Where the hell did "soz" come from

[Bob Impact]

So yeah, I play WoW recently they've put in a system that groups you with random people... since this system came about I've been in groups with people who use "soz" in place of "sorry." I get grouped with a lot more people from Australia now so at first I thought this was a regional thing but I'm not sure. Anyone have any background on this outside of people being to lazy to type "rry"?

I'd like to help but that would require knowing even a little as to what the hell you're talking about.

Fair enough, I see people type "soz" as short hand for "sorry." Why?

It takes up way to much time to type in those extra two letters. If you don't like it, soz, don't read it.
