Explanation of general definitions

Hello
Maybe someone can explain some general definitions.
Under Rules there ist the column Queue. There is written qACK/qGames . What thas this mean.
Sometimes its only qGames written there. Maybe someone can explain this to me.I use Pfsense 2 with Traffic Shaper

TCP traffic needs to acknowledge that it received a packet. That is what the qAcks is for. UDP traffic doesn't acknowledge that it received a packet. If you look at the rules you will see that TCP traffic uses qACKs/qGames while the UDP traffic only uses the qGames queue.
