I have seen on a couple of other forums a section posted for new people explaining abbreviations used on the site. I am not sure if there is a list somewhere on 6GC already, if there is I haven't seen it. I think it would be useful to have a list of abbreviations so people don't have to feel stupid and ask what does that mean, or worse not ask and never know!

Anyways, here is a start to the list. If any of the ones I have listed are wrong let me know and I will change them.
