cntrational: did you even read it? 1f, 6m, 666.

A simple but still txtspk-y change is to use numbers -- jip0 for jipno, for example. I believe that most Lojban parsers around would actually work with this;

http://www.lojban.org/jboski/index.php doesn't work with this. {jip0} is parsed only by ilmentufa for zasni gerna.

they convert numbers to their Lojban equivalent.

{0 lo jipno} is another case.

Ouch, my brain and eyes burn! I would feel enshamed if I ever
communicate in this way with any sane living being. ;-)
Briefly, I think this introduces many “What the fuck?” features and
removes a lot of “Oh, nice!” features of Lojban.

Here are the “What the fuck?” moments:
“lr” = “lorxus”? “lorxu” … Meh.
“m?” = “ma”? Wow, that’s pointless, it doesn’t even save you a letter.
xD
All words of the form “consonant apostrophe vocal” are a *huge* WTF
for me. Yay let’s just guess the missing vocal. You have a 80% chance
to be wrong. XD It would become especially fun for the “k'o” series.
Err, sorry, I meant “ka'o” series. ;-)
Not to say that one has to remember a lot of abbreviations. Sorry, but
the rafsi are already enough for me. LOL.
Speaking of rafsi: How would textspeak deal with a very long lujvo,
not to say fu'ivla?

Not that you think I have guessed correctly. Nope, I had to read your
solution first.

And like you said, this pretty much destroys the non-ambigious grammar.
Not to say also a lot of other “Oh, nice!” features in Lojban.

Well, it’s a nice Nerd’s Pissing Contest. A joke. But nothing more, so
I don’t take anything of it seriously. And you shouldn’t take my
response seriously, too. xD
