Hi !
People use acronyms all the time to save on typing but not everyone is familiar w/these be it because they are new or have never ran across that on before. I figured a thread w/the acronym & meaning could be pretty helpfull to us all. Below I've included a few off the top of my head and one I've seen but have no idea what it means. (Some of them may seem basic to you or me but someone else may have no idea !) If you quote this msg delete ^^this^^ and just use the list below. Anyways I'm @ work so thats all I got for now.
HON = hand of nod
WF = wepons factory
REF = tib ref
inc = incomming
stfu = shut the fuck up
st = stealth tank
ft = flame tank
med = medium tank
obo/obe/ob = obelisk
agt = advanced guard tower
inf/infi = infintry
bar = barraks
SBH = stealth black hand
spmr ine halkjqwe!!! (or other uncomprehendable text) = Im in serious dog poo someone come help please !!
edit :
art/arty/arti/mart - mobile artillery
Can someone tell me what FFS means ? I keep seeing this but have no idea what it means, I've asked in game before but didn't get any help.

All were applied liberaly while I was in the Military. Sometimes all at once. I have a million of them. All "unofficial" too.

BTW, what does "AFK' stand for?
|
My little brother thought it meant "a free kill".
I thought that was funny. For a while.
