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:

I don't know if this applies here, but I read somewhere that the words that come just before disaster are things like:
"I've just had an idea."
"Hey, Y'all! Watch this!"
"Don't worry. I can make it."
"I think everything will be okay now."
"I've done this a hundred times."
"It's perfectly safe."
"Hmmmmmmm. I wonder what would happen if..."
"Hurry, or we'll be late."
"Don't worry about it."
"It's just a safety device. Disconnect it."
"It just might work."
"It won't cost much."
"This the best way to do it."
"What could happen?"
"It's only 110 volts."
"Let me show you how to save a little money."
"There's an easier(quicker, cheaper, better)way."
"This stuff won't burn or conduct electricity."
"Murphry Law is a joke."
How"What went wrong?ard
