Am I the only one left?

People reply to my coments with a short string of upper-case letters, and I scratch my head for several minutes then try to google an IM Dictionary hoping to find out whether FTRDS is a compliment directed at me.

Swear to god, I played online poker for 4 months, before I was told that LOL did not mean Lots Of Luck. So, you see, I am an idiot.

I'm sure there's a real name for this language, which I also don't know.

That crazy stuff that Triptanes (and co) do:
|\/|()()53
I can at least figure this out on my own...eventually.

Anyway, I was just checking to make sure that I'm the only idiot left.

(thread to be answered in techno-ese only, no doubt ).
