A guild mate also suggested more:
MT also refers to Mana Tombs
newb vs noob: the first is descriptive (a person new to the game or to an area) and the second is an insult (a person taht has been around a while and STILL doesn’t know what he or she is talking about). Nub is just lazy-type for noob.

There are loads of people who benefit from a list and this is pretty comprehensive. The ones made up by people on a daily basis do not count until they are widely adopted.

Very nice guide, finally found out what PBAoE means years after I used to hear it called that on DAoC

I’m guessing you’re hordies cos DM is often used on alliance side to refer to the Deadmines instance as well as Dire Maul.

I know this will sound like a pathetically stupid question but being new to this game I was so happy to see the abbreviation chart. This has helped me tremendously. Now, can anyone explain to me or give me a connection site where I can learn what things such as :P; :O; mean???

Thanks so very much.

Hey, thanks for posting this! I was so sick of seeing WTS in Tradechat and having no idea what it was! Not to mention feigning understanding when someone talks about DPS, LOL.
