Turkey-Baconed -
1. To derail an online blog or forum thread that was started to incite others
2. To so utterly confuse an online "troll" or spammer
they give up
Turkey-Baconed (with the above definitions) is a phrase originally coined in the
PS3 section of the AVS Forum. It is used to derail internet threads or blogs on forums. Highly effective in ruining a troll's intentional baiting. (an internet troll is someone who posts to blogs or forums intending to start arguements). An example of being Turkey-Baconed can be found here
War Bond Lighters and World
War II Lighters. Now in this example a spammer attempted to just spam as many forums as possible and if you peruse that thread you will see from the very beginning it was derailed. Hence it was Turkey-Baconed. Now in this next example, Sony to post $1.1 billion loss, this was started by a troll. In this
case the troll would be an XBox owner trying to incite a console flame
war. It is highly common in the gaming world for fans of different platforms to have highly "spirited" disagreements. As you can see in both examples
humor plays a
major part in Turkey-Baconing. Along with witty
banter, inane comments, and the occasional risque photo. So remember boys and
girls instead of argueing in forums and blogs just Turkey-
Bacon them.
