brb=Be Right Back

I think you will find that writing short term as you call it in the forums (and in the chat room) is not accepted.
So use the brains you were born with and type correctly is my advice, after all, it doesnt take much to do it right, i can understand the use in text messaging, but not here where you have a proper keyboard and 1000 free characters per posting box

What the cantancurous man above me said!
(Cause I hate this 'txt' typing too)

We don't use 'txt speak' on these forums, so please from this point forward don't use it when posting.

However if you want to post your acronyms on this thread that you might use in chat then feel free, just keep them nice people!
