Is there some sort of 'dictionary' for all of these abbreviations used in the forum. I've learned most but some just don't click.

Yeah, so uncool. I may across as completely ignorant but hey, DIGAS ? :lol:

Seriously, I need help. :Oops:

Which ones are you referring to?

There are a few that I come across, sometimes maybe only once or twice (going over older posts) and then there are some regular ones.

IMHO or IMOH?
OOTB is another.

I take there is nothing, don't worry, I just wanted to know if there was something available if not I'll work it out as I go. Thanks.

OOTB is another.There are websites dedicated to internet shorthand and jargon...like THIS (http://www.gaarde.org/acronyms/)

...here's the ones you listed.

IMHO = In my humble opinion
OOTB = out of the box
