This guide here is designed to help out newcomers and everypony else who needs some clarification on the sometimes confusing acronyms of this awesome site. Whenever I came across such gibberish it would always make me feel left out and not apart of the 'group'. With this guide I hope everypony will be speaking the same language and on the same page!
