There are quite a few I use from various MMOs and then have to explain. One which can be related to tabletop RPGs as well is when someone is not very good at something so I would say "they didn't put much points on culinary" for example.

Ha I like that one 😆 I wonder what the equivalent would be for other games or even non-gaming communities?

well if you want to use terms from FFXIV, then it could be "level 1 culinarian" and someone really good would be "master culinarian" (as you can specialise in 3 crafting jobs, will have increased stats and access to master recipes to craft special items)

For me, it's "kek", "Internet Spaceships are serious business", epics, looting, violet and greenies, and various A/B/S-grades. This kind of slang can even be applied to everyday scenarios, like saying "Aldi is a D-grade shop."

Additionally, I incorporate a lot of slang from IT, management, and Fintech. During conversations, I typically gauge the other person's knowledge and then connect slang vocabularies to ensure effective communication.
