that's good to know I already knew what sms are allowed but now, I know what some sms mean!!

*stickified! ^^ Good idea on this one.

Yes very good idea !=)

Maybe it would be useful to have like the definitions...

Like

U = You

C = See

ect..

Just a suggestion ^^ But still, very good idea. =D

I just have one question,what does 4nd mean?

The 4 replaces the A in "and".

And shouldn't WTH be allowed,it could mean,What the heck,but if not,that's ok too.

Emily - I would have had all the definitions with them if I had more time and patience.

Foxy - wth can be taken another way, and I am not certain on the acceptability of the other word often used in the "word" wth.

Naw, I know it would take a while. ^^ Just saying if it was possible I think it would help. That's all =P

can I ask a question too? I never know what "wtf" mean...can anyone expain it to me?

Explained over PM's.

thanks^^now I know what it mean

oh WOW, saske.

this was a great topic to make, bravo to you mastermind. it should help people understand whats allowed and what is not as there are many terms and acronyms used and it's sometimes hard to remember how they are catogorized. although everybody on the face of this earth knows what lol means!

I can honestly say that I didn't until a year ago =P

it's a good thing you made this ultima, but if only we got people to read it and follow it.
