I believe every forum in every part of the world has it own unique language. A language that may not be a daily real-life spoken language.
So I'm trying to build a dictionary of indonesian forum's slang language. This specially made for our fellow international members, and any other people who care to know. I myself is not a language expert, but I'm gonna try my best and also with the help of other member I'm sure this dict can be accomplished.
