I know there many words that people still not sure about. Such as b/o c/o s/b and all that. I was wondering what 12 chars ment. By the way feel free to add in other words or define the ones I've just listed above.

try makin a post that has less than 12 characters in it

it wont let u
so, ppl write 12 chars to extend their post to meet teh req.

i actually knew an exploit to bypass teh 12 char req...
but it has been fixed

b/o = buy out
c/o = current offer
s/b = starting bid

all have to do wit selling/auctions

just a general question, but what is "bump"?

snaek · May 25, 2008, 01:06 AM // 01:06

bump = when someone wants to 'bump' his post to teh top of the latest threads

as time goes by, new threads r created, and older posts get pushed down to teh bottom

used often in trading
as in those sections, 2 or 3 day old threads can find themselves on teh 2nd page easily
and therefore, less seen by other ppl

20/20 set: Half casting/Skill recharge of spells
40/40 set: has a 20/20 wand and 20/20 focus, but ends up being 36/4 /36 (one of the mods can trigger twice)

Abit curious, did you spell it on purpose this way or you got used to typing "e" after the "h". I remember myself facing this problem some time ago too
