A Quick Primer In Bingo Chat Lingo

Many new online bingo players in the UK - especially older ones - find all of the abbreviations used in the bingo room chats to be quite confusing. In order to help you join the conversation, we have compiled a short list of the most common shorthand terms used in bingo chats:

AFK: This is what you type when you desire to indicated that you will be "away from (the) keyboard"

NP: the abbreviation "NP" means that there is "no problem" and everything is fine

OMG: This term has gained widespread use both online and offline, but if you are still not familiar, it means "oh my goodness"

BBS: Just like "AFK", if you are stepping away from the computer you can type "bbs" which means "be back soon"

BTW: Using the abbreviation "BTW" is a simple way to say "by the way..."

ROFL: Most are aware that when you type "ROFL" that you are "rolling on the floor laughing"

GG: The abbreviation "GG" can either mean "good game", or it is sometimes used to say "good going".

GL: Say "GL" in the chats when you desire to wish someone "good luck"

HB: If someone says "AFK" or "BBS", then you can reply with "HB" which means "hurry back"

WB: Once they return, you can then say "WB" which means "welcome back"

WTG: As a compliment, you can say "WTG" when means "way to go"

TY: Most of you know that "TY" simply means "thank you"

Hopefully, you can now better understand what is going on in the chats and dive right into the conversation!
