[Richiealvian]

Whenever I said soil, no one understands what it meant. It happened at least 5 times.. not even kidding..

Indeed.. Looking from some puff puff myself.. matter of fact this game needs alot more puff puff. I chose the pink hair puff puff.. as thats the one i found to be
Super sS

I'll clear this up for you:

SS - Spell Speed
SS - Sacred Soil
SS - Stoneskin

Got it? Good. On a serious note though, it's all about context; if someone is claiming to have 31 SS on his robe, I doubt he's talking about Sacred Soils or Stoneskins. At the same time, if someone is telling the WHM to SS before Mountain Buster, it's not Sacred Soil.

Oh, and usually people use SKS and SPS for stats.

When people use it for Shroud of Saints it makes my head hurt. >.<

You've never been in the military or worked for a government agency.

agreed, in a day in the military, u will hear at least 50 (remember: at least taht many) acronyms....and depending on job

[Akirakogami]

Also it's not stone skin. WHM stoneskin upgrade is graniteskin. Say GS instead :P or else your pld will cast a gimped version of the spell on you.

Hi,

con·text
/ˈkänˌtekst/
noun
noun: context; plural noun: contexts1. the circumstances that form the setting for an event, statement, or idea, and in terms of which it can be fully understood and assessed.
"the decision was taken within the context of planned cuts in spending"
synonyms: circumstances, conditions, factors, state of affairs, situation,

The point of that is being that if you use your context clues provided to you in the conversation you should be able to figure out which version of SS you need to use.

One of the other posters described it referencing times you experience, pre fight, during fight, and not engaged theorycrafting and discuss stats.

Seriously. When I started working at my government job I had to memorize exactly 509,182,401 acronyms/abbreviations.

to which the natural reaction would be: OMGWTF?! FFS!!!
(I work in the military aerospace field, so i see my share lol)

I think the OP's request can be refined into: stop using SS without context.

I'm sure you can easily understand these:
Tank before pull: SS me
anytime: dont forget to drop a SS, dont forget to us SS to drop agro whm, SS me after landslide cause it helps

Context. Our best friend.
