thread killer

1. Someone who makes the last post in a forum thread.

2. A mod who is known for killing threads when they get off topic.

3. A person in a forum that is notorious for getting threads locked by the mods.

1. Nobody knows how to respond to bashturn's brilliant stupidity, so he is often a thread killer.

2. JPKeates usually explains why a thread must end with a great last post. He is a very accomplished thread killer.

3. CJ and Dug are thread killers, six threads got locked today because of their off topic ramblings.

thread-shitting

Posting off topic messages to a discussion forum. Usually, but not always, with purposeful intent to derail the discussion.

Example post for thread-shitting:

"I just ate a huge bean burrito for lunch! There really wasn't enough cheese in it, but the extra Pico made up for it. It was quite satisfying."

Thread Jacking

Taking over a thread on a message board by taking a part of the original posted topic, twisting it around and "hijacking" the thread itself. What happens is that the original content contained in the post becomes moot and whatever the "Thread Jacker" has manipulated the content to be becomes the new content thereby "hijacking" the original intent of post. People now respond to the "thread jacker's" input and the that becomes the focus of the tread.

LK25 did an excellent job of thread jacking Koko's post on Dennis Landolt.

Koko's posted topic on Dennis Landolt (PSU Football player) and comments regarding his development on Penn States FOS site becomes indictment of whole offensive line:

KokobewareHI: "Why do I feel like this thread is about to get hijacked? What happened to my original question?"

PSUnittany: "LK25, the thread was about Landolt & his progress...and (of course) you spin it into another "the staff is lazy at recruiting - we are doomed!" threads...It's so tiresome. Please link me to any threads that you don't hijack & ruin. Thank you."

OCCalif: "Although LK25 has jacked this thread to a degree, I feel his concerns are somewhat valid- we should be concerned about our offensive line."

Thread abuse

When you have several email threads on different subjects going with the same person and your correspondent replies in one thread to a question dealt with in another. Thread abuse makes is impossible to follow an email conversation.

Alice just rsvp'd to my party replying to my minutes from our weekly meeting. Oh man that is total thread abuse
