"This Time to the Public Forum."

It's used when you sent a message to a-d by mistake, intending to send
it to a-b; if you want the message to count, you then have to
sheepishly resend it to a-b, explaining that you sent it to the wrong
forum initially.

This sort of thing happened often enough that the apologies and
sheepish explanations eventually collapsed into a single six-letter
initialism. (It also seems to have taken on a sort of Agoran-legal
meaning, approximately "I perform the actions in the message quoted
above" – quoting a message from a-d in a-b doesn't normally perform the
actions in it, but the TTttPF clarifies that you're meaning to take the
actions.)

This could lead to an interesting CFJ – is a "TTttPF" sufficient to
take the actions in a message you're quoting if some players and/or the
intended recipients don't know what "TTttPF" means? The situation is
comparable to that of 
"nkeplwgplxgioyzjvtxjnncsqscvntlbdqromyeyvlhkjgteaqnneqgujjpwcbyfrpueoydjjk",
but different enough that I think it makes for a different case (as
most long-time agorans know what TTttPF means but the whole running
joke with nkep is that most players don't know what it stands for).

And having said that, I just found this [1] old message explaining it.

I'm beggining to feel Agora needs a glossary.

DIS: I can't take it anymore

2022-08-22 Thread juan via agora-discussion
I can't take it anymore.

I searched the web for it, but the only significant hits were for
Agora's archives.

I even grepped the ruleset with varying regexes trying to understand.

But I can't.

What does "TTttPf" mean?!?!

CoE: I have zero blots, as my alleged violation was never investigated.

Also, my name’s spelled wrong throughout the report.
