So I was thinking to add simple abbreviations for texting in the text chat. Like simple words that we might use, example.
are = r
you = u
And more.
I think this would be a great idea because there are a lot of people who text a lot and I think it would be cool if we could abbreviate on simple words to make texting faster.

I'm accually against this. Too many people are too lazy to write "Hello, how are you today?" and write, "Hi, how ru 2day?" It makes you sound like you have no idea what you're doing. I mean, would it kill you to write a three letter word? We're not Lolcats for pete's sake! Sorry if it came off rude, but I'm not censoring my thoughts from anyone.

Abbreviations are great for when your texting someone and need to get your point across quickly and in under a certain number of characters. As for Wizard 101 text chat, I think you have the time to type a three letter word such as "are" or "you". But hey, that's just 50-word-per-minute-typer me...
