The Official FORT Lingo List
In the "New Infraction System" thread, ClosetNerd suggested that we create a public list of lingo phrases we don't want to see here. We thought that was a good idea, so here you have it. We tried to brainstorm to figure out all the possibilities, but we may have to add to it when others come to our attention. So, in other words, just because a word isn't on here, it doesn't mean it's necessarily fair game. ;)
Hopefully, even if a specific word isn't listed here, this can get across the "flavor" of the types of words we don't want to see.
Instead of "b4", write "before"
Instead of "U", write "you"
Instead of "ne1", write "anyone"
Instead of "gr8", write "great"
Instead of "cuz" or "cos" or "coz", write "because"
Instead of "prolly", write "probably"
Instead of "wuz", write "was"
Instead of "2", write "to" (unless you mean the number)
Instead of "4", write "for" (unless, again, you mean the number)
Instead of "ppl", write "people"
Instead of "plz", write "please"
Instead of "c", write "see" (particularly in the case of "i c")
Instead of "thnx" or "thx", write "thanks"
Instead of "y", write "why"
Instead of "r", write "are" (particularly in the case of "ur")
Instead of "kewl", write "cool"
