vaugeposting

A misspelling of vagueposting that either wasn't caught before the post was submitted, or wasn't a big enough deal in the poster's eyes to warrant fixing it. Rarely done intentionally.

"Okay seriously why are some people so mean and cruel????

vagueposting

Making posts on social media that either

1. Give off a vague feeling of sadness or other emotional issues to prompt others into asking what's wrong and generally shower said poster with attention

2. Talk smack about someone without mentioning them

Two kinds of vagueposting you've probably seen before

1 .Person 1:"Just when you think you know people..."

Person 2: "Awwww is everything alright?"

Person 1: "I don't wanna talk about it"

2. Person: "Yeah you may have my man now but at least I didn't win him over with nudes lol bye bitch "

Everyone else reading the post: *thinking* We all know who you're talking about, girl

vagueposting

The act of indirectly posting about someone or something without directly mentioning them or it.

Person 1: I saw what you posted on X last night, that was kind of weird. Who was it about?

Person 2: Oh, I really wanted to say something about how Erin was acting last night, but I don't want to confront her, so I'm just vagueposting about it.

Person 1: Yeah... vaguepost maxxing.

vagueposting

A form of engagement bait on social media. A user will post a specific opinion complaint, opinion or reference, while intentionally omitting critical context needed to actually join the conversation.

The goal is to frustrate readers and bait them into begging for context, looking up nonexistent drama, or flood the comment section with reaction images.

OP: I can't believe they actually included that scene in the new season. That's disgusting.

User 1: and the vagueposting king award goes to...
User 2: be a bit more specific twin
User 3: context pls
