TBH, IMO that post was utterly ill-informed. FWIW, the likes of you are, UIMM, pre-prejudiced types who will do anything to speed your prejudices to the forefront. ITBT it is totally uncalled for, and anyone with any sense will DWTA, anyone who AWTA has no sense. In fact, it's ITSTL that anyone would even take the stand with such flimsy evidence.

Seriously - acryonms\abbreviations are vital shorthands and save God-knows-how-much typing time.

It's elitist, not to mention, insular, so this thread is a good idea.

We've seen numerous threads like this in the past, where a member has had the intentions of creating a "CW Guide" and none of them have been successful. I can't see this being any different. One of the beauties of the OT part of CW is the in jokes and acronyms. Sure, they might take a little while to pick up, but in reality it's easier than having some sort of guide and ruining them.

No harm in it being created, I reckon. And if it makes some posters less smug about knowing anything and everything about what is posted on this forum, so be it.
