Ok, I confess ignorance. Exactly what is a "scok"?


Sep 28, 2022, 1:08 PM

other than being a god awful looking (and probably sounding) non word?

Come on man!

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

Something, no matter what word describes that the Tigers dominate year after year.

Go Tigers!!!!!!

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

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

This might help...

Why do dogs always race to the door when the doorbell rings? It's almost never for them.

It’s an old Cherokee word for “Imaginary Friend”

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.

“Sock Puppet”

Short, sweet, mispeled, just for Tnet.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Thank you


Sep 28, 2022, 1:21 PM

mispelled for Tigernet makes perfect sense.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Take that with a grade of slaw.***

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

Sep 28, 2022, 1:22 PM

No time for that. I'm too busy asking questions about what it is

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

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.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

I've always assumed this, but never mentioned it.

Re: Ok, I confess ignorance. Exactly what is a "scok"?


Sep 28, 2022, 1:28 PM

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

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It does sound reasonable.


Sep 28, 2022, 1:35 PM

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
