To go into a discussion forum with the sole purpose of sending an derogatory but entirely truthful personal message to the owner, then posting a copy on the forum itself for all members to see. Especially refers to the owner of a website affectionately known as Woodchuck Underground.

Generally doing this will cause the person who is gleaning to be lerkfished.
I really had to gleaner that guy after he banned all the progressive members from his website.
