Hopefully I have used the site correctly and my saws will show below.While I am trying to type, I am a nubie and am curious about some of the abbreviations,like PM,CAD,LOL and so on.Sorry about being so dumb but computers have not been my thing.
Well, pull up a chair, Ray. You're fixin'ta (southern for "about to") get hooked on this computer thing. I was confused a few years back also.
PM is a private message. You can read it, but nobody other than the sender can see it. There is a little blue box at the top on the right that says
Welcome, rheima.. Underneath that you'll see a little underlined spot that says
Private Messages:. If you click on that, you'll be able to see your messages. They will also pop up when you sign on, if anyone has sent you a new one.
LOL means Laugh Out Loud. You use that to indicate that something is funny, since we cannot do emotion through the keyboard very well.
CAD is Chainsaw Acquisition Disease. Kind of a joke, but you already have it.
GTG is Get ToGether. Mark has been to a few. guys getting together with their hardware, talking shop, and cutting some wood.
MM usually means Muffler Modification. That is predominantly for newer saws, in order to increase the performance.
Troll (not sawtroll) is a term used to describe someone who comes on here looking to stir up controversy. If you look up posts made by user "spacemule" you'll find quite a bit of troll business..... I think it came from the fishing term of trolling.
