Guide to Scratch Forums/ Website Lingo

When you are a new user to Scratch, you may run into words that are somewhat unique to scratch or have a different definintion/ use. I think we need to compile a guide to these sorts of words.

Re: Guide to Scratch Forums/ Website Lingo

I thought that NINJA'D meant if someone posted something but someone had already posted it while they were typing their post.

E.g:

Person1: How do I make a script? (07:00)
Person2: You just have to drag the blocks from the block section (07:02)
Person3: Drag the blocks from blocks sections (07:02)
Person3: Aw, got NINJA'D while I was typing my post (07:03)
Person4: Person3 got NINJA'D, person2 NINJA'D person3. (07:05)

But I might be wrong.

"When posting on a forum, you submit a post only to find that someone has posted the same thing only seconds earlier."


Also, I think LOL (Laughing out loud) and ROFL (Rolling on floor laughing) need to be added, they are quite common ones.

This is a cool idea.

Caps Abuser: someone who excessively uses capitals (I.E. HOW DO I MAKE A MOVING SCRIPT??? TELL ME NAO!!!)

But I didn't know what they stand for until someone commented that on my project and I asked him/her what they mean.

By the way,
lol = laughing out loud
ROFL = rolling on the floor laughing

No, NINJA'D means when someone uses a ninja like move on you. NINJAing someone is difficult as there aren't many ninja forum moves. Example:
[Comment String on a project]

DancingBanana:First comment!
NinjaMaster(exploiting a glitch):First Comment!(this automatically pops up when DB makes his comment)
Dancing Banana:Argh, I got NINJA'D!

What you mentioned was outposting. But anyway, here's my list of words:
Front Page'd:You just got on the front page
Postcount Increaser:People who post just to get a high post count
60 second rule:Annoying rule that protects against trolls.
Trolls:A near extinct species of internet user(at least on Scratch)
Add Me to your siggy!:If you ad the requested to your siggy, he/she/it will rule the world.

Error:Signature could not load. Please wait for an indefinite amount of time, until you realize you're gullible and go off to look for another potentially interesting signature to stare at.

Re: Guide to Scratch Forums/ Website Lingo

To troll is more of to start an argument to see people's reactions, not really to be mean for no reason.
