Chinese host

A derogatory term for someone who is hosting an online game with slow internet. It comes from the idea that there are so many Chinese gamers they hack Western servers and when they play there they lag heavily because of the distance.

Gamer 1: Omfg this game is actually lagging every second.
Gamer 2: Yeah me too but I only have 40 ms.
Gamer 1: It's because of the fucking Chinese host.

Host ghost

A specific type of ghost in a chatroom or other communication service who appears yet present, while in fact already gone, as a result or side effect of a host error. Many services offer a command to erase them from the list of people present as well as other type of ghosts, such as NickServ's /ns ghost.

I have spent a few minutes to write a private message to a host ghost until I realized they have disconnected before I began.

poke-a-host

Your civic and immoral responsibility to poke, prode, bugger, sodomize, or otherwise stimulate your host at a soiree, cock-tail party, gang bang, or orgy. Similar to a pin-a-tale on a donkey, poke-a-host is for the entertainment and enrichment of the host. In host credit or exchanges only,

James hosted a gang bang -- and before leaving Gary, Chris and the pizza delivery boy all had to poke-a-host to show their deepest gratitude.

Host Advantage

When a host has zero lag due to him hosting the games whilst others have to deal the constant lag, thus making them an easy target for the host.
