When I first entered an online bingo chat room I was just left scratching my head without being able to understand half the conversation that was going on. This is because every online bingo community has special terms and acronyms that are used that won’t make sense to you if you are new to bingo chat and don’t know the terms. Well that was how I started, but trust me once you get the hang of it and learn how to play bingo; you can sail through the online bingo chat like a pro.
The very first thing that I learnt from the online bingo chat lingo is CM. CM stands for Chat Master and it is also known as Chat Monitor and Chat Moderator. This is the section of online bingo chat rooms that will welcome you into the chat community.
The following are some of the acronyms that you will come across in online chat rooms for bingo:
BLNG – Better Luck Next Game
AFK – Away From the Keyboard
BLNT – Better Luck Next Time
GGA – Good Game All
GL2U – Good Luck to You
GLE - Good Luck Everyone
GM – Good Move/Good Morning
AFACT- As Far as I Can Tell
FISH - First In, Still Here
HABO - Have a Better One
HF - Have Fun
HAGD – Have a Great Day
HLTCR – Has Left the Chat Room
RTF - Read the FAQ
These acronyms are all more related to bingo and online bingo community chat room and there are many other acronyms that you will come across that are similar to your everyday internet chat terms.
To know that your chat room activities are monitored by the Chat Monitor is really reassuring if you are worried about security. As much as they function like a normal chat room online bingo chat rooms and chat communities expect a player to follow certain chat etiquettes, which are called ‘Chattiquettes’. Get used to the lingo of online bingo chat rooms and sound like a pro as you play like one.
