    Default Guide to Short Words

    Hey guys


    Since Onrpg is one of the most popular F2P websites,when a new guy enters the internet he might just start pressing tabs and end up seeing these 3-4 letter shortening of words and become puzzled

    This little post is to expand it if you wanna call it that

    Please add any words that i forgot

    BRB-Be right back
    AFK-Away from Keyboard
    WTT-Want to trade
    WTS-Want to sell
    WTB-Want to buy
    AFAIK-As far as i know
    NVM-never mind
    WTF-What the ***** Shouldn't really add this one but it is used a lot these days
    DL-Download
    GTFO-Get the **** off
    OMW-on my way
    BRT-Be right there

    Thank the hawt groteske for these:
    TTF ~ This thread fails
    GFY ~ Go f yourself
    TMI ~ Too much information
    LFP ~ Looking for Party
    LFG ~ Looking for guild.
    FTW ~ For the win.

    Oisterboy
    TL;DR-Too long,didnt read
    Forgot the most important-LOL

    Urahara

    ROFL -> rolling on floor laughing
    STFU -> Shut the F*** up
    FB-> facebook
    MSN-> window live messenger
    IGN-> in-game name

    XWalrus

    LMAO-Laugh my *** off
    LMFAO-Laugh my ****ing *** off

    AnimeAngie


    Newb - A person that is new to the game and does ignorant things because they don't know better.

    Noob - A really annoying person that gets on everyone's nerves and is a complete jacka**

    Nub - A short way of saying Noob.

    WoW - World of Warcraft

    IDK - I don't know.
    Idc - I don't care

    pwned - dominating something or someone. A typo from Wow that instead of the npc saying "owned" they said "pwned" and hence the word is created.


    LOL has two meanings these days,League of Legends a MMO and laugh out loud
    That is all i got atm,add if you can

    Well people usually just say Wall of text and that implies they didn't bother reading the post, at least not in its entirety.

    Once again MageMoa ruins a thread.

    It's more fun if you use what you already know versus having to Google something and paste it somewhere.
