Serverbait

A form of psychological manipulation on Discord servers and internet communities designed to provoke a targeted user into emotional reactions, mental distress, or behaviors that lead to banning—either from the specific server/community or from the entire platform. Serverbaiting involves carefully crafted messages, images, or interactions intended to trigger trauma responses, exploit known vulnerabilities, or push a user past their breaking point. The baiter studies their target, learns their triggers, and systematically applies pressure until the target snaps—saying something they shouldn't, reacting violently, or breaking down publicly. The goal is destruction: of mental health, of reputation, of community standing. Serverbait is the digital equivalent of psychological warfare, waged in Discord channels and comment sections by people who have learned that causing pain is entertaining.
Serverbait Example: "He'd been serverbaited for weeks—subtle digs at his trauma, mentions of his ex, images designed to trigger. Finally, he snapped, screaming in chat, and was banned instantly. The baiters celebrated; they'd achieved their goal. The server was 'clean' of a 'problem user,' and they'd had fun doing it. No one asked why he'd become a problem in the first place."
An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)
"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.
