Definitions of terms used in PIMD This is an updated version of a thread I made in March 2015. ATA have advised a new thread is appropriate (as opposed to updating the old one). I have removed a few war terms as they seem unnecessary for now. This thread is aimed at newer players who may see unknown terms used on campus. PIMD uses a variety of jargon that may be daunting, but fear not! Think of this as a PIMD dictionary. It is highly likely I will miss a few words out. Feel free to comment these or ask below.
