WWID

Acronym for "What would I do?"

This is commonly used in roleplay (like D&D, for example) when you're RPing as yourself and must stop to think "What would I do?" before you make your character take an action. Otherwise, you'd say it when faced with a very tough decision. This is somewhat similar to WWJD.

You also say this before someone's going to get themselves killed, and you don't know what you'd do without them.
1. "Hmm, alone, and surrounded by 10 bloodthirsty shadow dragons. WWID?"
"I could buy some pizza, or some tacos. WWID?"

2. "WWID if you died? I don't know - that's what!"

faction

This isn't an urban word, for one thing, but if the front page suggestion insists...

A group of persons forming a cohesive, usually contentious minority within a larger group.

The teams in the PC game, Alpha Centauri, are factions

alias

Another name that people use to disguise themselves. This can be done anywhere, but is usually online because it is hard to identify someone's true name except through their IP address, which isn't foolproof.

Variations on the word are aliasing, the present tense verb form, and aliaser, referring to the actual person hiding behind their false name, whose identity will never change (in online situations).

Aliasing is frowned upon because people may think that you're a new person, or in small-community games where everybody knows everybody, possibly even cheating. People like to get to know a regular client's personality, and develop a friendship or rivalry with them. Aliasing disrupts this, since you never know if you're talking with friend or foe.
That guy...He must be using an alias.

I think Bob is here, but he's aliasing.

The aliaser is aliasing if he uses an alias.

Pb

The atomic symbol for Lead; a soft, malleable, ductile, bluish-white, dense metallic element, extracted chiefly from galena and used in containers and pipes for corrosives, solder and type metal, bullets, radiation shielding, paints, and antiknock compounds.

Lead (Pb) is another word for the bullets that you put into, and shoot out of a gun.
I like to make Pb sandwiches.

I opened fire with my MP5k and filled the fool full of Pb.
