Pardon My Ignorance, but what does vanity mean?
09/07/04 | Novel

Posted on 09/07/2004 10:38:16 AM PDT by Novel

Sorry for the stupid question, but I see the words Vanity and Zot on some of the posts, and I have no idea what they mean. Can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks

Vanity means posting a new thread when a simple question on an existing one would suffice. [hint]

a 'vanity' means you buy the first round for everyone who responds to your post.

A Zot is often used on a vanity when the writer is a looser who nobody takes series.

Vanity = You are not posting an article from a news source.

Posting a thread without a source for the source box. Self-generated essays are considered a vanity. Requests for help, prayers, etc.

Try this link. It may have some of the answers you're looking for, although Zot is not on there.

To which Novel replies, "What is a question?"
