The community’s sidebar doesn’t list a single rule so I don’t know how they expect to get users to fall in line if it’s completely unspoken.

Anyway this is a rare case of a very tiny community where no one is getting hurt so it’s not a huge deal. But if you plan on discussing news using any kind of acronym I guess don’t go there lmao.

Thoughts welcome! Am I missing something?

    Malicious compliance time. Define every acronym, regardless of whether or is in common usage or not. For recursive acronyms, just keep it going until you hit the comment character limit.

      Define every acronym, but define them wrong (lmao is an abbreviation for Little Mao, indicating a person with an overdeveloped sense of power over a little, inconsequential item.)
