> A Dictionary of commom Forum abbreviations! It' would be a page that you could get to from a link at the top of a page, and something could *catch the abbreviations and make them links to their appropriate spot on the page. For example, if someone typed "DotA" in the "Message" field, it would link to the part of the page that says:
>
> DotA - Duel of the Ages
>
> For that matter, that definition could link to the main "Duel of the Ages" page.
>
> So, whaddya think?

Normally, I like to follow standard public forum protocol (like when writing for a journal publication) and first state the phrase in question in full -- followed immediately by the abbreviation or acronym. I then use the acronym for the remainder of the dialogue. That's just to make it easier for newcomers to follow; usually.
