I don't think it'll be a slippery slope if the forum moderators put a carpet down* (nice analogy eh?). lolol reminds me of those lessons in school "how fast will this car go down the slope with a) bubble wrap, b) carpet etc."
in other words, they put some rules down, which I think they already have. It's really hard to put these abbreviations into a context that allows it to break the other rules imo
