to do with the fact that in programing the backslash signifies  - end of e.g. <i> means italic and </i> means end of italics - just a guess

The forward-slash is normally a command to do something. For example on WoW '/dance' is to dance.

There are better questions to ask things like this than BF2S, such as urban dictionary and for more internet related things, encyclopedia dramatica. (mature content on second site)
