C4 whore
A player in an online multilayer game who uses C4 or other explosives to repeatedly mine a spawn point and detonate it as soon as players spawn. This is seen by many as being a way for people with little skill playing a game to get a high kill count. It is seen as "whoring" because it takes no skill to do, yet you get rewarded for it.
Not all players who mine spawn points with explosives are C4 whores. A C4 whore uses spawn point mining as their primary method of getting kills and avoids trying to kill other players with their other weapons. They will often do it to the point where large numbers of players will leave the server in disgust.
Some game servers, to combat this, make ammo crates not give out C4. The result is that a player only has the C4 that they spawn with. Limiting the damage a C4 whore can do.

Skycrane
Technicly refered to as the CH-54. The Skycrane gets it's name from it's unique disign. It's body shape allows it to land over a payload, pick it up, and then set it down where needed. Much like a regular crane.
It was designed by the famous helicopter pioneer Igor Sikorsky who was looking to produce a new class of heavy lift hellicopter. The CH-54 is also widly known as the Sikorsky Skycrane, either term is correct. Sadly CH-54's dispite many years of good service are facing planned obsolescence due to the lack of replacement parts.
The aircraft company Erickson bought the rights to the Skycrane in 1992 and now produce their own version, the S-64, and renamed it the Aircrane. Erickson also discontinued production of replacement parts for the CH-54. Sadly, aircraft that have flown since the 1970's are being grounded due to lack of spare parts.
