Title Says It All - meaning that no text was needed, because of such a descriptive title

It makes my heart bleed when people do not read the sticky threads first.

Common Acronyms

Better get a band-aid for that bleeding heart, Dundee.

I've been BBS'ing since 1990, and I never ran across IIRC before. It simply didn't occur to me that it would be listed as a "common" acronym.

Still, I reckon every drop of wasted bandwidth is another drop from the heart...

ROFL! I hope people wont use these too often.
"So, after I fire all my MMM, I DOHM and charge in; dual wielding DoE & FoA. IIRC that is. It could also have been CFury & CFaeyr. Of course, my cleric was using the GoWE to get more ApR."

Those acronyms are just to make things easier for us to type out our posts, especially when we have to type out a lot, and seriously, typing out "Abi Dalzim's Horrid Wilting" over and over again is a nightmare.

As a personal rule of conduct though, I tend to type out in full the first time I use a long phrase/name, then proceed to use the acronym.

For Example:
Abi Dalzim's Horrid Wilting( ADHW) is a level 8 arcane spell, and is a popular spell pick among the players. ADHW deals Magic Damage and is not easily resisted by most enemies.
