Doing a simple google search brings up Wikipedia and the Urban Dictionary as results #1 and #2. Both explain it pretty well. And there's a ton of lists that explain usenet/internet acronyms like OP.

Especially when you reply to someone that you know that English is not his tongue, everyone must tries to use simple words and phrases. Forums (at all, not just here), it's not a place to promote your English level.

On the other hand, I always saw sites such as this as a pretty entertaining way to improve my everyday english, pick up idioms and so on.
