Exactly. I've said it a couple of times. We need a stickied thread or a static web page with all the common abbreviations and acronyms for this game. At the very least for place names. I admit my lesser experience with the game all the time in guild chat with things like "SM?, huh" or "RFK?" I still have to keep spinning the wheels with SM for Scarlet Monestary because I have never been there so it just doesn't stick with me. :)
Of course I could also say that it's only polite on a message board to spell out any short form that you are going to use at least once before you use it or have it spelled out somewhere in the thread. The pressures to get the message out quickly are not as great as in game (where you could be fighting or navigate a bit while walking, etc) or on another more fluid media where flow of conversation can be important as well. But I'm only pointing it out in passing because I don't really care that much (but I do care). I don't know what EP means either, and I don't feel like looking at maps to try and figure it our right now so I too would like an answer. :)
