I'll see what ones I can remember off the top of my head:

IMHO = in my humble opinion
IIRC = if I recall correctly
LMK = let me know
LOL = laughing out loud
ROTFLOL = rolling on the floor laughing out loud
DLOH's = Dark Lords on High (in reference to the FASA game designers)
FL = Fearless Leader
AFL = Assistant Fearless Leader
FF = FAQ Flunky
RBT = Rule Book Thingy

Of course, on SRCard we have a bunch of abbreviated card titles (LotI, CoP,
LotP, ...)

I'm sure other veteran list members can add to the above.
