I am afraid I am too new to know myself, ZOT, BUMP, PING

Some daffynitions on the above:

ZOT = Zero On Thread - Offender will soon be removed.

BUMP = Big Unilateral Manipulation of a Post = Someone is so impressed with a thread that if they just reply with a "BUMP" it means that this thread goes back to the top of the Queue on the respective page where it was originally found, i.e. "Breaking News" "Chat" etc.

PING = Pretty Interesting Needs Groupies - The poster has a list of friends in his group that he wishes to alert to an interesting thread. When he "Pings" them they get a notification to join in the discussion of the "Pinged" thread.

Hope this helps.

Unless the person bumping up the thread is the thread creator, in which case it means "Bumping Up My Post."

;)
