Homebrew Shorthand Thesaurus
In order to better help newbies like me to read the homebrew forum comments, there should be a sticky thread that allows refference to easy translations for the shorthand
In order of likelyhood to be seen:
PEACH: Please Examine And Comment Honestly
PrC: Prestiege class
3.5: Revised 3rd edition, the basis for the SRD (Systems Reference Document), found Here
PF or 3.75: Pathfinder, found Here
E6: Epic 6, 3.5 Ed varient based around keeping people at heroic fantasy, found Here.
3.P or 3.PF: Combination of Pathfinder with Splatbooks from 3rd edition.
Tier X: A standard Measure for how flexible a class is, Tier 1s can do anything, Tier 6 is incapable of suceeding at failing. Reference topic found Here.
PC and NPC: Player Character and Non-Player Character respectively
WBL: Wealth By Level
ACF or ACA: Alternate Class Features/Alternate Class Abilites

Re: Homebrew Shorthand Thesaurus
This looks pretty good so far.
3.P: Combination of Pathfinder's basic rules with 3.5's splatbooks.
Nitpick: "refference" -> "reference" in two places.Projects: Homebrew, Gentlemen's Agreement, DMPCs, Forbidden Knowledge safety, and Top Ten Worst. Also, Quotes and RACSD are good.
Anyone knows blue is for sarcas'ing in · "Take 10 SAN damage from Dark Orchid" · Use of gray may indicate nitpicking · Green is sincerity

Re: Homebrew Shorthand Thesaurus
There is a thread on this stickied in the roleplaying forum: Common Abbreviations, Acronyms and terms which should have everything you need there: (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18512)
A while ago (long while now), I had asked for this to be added to the stickied thread for useful information on this forum as well, but it hasn't been done.
It would be helpful to have a link on this forum as well so you don't have to go back and forth.

P.E.A.C.H. Please Evaluate And Critique Honestly. Being nicer and kinder doesn't hurt either. Note I generally only critique 3.5 and Pathfinder material.
Please, please, please when using non-core material, cite to the books. There are too many books to wade through to find the one with the feat, special ability or spell you use.

Re: Homebrew Shorthand Thesaurus
This is incorrect. The SRD (System Reference Document, better include that one) is a document that contains most of the basic rules of 3.5 upon which other d20 games can be built (it doesn't even have leveling up and experience gains, for instance). 3.5 is not the SRD, and to say so without qualifying that statement is to mischaracterize them both.
