Diablo 3 [Urban]Dictionary
Forum member Jaetch has done the Diablo 3 community a favor and created a pretty complete dictionary on Diablo 3. It includes abbreviations, shortened words, nicknames for abilities and monsters and much more. Check it out on this link. Below you can see a few examples:

Kulle Story, Bro: a reference to the oft-used line, "Cool story, bro." This variation is a tribute to the Diablo character Zoltun Kulle.

OBO: short for "or best offer," a term paired with selling items or auctioning items. Usually included by the seller in order to negotiate buyout prices with potential buyers. See: 'BO' and 'C/O.'

Quintfecta: a term used to describe items that have average damage, primary stats, attack speed, critical hit chance, and critical hit damage. See: 'Trifecta' and 'Quadfecta.'

Looks like I'll have to find the time to solicit more material or update it soon.

It's actually absolutely the same deal. Apart from the fact ArenaNet's team is much, much bigger and that it controls transactions instead of giving them in the hands of the community.
