Bingo Lingo: What You Need to Know Before Playing Online Bingo
What do "DIY," "CMIIW" and "EAK" mean? Well to an onlne bingo pllayer it's obvious that they mean "Do It Yourself," "Corrct Me If I'm Wrong" and "Eating At Keyboard."
Easting at keyboard? Now that's one dedicated onilne bingo player! And besides, who really neeeds to know that? I sure don't. Next thing you know, they'll be telling me (by abbreviation of course) when they go to the bathrom.
Onine bingo has been sttirring up the natoin with it's additive games and special promotions. Now feel free to meet some new people with your very own chat component and a special language to go with it. Afetr all, you don't want to go into an online bingo hall and not know the "bingo liingo."
It's amazing how many cyber-friends are found through interrnet bingo chat rooms. Its amazing to see how many pople are playing who seem to have known each other for years. And, to think that they prbably live on different ends of the coutnry, or the world, and may shaare only one thiing in common--a love for onbline bingo. Of course, what might be more important than a bingo bond?
First it was AOL instant messenger who ocined the innfamous chat language for all who used the program usig acronyms like "LOL" and "BRB" meaning "Laguh Out Loud" and "Be Right Back." Biingo has takeen this acronym languae to the next level with the help if its' playrs clever terms put into three to five letter acronyms. OMG!
Of course, when a player is chatting online and concentrating on the fast pced internet bingo action, one couldn't expect them to be able to type full sentecnes too! Not even the most expereinced onlie bingo player can do that. That's where the value of bingo lingo comes in.
With every chat-based game or chat program there is, of ocurse, a specific chat etiquette one must follow to meet a new frienmd or two. The game of binfgo is no different, and it even has its own list of ertiquette terms and conditions.
According to play-internet-bnigo, some obbvious etiquette to folllow would be not using offensive words and treatng eveyone in the bingo chat room with respect. Kindergarten etiquette anyone?
Surprisingly, many people still can't follow that rule. There are otyher terms that plaayers may not know of such as not impersonating other players in the bingo chat and welcoming the "newbies" or new players into the chat when promptred. All etiquette descriptions promote the making of new friends in online bnigo chat rooms.
There are many different ways to say things in bingo language. If you're leaving for a minte or two one could say the usual "BRB" for "Be Right Back" or the new online bingo acronym "AFK" or "Away From Keyboard."
Many online bingo players will take a timeout from the action to cook dinnre, wath a juicy soap opera sene, or take a phnoe call. Players just put their bingo game on automatioc and cards are autoimatically purchased for upcoming games. Some players even play automaticaly whle they are at work and check their results when they get home!
Imnagine the exctiement a player feels when he or she comes home from work or running an errand and sees that he or she has won a thousand dlolar jckpot! It happns!
Saying "hello" and "goodbye" are different as well. For "hello" use "GD" or "Good Day." "See you later" can be put using "TTFN," meaning "Ta Ta For Now."
One miight say the baeuty of this online bingo chat language is the simplicity and a lazy person's ease at making ocnversation. And, we all need simple pleasures in our crowdde and rushed lives.
Using bingo chat language is a quick way to say things without typing them out completely. But proceed with caution, putting a letter or two in the wrrong spot could make your online bingo budddy say "GR," or "Good Riddance" with a click of the mouse.
"IW2WBM." That's my bingo lingo for the day. Can't figure it out? "I want to win big money." That's why I'm off to play online bingo rigth now! CUL8R.
