Acronym What ?!!

General Discussion Started Last reply 38 posts
I was reading a thread and found an acronym that could be taken the wrong way, and wondered what others could be taken the wrong way too.

What was this phrase?....

A Grade Soul Shot

Or as the poster put it *** :)
okie the thing with A grade soulshot
is this on erica we called it ***
and it was Dbsps

when i moved to lionna they do the opposite
SSA
and BspsD


odd huh?
I always find it odd when someone is shouting that they are selling SSD, SSC.... You just know they are from a different server.

On Hind we use DSS, CSS... and yes ***
Dbsps, Cbsps, Bbsps...

WTB some ***!
Devianne has *** as well.

I remember being quite horribly confused by the change.
"Soulshot: A-grade" is the official name, so of course the correct acronym is "SSA" and not "***".

Which means that it should be SSAG...which posteriors tend to do the more you play this game.
Do you say Soulshot: A Grade or 'A Grade Soulshots'?
Most of us just say we need Shots, yes? When I need a C grade shots, I tell my warsmith friend I need lime flavored shots, B grade is cherry, A grade is just plain shots, S grade is lemon (I make my own D, but we call em blueberries >.<)
On kain its usually B-SS D-ss and A-ss but lately ive noticed alot of "DSS" and "SSD"

whats the big deal with calling it "***"?

There was a post about this pre C3...when they where adding A/g to the game.

I remember the conversation very well, And people would joke about it being called ***, or SS a..

On Kain it's Called "***".

And I prefer it, as a joke verus NCsoft. And Cause when I'm talking, I'm type the same way.... WTB A ss, not phonically: WTB SS a.

Who cares about how NCsoft calls it, since when does what NCoft think matter? they clearly don't care how we think! *This is to who ever said "cause NCsoft Says SS A*

I though the joke was that it was censored back then.

WTB -_-

good change imo. long as u dont say u need A-SS shots. thats like saying an ATM machine takes a PIN number.

LOL....
yeah it was funny when you typed *** it came up -_-
same as trying to sell a D grade -_- Sword (Bastard Sword)
i ask a GM why you would censor a item name... i was told i would have to type it different to bypass the chat filter... wich im told is a no-no
I recall a dwarf sitting atop the stairs in Aden, just in front of the church, with a shop set up:

"Best *** in Aden"

And this was on Lionna. I must have recommended her at least thirty times.
It's *** on Gustin also. goes with the rest DSS/CSS/BSS/SSS
BSPSD sounds much much more offensive in Russian than *** sounds in English :p

explain
and that would be DBSPS on gustin
It sounds just like a phrase that is better to be translated as "indeed". The phrase contains the tabooed word for female genitals, though.

"Soulshot: A-grade" is the official name, so of course the correct acronym is "SSA" and not "***".



You still don't say "A Car: Red", you say "A Red Car", even if the manufacturer described it as such.

Devianne has *** as well.

I remember being quite horribly confused by the change.



So Maline, can I have some of your ***? :D

Do you say Soulshot: A Grade or 'A Grade Soulshots'?



I sell it as *** on my dwarfie. Hopefully no one is offended, and less than mature minds are able to make the translation without too much giggling.
You guys/gals are going to get me in trouble :o

your the one that made the post...take responsibility for your actions.

you knew before hand while making this post that it could in the lest be made with "inudo". so why are you trying to act so innocent!?

I wish I had a toon on Lionna I'd run around all day pking you!!

I did none of the sort.... :eek:

I clearly stated what other acronyms could be misstruded.

Everyone took the "inudo" and ran with it :)

Well one I can think of is CP pots as in Sweden CP is a "mentally challenged person" well not really mentally but a person that cant sit still etc. sry dont know the english word.
On Sieghardt it's also *** although we start seeing the change in shouts to SS-A which makes it confusing when you're used to the "***" shouts LOL

First time I noticed someone advertising for SSA I was like "He's selling WHAT? Oo"
There's no specific use on Teon. You see all the versions. *** made me smile, but I found out there were a lot of possibilities of use for SS acronym in L2. SoulShot, SpiritShot, SpellSinger, SwordSinger, ScreenShot... but fortunately there are ways to distinguish them by adding letters. However, SS is alas linked to a painful past in Europe. I find it poor to say "I need SS"... but that's not really offensive as it's not voluntary. An orc with "Blood & Honour" as a title is. But that's something different.

Funny nobody mentionned other kind of "Shots" you are advertized about in spam emails.


PS: WTB 923!
I like ***, I just wish it wasn't so **** expensive. Just the other day, I was cruising through Giran, and I see this DE Chick selling *** on the corner. So I stop to, you know, check the prices. She was out of her **** mind, I mean it would have cost me a couple hundred K for less than 2 hours of fun.
why pay for 2 hours worth off *** when you only need 5 minutes? go to a party and bring just a little bity *** with you. use it for 5 minutes then declare in party chat "im spent." if you dont immedietly get kicked, you can sometimes get away with using everyone else's ***.
lol nice

so do you only like to use cheap *** on your weapon?? ;)
I sell cheap ***

some shouts I use:
WTS cheap ***
WTS fresh hot ***
(if there last night's stock don't sell) WTS last night's ***, cheap
WTS tightly packed ***, come and grab em

It's all in the context. If you get mad because of symantics that I might call you an ***.

Expensive *** is alright, but I like bang for the buck. So yeah, I go for the cheapest *** I can find. Plus, call me wierd, but shopping around is kinda fun. Although tbh, it's not much fun when there's no *** around, and you just have to settle for what you can get.

WTS last night's ***, cheap


lol
