What is the short form for "Assassin"
Morgana
I like the ring of 'Sin, but in the FPE almost everyone was saying 'Ass'. I thought it was amusing, and I now call them 'asses' in the spirit of parody.

I just use Sin. I think the short form "Sin" was duped from Ragnarok Online, but I could be wrong. Asn could work, but that sounds like some short form for Asian. Well, Cantha is asian though...

In a couple games I've played, Assassins were abreviated 'sins. I honestly can't think of a better way to abreviate it than that. Of course Ass will aways be a good way to do it too.

UHhm, why not just Assassin? i mean seriously, it's easy to type and if people weren't lazy they'd find it's easier to put assassin than to debate what it should be

I refer to them affectionately as Asses.
Assmo sounds funny.

I believe ASN was used in D & D as well, although I'm a bit old to have gotten into that particular game.

Sin is far, far better than ass.
Asn is okay, but try pronouncing it...
Wa, mo, mes, ele, nec, ra, rit, all fairly easily syllables to bootstrap into your english. Asn? That doesn't work! Can you pronounce "sn" without loading it up with schwas? How do you say it? Does it come out something like Asian?

Of course, it could be 'ah-sin' or something. Short forms of words don't have to sound like it's..uh..wannabe word?!

Asn does sound too much like "Azn"

In the 2 preview events pvp groups with assassins were called assway.

I personally like 'sin, but then, I played RO obssessively for quite a while.
Someone said 'zin', which almost has an Asian/Canthan sound to it, so I like that.
Sin/Zin
Better than 'toon' for characters in general. >_<; Where'd that come from?

They used to letters "ASN" for assassin in Diablo II, so I've been doing it here out of habit.

From what I've seen 'Dead' would seem quite appropriate

Due to people avoiding "@$$" for Assassin, what are people are calling it. I've been using asa and people been have been understanding what I meant. At least Rit is easy. I did notice that advertising as an Assassin comes out A/X (X=subjob) |
EternalTempest
From what I seen in game and the forums, it looking like it's starting to split to sin or asn.
