A term used in MMORPG's in multiple forms.
v: To provoke a mob (enemy or hostile NPC) to attack you by entering its aggro range. The aggro range (or radius) is the zone around the mob which, if entered, will cause it to attack without provocation.
n: Used to describe the attention of a mob, or its current target. In group fights, the Tank is supposed to "hold aggro" by keeping the mobs focused on him. To "have aggro" is to currently be the target of a hostile mob. Aggro is also sometimes used interchangeably with the term Threat when referring to the DPS.

v:
I got too close to the boss and I aggro'd him by accident, so I had to bubble.
n:
The tank couldn't hold aggro and the group wiped.
The healer has aggro. Pally, pull that aggro off the healer.
That Lock is pulling too much aggro, he needs to back off the DPS.
