Fonts look extremely strange in XORG [SOLVED]

I'm having an issue with fonts in xorg. They look deformed and I have no clue what is causing it. I've tried changing DPI but that changes nothing.
This is what it looks like:

The font is lime 9px. I've tried others too and they look odd aswell.

Does anyone know what it might be?

It has wide spacing, that much I can see.
What font is it exactly or does it happen with every font? Post your font configs.

Yes this does happen with every font I've tried.
I do not have any font config that I know of.

Does it happen for bigger fonts, say 12 or 14?
You have nothing regarding fonts in your .xinitrc, .Xdefaults or .Xresources?

Does that mean you don't set the font in a .Xdefaults or .Xresources file? Did you install the artwiz-fonts from [extra] or from the AUR? What terminal do you use?

Edit: too late yes

Yes this happens for every font, no matter the size.
This is my .Xdefaults:

Try:

URxvt*font: xft:lime
URxvt*boldFont: xft:lime

and remove/uncomment

#URxvt*letterSpace: -1

That worked, changing from lime.se to lime worked.
