I'm dumb and know nothing Jon Snow

So I keep seeing people using the term ADD for enemies in the forums and I'm just curious. What does it stand for? Edit: So they're literally just extra enemies and I'm dumb.

    Add: additional enemy mobs (npc) Npc: non playable character Aoe: Area of effect AMA: ask me anything Dot: damage over time (ty H1jAck) for reminding me of that one :) MLG: Major league gamer (ty marcus marcus) Dps: damage per second (ty again marcus marcus) TTK: time to kill (ty boogeyman333) Meta: most effective tactic available (ty CatfaceJohnny) Wipe: when someone orders a wipe, this means that everyone on the team must die in order to restart a checkpoint. (Ty PhantomBlade305) There are so many terms out there, I believe these are the most popular. Edit: please send more to add. Thank you to those who have :)

    • Adds = additional enemies. Mostly used in coalition with boss fights. You have the boss, and you have other enemies besides the boss; aka adds.

        • It's a word that someone used one time and then the person they were playing with heard it and instead of telling them that the word was dumb, they were too afraid to be different and followed along using the stupid word. Eventually other stupid people heard the word and thought it was stupid but were also to afraid to speak up. They all thought it was normal to use such a stupid word and were too lazy to come up with anything else. Eventually the entire population started to use the word and everyone died from stupidity. The end.
