I hate to nitpick, but M is 1,000 in Roman numerals.
Anyways, thanks a lot for the thread; you've helped noobs like myself a great deal.

Re: Abbreviations
Yeah, my bad; I realized that not long after posted, but decided not to correct myself. The roman sybol for a million is 'M', not 'M'. (the underline is the difference...)KillemallCFH said:

Re: Abbreviations
Thanks for the great guide! It helped a returning player figure out what the hell everyone was talking about. I still didn't remember half the items to I decided to look them up.
In other words my Monday night that should have been spent studying for a Psych final (or any of the other five upcoming exams, for that matter.) was better spent:
Cheers,

PS- I can send you a copy of the raw post if you'd like to add it in. Just PM me

I didn't remove any of the items. If you want to quote & copy/paste, feel free. If not, I won't be offended. It gave me something to do anyway

Re: Abbreviations
I fixed up the list. Here's some of the changes:
-Alphabetized. All items are put in alphabetical order so it's easier to find something. Before it was just items thrown into the list.
-Headings in bold and italics. Makes it easier to read and split up sections
-Abbreviations bolded for quicker scanning through what's an abbreviation and what's the definition.
-New additions. Mostly in the slang/game terms area but I added a few new additions to the other lists too.

Way to revive a dead thread, but...
Actually, what many people may not know is that FoA is not only an abbreviation for Followers of Abraxas, the once biggest bulgarian guild in the shard (now dead, most players moved to an european shard due to lag issues) but it also stands for Followers of Armageddon, a cult that tried to cast the Armageddon spell (using blackrock as a reagent). The history books say that they were the ones that destroyed Lost Lands and gave it that strange relief. That is when the passages between Britania and the Lost lands were first opened, aka T2A.

Re: Abbreviations
Don't know if it has been explained already, I haven't read the thread to the end...
The kk thing is very popular among Brazilian players, because the word Mil means Thousand in portuguese, so if brazilian people say 10mil to other brazilian people, that could be misunderstood as 10 thousand gold.
But the math thing that has been explained is also true, and that is where the KK come from. The above is just an explaination to why people use it.
