Acronym list needed

I am missing the message on this site, simply because I don't know what all the acronyms mean. A list would be much appreciated. I am not new.....just forgetful.

There is an acronym list on my website. (Under the Resource tab.)

Hey, Paul. Did you add "NotRot" to the list? Hehe!

Yes, it is there! Honest. (It's been there since I first worked it up.)

I find this forum to be useful and informative most of the time. I also enjoy the humor at times when appropriate. I will use the forum less in the future to ask questions or seek information.

True. Did you click the link as noted at the top of the list:

For the most commonly used internet acronyms, visit the Internet Acronym Dictionary.

The link to the dictionary that is provided is: http://www.gaarde.org/acronyms/. There is no attempt to list the hundreds of general acronyms used in texting, posting, emailing and general internet usage.

Re: Acronym list needed - I have a better idea, Alice.

Do a search on this forum for "acronyms".

Lists have been posted repeatedly.

I am forgetful as well, but I do seem to remember that the orange search button works.

Re: Acronym list needed - I have a better idea, Alice.

I was asking for acronyms used exclusively on Not.Rot. in Notary Talk. I already know the acronyms used in my profession.... thanks anyway. Thanks to Colorless/AZ for your list in Message # 14724( OBTW)

Re: Acronym list - not needed

Sorry, Alice. The comment I made about "NotRot" was not meant for you, so please accept my apologies. It tied into something that had occurred last week. You obviously were not in on the joke.

Thank God for Sylvia in FL; Sue_pa; and Marian who take the time to spell out what they are saying without using acronyms. I look forward to their input always. I will continue to read Not.Rot. and enjoy the humor by many.
