A few social ones:
BRT - be right there
TY - thankyou (also TYVM for thankyou very much)
NP - no problem
YW - you're welcome
Following on from the pally blessings listed in the previous post:
Salv - Blessing of Salvation (more commonly used than BoS, I find)
Sac/BoSac - Blessing of Sacrifice
Mage:
AP - Arcane Power!
3MM - don't know if this is a server-specific thing; 3MM is the 3 Minute Mage, ie an arcane/fire specced burst damage mage who leads off with AP/PoM/Pyro (Arcane Power/Presence of Mind/Pyroblast) and has you 90% dead before you can draw breath.

Not all WoW specific, but you'll see a lot of
LMAO - Laughing my ASS off
OMG- Oh My GOD
SWD- Shadow Word: Death
SWP - Shadow Word: Pain
SL - Shadow Labyrinth
Corrected some :P
Also I will add for instances
VC = Dead Mine (VC is based on last boss name, and to prevent confusion with DM, Dire Maul)

Unlimited potential in this thread.
The trickest one is SS, what does that mean?
Usually Soulstone, like mentioned in my list. =P
Serpent Sting? Scatter Shot? Sinister Strike? Sweeping Strikes? Steady Shot? Shield Slam? Silencing Shot? Savage Strikes? Serpent's Swiftness?
There are more, I'm sure.
Alliteration makes baby jesus cry.

I have a question about two different forum abbreviations.
IMBA and TL:DR I have seen them used a few times and have NO idea what they mean. If someone can clarify that for me.

AoE - Area of effect
PoM - Presance of Mind
FP - Flight Path
Zep - Zeplin
AB - Arathi Basin
WG - Warsong
EOTS - Eye of the Storm
AV - Alterac Valley
PoM can also mean Prayer of Mending, depending on context. And presence is spelled with an e, btw.
Prayer of Mending is usually called "PoMend" or "Mend" on my servers. Presence of Mind/PoM has been around since launch, so that acronym is called for! ;)
