IBTL

IBTL is an internet slang term/abbreviation that stands for “I Bump This Later.” It is a phrase commonly used in online forums or message boards to indicate that the user wants to bring a specific post back to the top of the discussion at a later time.

Examples:

Example 1:

• User A: Hey, check out this new game I found!
• User B: Cool! I’ll give it a try and let you know later.
• User A: IBTL

In this example, User A uses IBTL to express the intent of bumping their own post later, reminding other users to check it out and possibly revive the discussion.

Example 2:

• User X: I’ve been experiencing some issues with my computer. Can anyone help?
• User Y: Sure, I have some troubleshooting tips. I’ll post them later.
• User X: IBTL

Here, User X employs IBTL to request User Y to bump their post with the troubleshooting tips, ensuring that it gets attention and potential assistance from other users when User Y is ready to share the information.
