I figured out OP, IMO, DH, DD, to reply to someone with @ + their nickname,  and a few other expressions. What is a "troll" or don't I want to know?

[Shanus]

Oh.....Anyone want to make a list of other useful abbreviations used on forums? May be helpful to others, too.

It took me a while to figure out what DD, DH meant also. There are still some that I don't get, but I'm getting better! 😉

OP, you have posts all the way back to 2011.

Why do you keep pretending you're new to the boards?

(BTW google searches are quick and easy lookups for commonly used internet acronyms, articles on trolls etc.)

IMHO-- In My Humble Opinion

DBIL -- dear brother in law/

DSIL-- dear sister or son in law

DGCs-- dear grand children 

DGS/DGD

FYI For your information

IDK-- I Don't Know

Isn't this crazy? But it CAN save time occasionally

Don't you know how to google ?

In addition to the acronyms there is board etiquette.  All caps is considered SHOUTING or look at me I'm more important than everyone else.
