One actually suggests you use an entirely different word, with an entirely different meaning to mean something else?

I must also add, in many years ive never seen these ever used in this capacity.

This thread is about COMMON shortenings and abbreviations. I personally do not like any of them, but they are absolutely prevalent in this game. I was dumbfounded hearing these. Again, this thread is not a dictionary, it is just a tiny list of the very most common shortenings commonly used in this game. A raised eyebrow googly eyes "o_O" certainly is one such thing. Are there a million variations? Yup. Are the others used in this game? Nope. :shrug: Are any of them linguistically correct? #$@& no. So what? All the more reason to list them somewhere relevant.

If you don't turn on [+] a large portion of players can't hear you.

It is spelled "n00b" with a lower case "N" and zeros instead of the letter of the alphabet.
