I would say that YMMV should not be in a list of UA
acronyms, because this is a rather ubiquitous acronym all
around the Web. If you include YMMV, then people will
invariably ask, "Why don't you have IMHO, BTW, and AFAIK?"
I'd rather just stick to acronyms that pertain only to the
world of UA and this list (such as IMUAC). Ask someone
outside of UA what YMMV is, and odds are pretty good, he
knows what it means. Ask someone outside of UA what LG$
is, and he might respond with, "Ummm, Lawful Good but
stinking rich?"
So, if I get a vote, I say that YMMV should not be in a UA
acronym list.
But then again, YMMV.
