Okay ... I can't stand it anymore.
I've been googling up stuff since I returned to the site. Simultaneously, I've done various internet searches on the subject of "message board etiquette " and "discussion board phrases" and "bulletin board repost acronyms" and a thousand other damn things and I give up. I can't find the answer. What the hell does "Q" stand for and why? I gather it means a re-post ... I mean, any moron can figure that out eventually. But, why the letter "Q"? FAX |

It started with calling out reposted material by replying 'Repost.' Then people started 'highlighting' reposts, by posting REPOST at the rate of one letter per post. R E P etc. Then when people got wise to the game, they would try to thwart it with random letters R E P - M - D O - R S T Then Q was settled on as the default REPOST interrupting letter. Then then entire thing was distilled down to Q meaning someone noticed a repost.

Started with dudes saying "repost" when a dupe thread was made. Evolved into the first person posting "r", second "e", third "p", etc.. someone would post a "q" instead of "t" to **** it all up.
And now we're left with just "Q" which means repost. |

God bless you, Mr. Baby Lee.
You have no idea how maddening that deal has been. I thought of "quadruplicities" "querulousnegation" and "quinquefariousness" but I never considered that. For a week or so, I thought I was going to have a stroke. May the vaginal juices of a thousand, blonde, blue-eyed virgins inundate your genitalia, my friend. FAX |

It was not a Q. It wasn’t in this thread.

Indubitably, Mr. ptylon.
And once you're out of the loop, you're better off accepting the fact you're likely to remain an iconoclastic, carpetbagging misfit forever. That's cool and all ... until you spend weeks away from other, more prosperous activities, trying to find every possible definition of words that begin with the letter "Q". Then it gets a little mingy on this side of the wall. FAX |

Sofa King also tried to add another layer by posting a picture of Judi Dench in her role as M in the James Bond movies, as if to purposely confuse her with Q.
I thought that was subtle comedy brilliance. I wish that would have caught on. |
