Re: Ryzom acronyms

Nice job on that list Icenn, and here I thought we'd had about all of them, can't believe I missed so many

Yeah, there's general internet acronyms and then general MMO acronyms too, but I figure there's already plenty of lists of them out there...

Are people actually using SW - Spiderweb? I don't want to make up acronyms just to fill the list

Re: Ryzom acronyms

I think SpiderWeb will gain their nickname when we have some idea what they're like
Although I suppose it could by SW either way, SuperWeb or S****yWeb

Re: Ryzom acronyms

Not an acronym, but an interesting read for newbies interested in the basics of the game, can be found at Wikipedia:

Ah okies, I thought so and my reply was meant on a joking tone back But I thought I should ask just to be sure... I don't frequent Klients so who knows what kind of weird acronyms are sprouting there...

Re: Ryzom acronyms

I think we have about all the important ones then...

I color-coded the list, added some info where I could think of any, and made a seperate list for guilds. Anything I forgot?
