Is there anywhere on TUG website a glossary for all the acronyms that are used in discussions. If not, there should be because new members have no way knowing wht half the discussions are about.
 
I think it would be helpful to add some non-business acronyms like DD, DS, DH, DW and the like. I'm not sure if it means Darling Husband, Dear Husband or Dumb Husband. I guess it depends on the day!!

:hysterical:

Seriously, this confused me for awhile and I couldn't find what the heck people were talking about.

Shux, those foggy, murky, mysterious, confusing timeshare abbreviations & acronyms, etc., serve a valuable secondary function.

After a while, when you realizing you're reading'm & understanding'm & using'm yourself, then you know you are no longer a timeshare newbie -- not that there's anything wrong with being a timeshare newbie.

I am glad I am not the only one that couldn't figure those ones out!!
 
I had someone ask me about these, so am "bumping it back up".

you can start a thread about that. I'm not use in all those stuff!
 
Off topic, but Dave, why do you have a link to a Hawaiian temite company on your post?
