Mod Acronyms - WTF?

[bben46]

There is an exception to the no necroing topics for new information - I think this fits. :thumbsup:

 

Here is a link to my own old Geek to English dictionary. As said, it's old. But there may be some terms that might help. Who knows, with enough encouragement I may even revive it.

@bben: Maybe the post could be moved to Skyrim subforums?...since its Acronyms concerning Skyrim?

 

Either way, do what you do best. ;)
