A Coot, a Cooter, a little bird, ...etc, etc.

To be clear, I was able to deduce the meaning
Sep 28, 2022, 1:20 PM

from the context.
But the etymology (ya like that? I'm using words gamecocks don't understand) ... where does it come from? Is it an acronym? If it's not, why THAT particular word?
God knows I don't wanna be a scok

Been wondering this myself... I'm guessing it's when one individual creates multiple profiles and makes it appear multiple people are having an online conversation when its really just the same person. How the word "scok" is derived from this, I don't know.

mispelled for Tigernet makes perfect sense.

i thought it was misspelled to imply that it was a gamecock's sock puppet. ####+sock = scok.

Scok is the word used on TNet...
Sep 28, 2022, 1:27 PM
|
|
that refers to another/alternate handle or username that someone sets-up to use for the purpose of supporting the poster's thread/ideas/etc.

Here’s my guess. It’s an amalgamation of SC (South Carolina) and ####. Sounds reasonable?

It does sound reasonable.

But reasonable and TNet posters rarely go together.

Naw. I was confessing
Sep 28, 2022, 3:39 PM
|
|
as in I have the courage to admit that I didn't know things I was expected to know.
To profess would suggest that I'm proud of it
