A zot is what happens when someone who effectively expresses an opinion contrary to that of some long time freeper who gets huffy and decides he/she wants the person who holds the contrarian opinion and is not convinced by the long-time freepers brilliant arguments to leave the site in a spectacular fashion.

Usually the “zot” is preceeded by the offending poster being called newbie, n00b, troll, etc. by the long-time freepers who have decided to get together and alert the mods that the troublesome poster is not agreeing with them.

Just setting the tone here, and doing the prep work. You know. It's all in a days pay.

Remind me again, what were we going to get you banned about?

It's almost break time, so please hurry. Thanks so much!
