I have to thank the young lady oover at Make$ Money$ for adding me to this list. Took me a while to figure out where all these links were coming from, as well as to find the one that added me, but I finally did so the list goes on. There are some great blogs on here that deserve more readership. I’ve seen a few of them before actually and am glad to pass them on to you.

**taken from Blog-Op**
The premise is simple: Write a post, and copy and paste my list from below into it. Make sure the links are active and correct. If your blog is on that list, remove it because your post isn’t about self-promotion. Don’t worry, because if your name is on mine, it’s on others and will spread. Add your favourite deserving blogs to the top of the list (not compulsory). Publish the post. People will notice the incoming links, and hopefully write their own z-list posts. The result will be that we all get more links pointing to our blogs, and more readers – got to be good!

Key Points

1) Create a new post on your blog.
2) Copy and Paste the entire list of blog links below (easiest way is to right-click>View Page Source>Copy the long list of code that has the links in it)
3) Add any blogs that you want to include near the top of the list. (Optional)
4) Include the blog where you first got the list from, in your post as well as with your adds if they aren’t in the Originals list already. (I’ve seen them excluded from lists and not carried forward, so make sure you include the one that you are going to give credit for putting you on the list.) .

5) Do not include your own blog links on the list in your post.
6) Make sure that all links are copied intact.
7) Publish the Post.

¡Hola! Oi! Hi!
Shut Up and Drink the Kool-Aid!
Women, Art, Life: Weaving It All Together
Community Guy
Social Media on the fly

People say these terms on boards all the time by abbreviating them. “LOL!”, or “LMAO!”, “ROFL!”, and even in extreme circumstances where it all comes togehter “ROFLMAO!”. I find it hard to believe that anyone actually rolls around on the floor and laughs their ass off. I know I never have and I’ve smoked weed. I suppose with some serious mental issues it may happen, but it can’t be common. So really…if someone says “lol” which means “Laughing out loud”, do you really believe they are? Sure what you said might be funny, but come on. Unless you get a response of “ROFLMAO!” I doubt you can really even think what you posted is that high of comedy. After all “lol” is basically like a grin in the internet world. Yeah it is funny, but I’m not going to risk the people in my home thinking I’m going insane to actually laugh at loud for it.

Now I’ve noticed that this stuff is actually said in real life. In fact I have actually had to bite my toungue a few times from saying one of these abbreviated expressions out loud. I’ve actually heard people say “lawl” to express the term “lol” to me before, or “roffle” ro express “ROFL”. Some day you will hear your parents bust out with a good old “roffle” to one of your jokes and you will wonder if life is really this screwed up. It is.

No this person isn’t some poster that posts dirty stories on the forums, or has cyber sex with the other users so put your pants back on.

The post whore is just a person who posts random crap as much as possible and really adds zero value to anything on the boards. They live ont he message board and likely post more than anyone else on the site. If there is a Top 10 for most posts this guy/girl will surely be in it. At least the picture poster actually gives us something to look at and maybe even a laugh. The post whore contributes nothing on most occasions with posts that include nothing more than a laughing emoticon, or even worse, just the abbreviation “LOL!” just so everyone knows that THEY read your post and think it is funny.

In a relatively loose community this user’s posts are followed by a post that says “Post Whore” 90% of the time. If you see this kind of poster you can use the term freely.

Here’s a nice little image you can use as well courtesy of My thoughts, ideas, and ramblings:

The banstick is where it is at for Moderators. This is what I like to hear when a moderator is getting upset. “Don’t make me break out the banstick.” Any moderator that uses this term is typically rather comical. We enjoy to watch the carnage that is someone getting banned from a message board. Not only because they typically have lost their minds and are going to post the most ridiculous things they can think of, but also because the moderators get so bent out of shape. A good moderator will let it go for a while just to get a laugh themselves. This is the guy that will say “Banstick” just so they can keep the fun rolling and still appease the other heartless moderators who want to jump on the ban button like the site admin is going to give them a medal for their efforts.

Moderators are the everyday posters that do the dirty work with the actual message board communities. They get the task of saying things to posters like: “Hey now. Let’s keep it clean here folks” and “Don’t make me ban you.” Moderators are typically control freaks. They want you to kiss their ass and they want to tell you what to do. They are sometimes on a mission to prove that they have great power on the internet and like to whip out the banstick as often as possible to satisfy their own sick and twisted urges.

Some boards even have Super Moderators, or Global Moderators. Regular Moderators are just able to moderate as few as one forum and typically are the vilest of all moderators. These guys are stuck in their own little world and have no power on other boards around the site. They have been groveling to the board Administrator and Super Mods for a long time and have finally reached their goal of minion (moderator). Their ultimate goal is to achieve Global/Super Moderator status. Then they can gain even more control.
Haphazardly moderating post on all boards for the entire site as well as a bigger Banstick. At this point they have likely achieved the highest prestige they will ever get in their life and seem to lay off a bit. They are now comfortable and have no one to compete with. They believe they are royalty and should be treated as such.

Be careful with moderators. The ones on a mission will look for the slightest reason to take out their life’s frustrations on you. One false post and you will get a “Warning”. Come back with another one and you could be headed straight to Bansville.

There are cool moderators out there though. These guys are probably posters you have a good report with so you can pretty much get away with anything on their boards. Even if someone reports you this guy will just delete it and never say a word to you about it. In fact this moderator kind of likes to “stir the pot” themselves and is a good source to get total morons banned from the boards.
