After spending a lot of time on this, and various other forums I have finally managed to work up enough courage to confess I have no idea what some of you are saying.
imo/imho=?
tbh=Im guessing to be honest
<3=?
I think there should be an online dictionary for this. Anyways, anyone care to tell me what these things mean?

<3 = a Heart, love. (I.e. <3 HL2 )

Er, there are online dictionaries for this (see Wikipedia or various 'urban' dictionaries or acronym finders).

I thought <3 was a heart.
I love it! you can say " I <3 gwil" then when gwil says
"mother russia poops on you!" I respond with "I </3 gwil" (thats a
broken heart) Its way better than waisting time typing my feelings out.
