Reading But Not Replying

RBNR is used in a chatzone where someone reads a message and doesn't reply.

Here's an example of someone Reading But Not Replying in a chat;

19:01 Dan: Hello? (READ 19:02)
19:03 Dan: I know your there:L (READ 19:03)
19:04 Dan: rbnr? (UNREAD)

read only

The mode your brain goes into after drinking too much. Much like file protections on a PC. A sub-state of Read/Write mode, which people normally operate in.

I really did that? I must have gone read only pretty early after those lemon drop shots.

Read the Room
