Strange Runescape Lingo?

Featured Replies

What Runescape or Gaming lingo that is totally wierd?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

mine would have to be just about anything that ends in "ies"

 

 

 

"selling lobbies!!!!" - is it really much harder to just type out "lobster" if your going to put an "ies" on the end?

 

 

 

"selling sharkies" - same as before but even worse....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

another new one that I came across the other day

 

 

 

*guy morphs into a rock* "rocking is fun" -.-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

can you think of any Runescape or gaming lingo that you encounter that just completely baffles you? This is about all I can think of off the top of my head...

Since I type "literately" I very oftenly run into people who say, "ur a gramer nazi" and then they use these little acronym's to their friend's.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My favorite has to be when I was runecrafting, someone said "Kai: hag". At first I was confused. Then I thought about it. Has a Glory!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I asked and (s)he said I was the first to ever figure it out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There have been some other ones, however, like you said, it's not coming to me. :-k

Dh for Dharok has to be one of the worst. Abby whips for abyssal whips is pretty bad as well. Most text messaging lingo such as 'wut' and '4' is pretty pathetic too. I type everything out even on my cellphone and these kids can't type one more character to make 'what.' It's kinda sad if you ask me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Personally, I'd rather spell everything out so I don't look like an illiterate or a 12 year old. In game and irl :P

as one of the few teenagers who despises "l33t" speak I think it's just easier to type on a cell phone in shorthand and it has carried over because of lazyness (I know thats spelled wrong but I don't know how to spell it correctly)

finally back in the game! send me a message, all my old friends quit

I laughed so hard I pooped my thong. :lol:

So many people don't know what "tbh" means. I try using it online with friends and no one gets it. So I'm not exactly sure where "tbh" came from, if it was RS or not, but it's definitely RS lingo.
To be honest. ^_^;

Oh, lmao. I can't stand when people say "ttly" for totally either. I always think they mis-type from "ttyl", talk to you later.

Yes. I ttly agree with ypu.

Hmm... The other day I saw someone selling a "rune satchie", a Rune Satchel I suppose. I am baffled at that. :x

 

 

 

It would be ironic if someone was added more letters onto a word. :uhh:
