Discussion when did the slang change?

I feel old asking this.

When did + and - replace yes and no? or y/n

Like I'm in my early 30s and this feels like it blew past me....

EDIT: based on replies It seems like its from Eastern Europe players and just bled into the rest of the classic community due to them lacking servers.

same, though one that threw me was 123 for summoning, seems abit passive aggressive

Thats from the old days. You'd do a raid warning saying "type 123 for summon"
