I agree that this billboard is great for abstaining from trying to kick and ban people for stupid reasons. Continue to allow people to be creative.
But I get so annoyed when people use chatline acronyms. I plead guilty to “lol.” It’s insane with “rotfl” etc.
You don’t really need a “hall of shame” but is it okay if I respond to some posts, with the phrase.
"THIS IS THE CHATLINE ACRONYM POLICE! YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT . . . "
I hate it when I was a teenager on AOL and people would tell me to “go fawk myself”. I mean, if you don’t even have the balls to say fuck on the internet, then who are you to be acting all bad ass?
I do not know what that means.

The best is noob.
Just kill yourself right now.
I do use laughing acronyms though… it gets boring to just say hahahaha or ← who laughs like that?
I just consider lol a synonym

i dont call ppl noobs (p.s noob is not an acronym)
Noob originated from online gaming where a teammate is a person of significantly less skill than you and you call them new.
this thrn turned to newbie
which turned into newb.
which took the form of noob.
personally i dont call people noobs, i call them boon’s.
