I'd imagine CR being used less nowadays, since the same abbreviation could be used for "Cross-Realm".
Looking marvelous in velvet.
Even in France, it's brez that we always see
I have mostly heard "brez" and sometimes BR since vanilla, never heard of CR though, that's interesting!
Q: Where the fuck is Xia Xia, SIU?!?!
A1: She needs to start making eggs for Easter...
A2: Drunk and sleeping somewhere.
I use them both interchangably.
No matter what you call it. its only acceptable to Res people in front of gastropods
struggling to think of which gets used more often, but generally I only am the person doing the ressing, so I respond to both BR and CR... (providing they deserve a res =p)
I got a whisper's for rezzing someone in combat, it's always brez
about 99% of the time its called CR when im in pugs/LFD/LFR
while raiding with the guild we just say res, since everyone gets what that means during combat.
EU region
German server here. I see BR or Bres being used primarily, or just a plain and simple "res him". Though the concept of a combat res is familiar and if someone asked for a combat res, I'd know what to do, but if I saw CR, I'd probably not make the connection at first, except if it's "CR the tank". Well, he's dead, so what else am I supposed to do than to shout at someone to bres him already. ^^

it's always been brez for me. Never seen BR...let alone CR. If I had to choose between the two...I'd choose BR simply because CR means "cooldown reduction" in a lot of games.
CR here too. Guess it really is an us/eu thing.
Europeans just use different terms quite often.
BR / BRez is the default for US Realms.
I know my sister plays the game on German EU servers. There they apparently calling their Alts to be their twinks.
Which is an outright wrong use of the term twink.
Ran into that situation one day when we discussed our experiences in the game and such. At some point I was like WTF are you talking about. lol

"The pen is mightier than the sword.. and considerably easier to write with."
never seen anything other than brez
There's no Z in the word, therefore neither brez nor crez is acceptable.
Its been called BR for as long as i could remember and i have played since almost the start and never seen it called CR.
Aye mate
Whatever you wish to call it, just use it on me, so I can use it on the DK who can use his on the other dead healer! GO GO GO... oh, you used it on the priest first... FFS!
EU here and it's only in the last year or so I've seen people call it CR, been using "battle res" since molten core
