At some point in early EQ the idiotic trend of appending PST to the end of all your sales announcements started. It wasn't around at first, and I quit for a while (maybe just pre-Kunark or just after?) and when I came back a few months later it was PST all over the fucking place.

No shit if I'm interested I'll send you a tell. You don't need a stupid acronym to explain that. And at a certain point I think people stopped even realizing what it meant because you'd occasionally see stuff like "PST tell."

I know the majority of people probably know it as Please Send Tell, but it was also an acronym for "Personal Service or Trade" - which, depending on how it's used, makes a lot more sense.

I pronounce Velious Vel-you-lus. It makes no sense in my head when I see the spelling, but it’s how I’ve always said it. No idea if that’s right.

in EQ i learned, rogue is spelled ROUGE, frog is spelled FORG, shaman pet is called a dogdog. expensive items are referred to as "spendy", very is "hella". as in, "that ruined circlet is hella spendy!"

"Hella" is northern California slang.
