Some abbreviations have different words use but it is all about opinion. For example, IMHO which others might interpret this abbreviation as IN MY HONEST OPINION or IN MY HUMBLE OPINION. Some may interpret OP as original post, original poster, open post. There are some people might made another abbreviation which is IMOO that stands for IN MY OWN OPINION.

These are the abbreviations that some are mentioned in the previous post which is used only on signature campaigns.

Heard NFTs quite a while but they're Non-Fungible Tokens.

Hi 😊 Ebede thanks for sharing this list for newbies actually, im getting tired of people asking me what is the meaning of FOMO and others lol, it's a job well done, how about adding FUD on the list as well? Thanks

FUD - Fear, uncertainty, doubt
Shill - promoting something for your own benefit
HODL - Hold on to dear life
Whale - crypto bagholder who owns a big percentage of a crypto coin that can manipulate its price
Mooning - a growing state of a crypto coin in value and volume

From my few stays in forum, I observed many things thats making me to research by asking internet different questions through things I noticed here that I can't decode or explain on my own without the help of forum and internet.
I became confused and also lack some understanding whenever I come across of some abbreviations used by Bitcointalk users, because I don't know the rightful meanings of them, and it prompt me to reason and verify their meanings so that other beginners will find it so easy to understand forum terminologies through abbreviation without difficulties, the following are full acronyms of words used in forum.
1) PM = personal - message
2) OP = original - poster
3) FA = fundamental - analysis
4) DT = default -trusted
5) QP = quality - post
7) IMO = in-my-opinion
Cool

BCT = bitcointalk
9) QFT = quoted - for - truth
10) FOMO = fear -of - missing - out
11) CFNP = close-for-new-participants

They are many acronyms in the forum which I can't list all, but this link https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.44685656 and also this link https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19824318 educate us more nice through abbreviations

Most of the terms are used on a daily basis in the forums, perhaps the language or accent barriers are what make it difficult to understand, but all the quotes above are used outside the forum.

Tracking dialects requires follow-up and every day a new term may appear. Therefore, the elderly face a problem in understanding the language of young people. Beginners have to ask and keep up, and reading the topics will not be difficult.

Although, it is good to know the various abbreviations about, I'd recommend not using them yourself unless you've already stated what it means in your post. For example, if I was to talk about DT without actually specifying what it means prior, it wouldn't make much sense to those that aren't clued up on the forum. You should, aim to write your post in such a way that its understandable from everyone's point of view. For example, writing DefaultTrust (DT), and then later using "DT" is fine, as you've already established what DT means.

Thanks you sir for your guide because this explanation is something that everyone have to Know because is a nice method that will enable us and any other person in the forum to understand the full meaning of abbreviation a writer or the body of text as you said, example, original post (op)

This is especially true when it comes down to technical terms. You should be giving someone a chance to be able to search up technical terms, and learn themselves without complicating the matter by giving them abbreviations. Bitcoin is already complicated enough, and this forum also has its fair share of complex concepts if you aren't familiar with it. Its best to keep everything as clear, and concise as possible.

The others that I didn't see on your post which is also the same meaning or exact opposite as per number.
1) DM = Direct Message
3) TA = technical analysis
7) IMHO = in my humble opinion
8 ) BTT = bitcointalk
11) OFNP = open for new participants

Thanks for adding more things that are valued into this, and I think who ever that view this post and the person fall under the category of beginners will understand full gist of forum abbreviation couple with some corrections and I adhere to all the corrections for more educational standard.

There are more but I think those that you've included and that has been said by others would be the most popular that a newbie will likely to see as he goes into discussions.

This is really a good thing for newbies to become knowledgeable about the acronyms that are commonly used here in this forum.

@Darker45 is right, you should also not forget the "CFNP" so that newbies will not spam those campaigns who are closed and not accepting new participants.

These things are a useful thing to post and this is a quality post, especially that beginners have no idea about those information.

I think most use terms are IMO, IMHO, and OP these are the words I mostly encounter in a thread it's just okay to use this well some of us might not because they need to fulfill the number of the characters required for their campaigns, compare 3 characters of IMO you already got a 11 characters if you complete those words.

What I didn't find on your list and even on the lists of the other threads whose links you provided is CFNP. Perhaps you should include this one especially because a lot of users here, even those who have higher ranks, are still submitting their applications in the services section even if the subject is already indicating that the campaign is Closed For New Participants. Cheesy

Thank you sir for your encouragement and your direction, I will include it as you said, because is not everything we know in the forum, both the old and young. Once again accepting faults or an errors is one of the basic things that will bring development from anyone that wants to learn and I'm ready to learn.
