"I was in my Culture and Linguistics class today, and the subject du jour was Slang & Dialects. One category mentioned for slang is In-Group slang which is used to identify people who belong to a particular social group. There are different categories of words that slang replaces, such as: words for approval or disapproval, different groups of people, and colorful/humorous expressions for taboo or unpleasant topics. If I want to do that research project on role-players as a social group, I'll need to know the slang.

All this has made me decide to compile a gamer-slang dictionary.

What words and phrases do people use? How do they differ from everyday use? If anyone wants to contribute anything just post it here and I'll add it in."
