Charity Replies

When on an online dating site or app, Charity Replies are when you start chatting with someone who otherwise does not find you attractive, but for some reason continues to reply feeling some sort of obligation. This usually results in ghosting or the friendly fade.
I was talking to this guy on POF. He obviously had no interest in me and was just giving me charity replies cause they were always just one word answers and he wouldn't reply for hours at a time. I can see when he's been online! Then one day he just kind of vanished...

reply trap

A trap used on social media to lure people into replying to the post. Usually stating that something has happened to the person posting, but does not state what. This causes curious readers to ask what happened to him/her. These statement are usually exaggerated and are used as a cry for attention.
Person 1: This girl just posted "UGH THE WORST THING JUST HAPPENED I HATE MY LIFE!" on Facebook
Person 2: Such a reply trap

selective replying

When those annoying girls on snap choose what to reply to and just leave you on open for 48 hours otherwise
You: Bro why does she leave me on opened sometimes but sometimes she wants to reply

Bro: Honestly she’s just selective replying at this point.

Reply Gal

Someone regardless of actual gender who misappropriates the term "reply guy" to otherwise respectful social media comments and unjustly makes someone out to be a douche-nozzle when they were really just partaking in a discussion prompted by the "Reply Gal". Reply Gals are hypocritical in the fact that they blame others for replying to a comment and instead of blocking a person they don't want to converse with make it a point to ridicule them through a reply of their own and applying other made up mockeries such as calling them "sea-lions" or "JAQass", using a response of genuine confusion as justification to further their cyber-bullying and take out misplaced anger on some innocent netizen instead of actual douche-nozzles.
I'm sorry if you're upset, but my friend's comment was not a personal attack, just a political question based on your political post so why are you being such a Reply Gal towards him?

reply-all pollution

The effect achieved when people unnecessarily reply-all to an email that only required a standard reply, unnecessarily filling everyone's inbox with unneeded crap.
There goes Jim again, constantly creating reply-all pollution. I wish he realized there are 100 other people on this email chain who don't care!

The reply-all pollution on this team is suffocating!
