Love the changes, except I feel that GLA should probably become GLD (people will get used to it after a week or two, trust me). This change will also benefit new players, methinks.We finally got the OK to make these changes, so they will be going live in 1.19. Thanks for the posts everyone, and I hope you all find the new class abbreviations easier to understand.
Gladiator = GLA (no change)
Goldsmith = GSM (changed from GLD, because of similarity to Gladiator)
Leatherworker = LTW (changed from TAN, thanks Enyyx!)
Conjurer = CNJ (changed from CON, just because)
(braces self for further outcries...)
Anonymoose makes some great points, I think you should strongly consider his proposal.
They may want to consider changing Gladiator to GLD because my fingers are really stupid ; ;We finally got the OK to make these changes, so they will be going live in 1.19. Thanks for the posts everyone, and I hope you all find the new class abbreviations easier to understand.

I'm all good with the changes. LTW is fine just like GSM, because its actually 2 words in one. In both cases its taking 1 letter from 1 word and the other from the other word. IMO they don't need to change everything...just what turned to be an ingame issue like GLD was. I always called Leatherworker as LW and goldsmith GS so its not really a problem (at least to me) just having a middle letter here.
I've never been a fan of the "two letter" method. It works for a lot of stuff, but for some things it gets really confusing.I'm all good with the changes.

- BS (blacksmith or bullshit? lol)
- GS (goldsmith, great sword, or gilseller?)
Thanks, Eemeefu!
Lol very true =P I meant as general chit chat, where the other knows the context of what you're saying. But yep, 3 letters are much better for general understanding. ^^
