So I have been a member on this forum awile now but haven't contributed anything to jeopradise the sanity of members here.Here is my first try.

COLOR="red"]Note: This thread in no way encourages/dissuades the use of the mentioned slangs. It for refence purpose only. The expressions,explanations and references mentioned are views of thread starter/post writer and are in no way meant to offend anyone's feelings and if someone feels offended-please close this thread and go watch cartoon network.[/COLOR]

1)TE-TE is not a part of speech missing the letter E. It stands for TechEnclave. Now you may argue that Techenclave is one word but would you rather refer to it as 'T'?:no:

2)NOOB-A noob isnt a refernce to a female anatomical part :O.It means you are new.New to TE (See TE) or new to the world of Technology. It means you are not yet a complete tecno-nerd but are getting there. Calling someone 'noob' is bad manners but you can refer yourself as the same if you feel incompetent.

3)NEWBIE- Is a variation of 'NOOB'. It is not something new you are getting for free.

4)GEEK- :rolleyes: The opposite of 'NOOB'. He knows stuff.Respect him 'NOOBS' and "NEWBIES' if you want to learn stuff.

5)JARGON- Is something that NOOB's and NEWBIES will have a tough time understanding. It's basically a sentence that contains multiple instances of Technology related slangs, Short Forms and a peculiar language only Geeks understand. Example "FS is DFI LP P45 DK T2RS Plus + Intel C2D E8600 since my mobo's gone kaput.Willin to trade with a 9800 gtx gfx card":bshit:

6)MOBO- Has got nothing to do with your mojo.Has everthing to do with your computer's mojo. It means motherboard. The big board thingy inside your computer where all the other small board thingy's fit.

7)GFX, GFX card- Is not your a reference to an Ex-Girlfriend or the birthday card she gave you. It sipmly means a Graphics Card.It is someting you put on a Mobo (See MOBO)

8)LAPPY- Is not what you change on toddlers/Is not a dog who likes to lick. It means a Laptop.

9)LOWBALL: Is not a type of bowling in the sport of cricket. Neither is it of any reference to the male/female anatomy. It means that a person is quoting a buying price which is way lower than what the product can be sold for/is put for sale on. It is an unglorified form of bargaining. Everyone does it on TE.

10)THREAD- Is not what you sew your torn underwear with. It is message opened under a subject where the replies are joined in form of message boxes below the main message. This page you are viewing is an example of a thead. i am therefore, the thread starter, you are the thread viewer.There will also be thread moderators who will decide wether you should/should not see its contents.

11)MOD- Auto enthusiasts note that this does not refer to 'Modify'.It is also not a typo for MAD even though similarities exsist.It is what you can become if you dedicate enough time for TE. He's your boss. Senior member of TE with numerous posts,reputations, ratings and has the ability to kick your a$$.There are people on this forum whose life ambition is to become a MOD one day. It's short for Moderator.

12)MOTM- Its acronym for Member Of The Month. It means bikeinstien. bikeinstien means a genius of bikes.(Sandhi sodva):Car3:

I will try to keep updating this thread with more synonyms,acronyms,craponyms ect. and world really appericiate if other enlightened members can also submit similar definitions.
cheers.:cheers:
 
In TE, BIKeINSTEIN doesn't become MOTM... MOTM becomes BIKeINSTEIN. :hap2:

In TE, ROTM doesn't mean Rig of The Month... ROTM is Ridiculous Overspending (of) The Member. :bleh:

In TE, Show-off and Damage can go in one sentence, and neither of it means a squat without pictures and numbers. :ohyeah:

:rofl:
 
Adding explanations for all those [WTB] [FS] tags, and how to use them. I donno what [DO] stands for, for example. @Udit: Sandhi is the pronounciation of the spaces between the letters in hindi/marathi, donno about other Indian languages.
 
In TE, being called Techboi is worse insult than being called Fanboi. The magnitude of Techboi is larger than both Fanbois and Anti-Fanbois combined. :P

If someone calls you Techboi, know that you've done something massively wrong.

There, I said it... for you Techboi fans... :bleh:

One day though, I would like to sit with Bikey and listen the whole Techboi saga...
 
if ever a thread is created by a member of the opposite sex in the member's introduction , then everyone will welcome her thrice and forcing the newbie to say shes a guy :P

Doing the needful Mr.Uriel and thank you for your kind words of explanation to Udit. I forget people can be marathically challenged.
@Udit dada, kemon aaccho?

Ohhh...thengu,thengu...very genorous of you to praise my crapynoyms. Mods...please make note of this request to make this sticky.

Some more noted abbs.

13)BIKeINSTIEN-BIKeINSTEIN doesn't become MOTM... MOTM becomes BIKeINSTEIN. :hap2:(Submitted by iGo)

14)ROTM-ROTM doesn't mean Rig of The Month... ROTM is Ridiculous Overspending (of) The Member. :bleh:(Submitted by iGo)

15)Sticky: Is not a chipku GF/BF or what your teacher whacks you with. These are those threads that will remain on your face no matter what. These threads have important messages or are backed by popularity (and power). You will find it curious that iPhone has a thread which is sticky but Nokia 5800 does not even though it has more replies and views. One of my short term life goals is seeing this thread get that status.

16)GO: t-o to hota hai, d-o do hota hai magar g-o ka matlab Group Order hota hai. It mean there exsits a specimen who is going to take all the effort of taking orders,collecting money,seeing that the product ships and is delivered to multiple members coz he gets a discount on his product. Or maybe he doesnt even need the product but doing it as a good thing for fellow TEites.You can question yourself as to this persons sanity.

17)WTB: Mala have, Want To Buy, je veux, ich will,amake chahi,मैं चाहता हूँ...kapish?

18)FS: Opposite of WTB. It stands for For Sale. When a WTB and FS coincide, It is beautiful. Sometimes they roam the pages of TE market without ever meeting so try helping these poor souls meet.

I have also noted there are so some axioms in TE which dont necessarily fall under the abbrevation category. So i think they should be listed under

Techenclave ke 'Katu' Satya's

1)In TE, being called Techboi is worse insult than being called Fanboi. The magnitude of Techboi is larger than both Fanbois and Anti-Fanbois combined. :P(Submitted bu iGO)

2)In TE, Show-off and Damage can go in one sentence, and neither of it means a squat without pictures and numbers. :ohyeah:(Submitted bu iGO)

3)Osama bin laden is not a banned word , but E and TT is !! :S (Submitted by forum67)

4)if ever a thread is created by a member of the opposite sex in the member's introduction , then everyone will welcome her thrice and forcing the newbie to say shes a guy :P (Submitted by kippu)

5)In TE, every other forum literally called "The Other forum":P
