I'm not trying to make a comprehensive list of terms and acronyms for the Internet (see the link above for that.) This is mainly for GW-based terms and acronyms. If someone doesn't know what lol is, they have a lot more to learn about the Internet than what I can cover.

Urban Dictionary also says that it is "for the loss."

SQ = Serpent's Quickness? Not as common, though.
