Bumpage!

Come on... this thread deservers a stickay. <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=17&t=45890&st=0&' target='_blank'>Peoples are asking about abbreviations</a>, and this is where they are...

Redeye · September 2003

Probably said but;

r - are
ul - unlucky
rofl - rolls on floor laughing (or just haha)
lmao - laugh my a** off (or just haha)
imo - in my opinion
imho - in my honest opinion
m8 - mate(friend, pal, buddy)
u - you
LOL - lots of laughing (or just haha)
btw - by the way
-eh - usualy at the end of words that end in "y" but some people use -eh to make it look cute(<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>) eg. fatteh
taht, teh, tehre - used by people who type too fast [ie: me] which means that, the and there
ppl - people
[some stupid symbols sorrounding an obscure word] - used before player aliases to show that the person is in a clan, and don't EVER call them by their clan name. I know what being called viagra is like.

And Firestorm, I haven't seen you in roobs in ages.

Redeye · September 2003

Like many people said egg, they may stand for different things, but they mean the same thing.

SuddenFear · September 2003

Time for the A, B, Cs.. ;P

AA - Advanced armoury. Needed to get HMGs + GLs, as well as build a protolab.
BB - Bile bomb. Dig the F4ing marines. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>
CC - Command chair. But CC is also an abbreviation for a hive in ns_eclipse, so pay attention to how it's used.

PHASE PHASE PHASE - Please stop humping the armoury and use the phasegate before I rip my hair out and fatally gag you with it.
stay in base please - For some reason, people have a hard time understanding this one. It means stay still in the nearby area, rather then running off alone and losing 50 resources worth of swag.
go to wp - Rather then chasing after that lerk or asking for a "shot gun" for fifteen minutes, please go to that nice little blue circle so we can actually attempt to win the game.

laming ==== the act of building WoL(s) to deny access to a location

:EDIT: ==== not to be confused with llaming, llamers, etc (note the number of "l"s)

uses

<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif' /> "I am laming up the ms"

<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /> "YAY!!!"

<img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /> (if not on teamchat) "SH*T we need shotties and gls comm!!!"

AlienCow · February 2004

Always thought IMHO was "In My Honest Opinion", rather than "Humble". Meh whatever. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

stylee · February 2004

I know GL is listed, but I didn't see "gren" or "HG" listed.

surprise · February 2004

awwww...

shame on you <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' />

i cant find <span style='color:red'> inc</span> anywhere

i think new players really have no clue what inc means
incoming od either a marine(-group) or alien(-group)

Trilag · February 2004

I concur on the importance of INC (incoming - "inc pwnos near ms").

WP is also missing (waypoint - as in "WP ALLLLLLLLL").

Droggog · February 2004

Sticky please <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /> even if its old

It helps a lot players from "other" countries (yeah, i'm from europe and a lot of players over here doesnt understand those abbreviations)

Add <i>tbh</i> and <i>m8</i> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

Also "pwned" and mmh <i>ohnoes</i> and <i>bob</i>

Okay i need a coffee <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' />

Cookeh · February 2004

NP - no problem(o).

as in : commander : " GET THAT HIVE DOWN NSPLAYER
nsplayer : " NP , i'm on it "

Gecko_God_Of_Dooom · February 2004

on my server SG usualy meens shotgun

Radagast · February 2004

freaking **** HS RETARD **** U U FAGGOT WTH OMG BSHAX = csplayer, most likely <11.

amckern · February 2004

cat / cp - catilist pack - 3.0+

amckern

a_civilian · February 2004

This thread is now over one year old.

Radagast · February 2004

wow it is, thats a good effort.

BlueNovember · March 2004

And it still is not stickied!!

btw, I agree that SG is shotgun, not sentry gun. A turret is a turret, not an SG. (Possibly a turrent though.)

"OT/OC offensive chambers/towers" is listed twice, as is "comm/com", but other than that, I think it is almost perfect.

Possibly an acronym for hand nade? Hnade just looks silly. Still, those who use team chat tend to have fast typing speeds, and those who don't use voice talk... Then of course, there are the boring ppl who dont say anything at all. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' />

Regardless, v good thread. Thumbs up. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />
