    Yes DUPE had me baffled for months when I first started because it means to deceive or trick I thought it meant the competition was suspect!

    Hello Fire*Fly

    Some more here for you. I come across these when posting/entering Rafflecopters or RC if no room in title

    BL ~ Bloglovin
    GFC ~ Google Friend Connect
    CL ~ Clout
    SU ~ Stumbleupon

    CL & SU I so far have not used in a title but thought as it is a way to enter extra times in RC's I would also put it here.

    I'd presume many of us now have a good idea what most abbreviations mean on here such as FB and TW (Facebook and Twitter if you're still stuck) but what about some alternative ones?
    EN - Effort Needed
    LET - Lots Effort Needed
    NSYNLE No Seriously You Need Lots Effort

    RCM5EA - Rafflecopter More (than) 5 Entries Available
    RCLWA Raffle copter Lots Ways Allowed
    RCHMECYHFAP -Raffle copter How Many Entries Can You Have For A Prize

    WTB - watch tick boxes
    WNTB -Watch nasty/naughty tick boxes
