Re: List of acronyms?
Thank's tka  Clears up a lot!
RP is then Rainbow Pretender too (just like RB)?
And I've seen SP used in connection to MP-gaming, so I guess somebody could use SP instead of SC?

I have never heard that SP could mean SC. 
Maybe somebody can correct me if I am wrong.

Most often RP is used to mean 'research point(s)'. As in, "an unexperienced Seraph is worth 5 RP in a magically neutral dominion". Or, "I'm 34 RP short of learning Orb Lightning this turn".

Well, like I said, I need definitions to know what acronyms mean. Without definitions you can launch all the acronyms you want, but it won't make me understand them (which might of course be the intention and a "hilarious" way to show have st00pid the n00b is)...
