Hello everyone! Welcome to RealZankyou's Guide to Royals Abbreviations. Before I get started on this guide, I'd like to point out that @Plenty already has a similar guide posted, however it hasn't been edited in 6 months, so I will be posting my version that I've had completed since my last server. I will be making edits the more I hear about new abbreviations or terms that are not mentioned in my guide. If you feel like there is an abbreviation that belongs in this guide, please leave a comment and I will make a necessary revision. First off I want to say that this guide is something I first wanted to do because I always run into new players. I'm always getting questions like "What does [Abbreviation] mean?" So instead of explaining each and every time what everything means, I decided to write ONE huge guide that fits all of the abbreviations, terminology, and slang in the game. IMPORTANT: - Use Ctrl + F to find a specific term!

That is "hit me up." Added, but I decided to name them as OB2 and OB4 respectively, just so it seems a lot more obvious.
