Half the time I have no idea what song you are talking about unless I go through the list on the front page. Please type the name of the song and kill the darn acronyms.

Thanks,

OK i'll do what i can. oh i mean "Oh kay". yeah i normally onlyuse an acronym the second time i mentin the song in a post. i spell it out the first. or if the whole thread is about a certain song i will abreviate it.

It really doesn't take that long to figure out the acronym, and it saves the writer a lot of time. So you could be considerate to the writer, rather than just yourself.

I hated them for a while too. Then I got used to them, it took about 6 months though.

yeah. we like things streamlined. i don't think anyone uses anything other than "Quick Reply" to post replies anymore.

sometimes i forget how to make the more obscure smiley faces and have to go to the "post reply" just so i can see the little smiley grid

I agree the acronyms drive me crazy as well. But once you get to know them they are better. I find myself using them when I talk to my friends as well and they are just like Whaaa! So I have to try not to use them when I talk.

I thought that DODO was an acronym until I got my Some Devil CD today. It was driving me crazy trying to figure it out.
