sdcd Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Hi Everyone, I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place, but is there a list somewhere of the different abbreviations used on the forums? I finally figured out HTS meant hard to sell, but there are some that have me stumped. Thanks for helping a newbie!
livvy Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 I'm sure there's a list somewhere... I'm just not sure where. =S But if there are any specific acronyms/abbreviations you have in mind right now, I can help you with those.
sdcd Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 I was looking in the adoption and trading center and came across this statement: I like WN pets, but if you have a really good pet Ill overlook the BN So what does WN and BN mean? I feel so stupid that I can't figure it out o_O
livvy Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 WN and BN mean "well named" and "badly named." Badly named pets are pets whose names contain an unnecessary amount of numbers or x's (like xJonasxBrothersxrockx or something like that.)
sdcd Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 got it! Never thought the name was that important. Thank you for your help.
Unstream Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Pets with numbers are usually considered badly named too. A good name would be something you made up. Think Tolkien's elves' names in Lord of the Rings. Here's a list for you: http://www.sunnyneo.com/abbreviations.php
livvy Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 And there goes Will being infinitely more helpful than I. :P Anywho, I'm glad I could answer your question, and the site should be able to answer the rest of them. =]
Masaryk Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 TDN does have a list of abbreviations. It can be found here.
Ashbash Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 That list is awesome! I always have trouble with abbreviations. I also had no idea what HTS, WN, or BN stood for until reading this thread just now so don't worry, you are not alone!
sdcd Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 Thanks for the links! I knew there had to be a list somewhere. This topic has been edited by a member of staff (Stephé).

Secre Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 That list is quite awesome - I've spent so long not understanding these acronyms...I hadn't even thought there may be a list!
