Hva med forbud mot akronymer?
Folk slenger rundt seg med disse i tide og utide, ser ikke ut som de som bruker dem vet hva de betyr heller.
Hva med å forklare hva ordet betyr med en gang da?

CUL see you later
ENQ? are you busy? (expects ACK or NAK in return)
FOO? are you there? (often used on unexpected links, meaning also Sorry if I butted in &ellipsis; (linker) or What's up? (linkee))

FYI for your information
FYA for your amusement
GA go ahead (used when two people have tried to type simultaneously; this cedes the right to type to the other)

<double newline> When the typing party has finished, he/she types two newlines to signal that he/she is done; this leaves a blank line between 'speeches' in the conversation, making it easier to reread the preceding text.
YHTBT You Had To Be There. Used of a situation which loses significant meaning in the telling, usually because it's difficult to convey tone and timing.
<name>: When three or more terminals are linked, it is conventional for each typist to prepend his/her login name or handle and a colon (or a hyphen) to each line to indicate who is typing (some conferencing facilities do this automatically). The login name is often shortened to a unique prefix (possibly a single letter) during a very long conversation.
/\/\/\ A giggle or chuckle. On a MUD, this usually means 'earthquake fault'.
