Just being helpful- I learned a lot on this forum and when I first joined I didn't know shit. Gotta start somewhere right?

That's not the way forward, giving people an acronyms list won't really help them. A lot of the acronyms they'll forget because a list is just a list, a piece of data that doesn't really make sense to them. Why? Becuase they don't know what most of these things really are or what they do and therefore it is better for them to explore and learn on their own. It's not like these things are hard to find/learn. By the way, you've made a mistake, that's not a good way to teach newcomers.
 
its a jumping off point. Just updated the mistake, pulled some from a list.

What?? you are just criticizing a really good work!!

The list is a _BIG_ help for the newcomers! and can be the start point for the later research!!

of course nobody will can learn the full list at once. but the list can be a reference! when one find a unknown acronym, just go to the list and find the meaning,
if one find interesting... just _research_ about the subject!!

The list is not only good for the newcomers! I bet that even the Gurus sometimes faces an unknown acronym or just don't remember the meaning!

so, newcomers! bookmark the this thread right now! you will need come back to this list almost every day for some time!

Congrats for the Thread man! thanks given!
 
Wow thanks guys! Copy and pasted this and it will come in handy.

Added them, thanks for your suggestions!

Really good work? lol

The OP clearly stated that the list was "partially" pulled from a list. A quick Google search can give you the answers to most acronyms if needed.

Just updated the mistake, pulled some from a list.



CPA should be cost per action. OP needed this list too :-p

That's what I'm saying, LOL. I missed that one but apparently the OP stated that he pulled these from a list.
