This information is accurate as of 10/29/2007. The nature of asmb is fluid and half this stuff will be useless tomorrow.
General asmb terms and stuff:
AD regular = someone that is usually known around here and frequents the AD a lot. cosign = agrees
fanart = its a picture drawn of a certain anime character and/or show not done by the original studio
fanboy/fangirl = usually someone that obsesses over a certain character, show, usually anything and will like sigh and stuff, sometimes even talking in "ZOMG!!!!!! TEH karaktr es lyk sew hawt lawl lky totateleh!!!!"
fanfic = a story written about a certain character and/or show, usually of the author's favorite.
picwars = when people go back and forth posting up pictures.
picwhoring = someone who posts up a lot of pictures.
screencap/screenshot = an image taken directly from an anime (or anything really but gotta keep it anime related)
spoilers = something that would ruin a story for someone who hasn’t seen it yet. (deaths are ALWAYS a spoiler regardless of how many times its been shown)
wax Nazi = used in the phrase "melt like wax Nazis" meaning the person(s) so described will melt and be destroyed by virtue of whatever coming into contact with them because they are evil and whatever is good. Just go watch Raiders of the Last Ark. Usage example: Dude if man-Faye came into contact with Orihime he would totally melt like a wax Nazi.
boss = totally pwnsome and awesome, totally dominating, all other examples tremble and retreat at that which is **boss**.
member's card = a card that someone makes in the members card thread found in .com folder if you want one feel free to ask.
troll = someone who posts or makes remarks in order to start a fight.
flaming = insulting.
lurking = just wondering around the boards, reading the messages, not really talking much.
ranking/rankage = it the color of your username (also the name underneath it, for instance when you first sign up you are called a "swim newbie" and your color is green) there is a thread in .com that tells you all the ranks and things that you gotta do to rank.
fangasm = its like when someone is so excited over something they practically 'gasm.
Fancoma = A fan has just experienced something so pwnsome and fullfilling that u practically go into a coma. Especially when ur favorite character that u fangirl/fanboy over does something u loooove. Fancombust = A fan has just experienced something so incredibly awesome and beyond awesomeness that they can spontaneously combust. Higher than fancoma.
Fanspasm = When a fan experiences something so awesome that they can have convulsions and temporarily lose control of themselves. Not as severe as fancoma or fancombusting.
FanCombust = the ultimate in fanning, its like.. youre so overwhelmed with fanning something that you just spontenously combust.
spam = (doesnt really stand for short pointless messages) its just endless annoying messages that i guess is named from the caned meat spam.
alt = a seperate account. Reasons for an alt: the main has been banned, either temporary or permament. then you have a couple of people, like CAC, who can have more than one account banned at a time. Sometimes it seems to be a person's whim, or then there's things like the danger squad, and the anti-danger squard, which seems to be a whim and a let's join the gang type of thing.
Wh0re = Suffix used for a board member who is overly obsessed with something. Ex. include spamwh0re, which is someone who spams a lot and, as you had said, picwh0re, spastic pic-poster. floated thread/ to float a thread = means a thread that is on the top of the folder (usually in a grayish color or something) you can choose to float a thread by going to thread options and selecting float this thread
Ban = to be suspended from asmb, can be for a set amount of time or permanent. Reasons for being banned: Personal stuff, like age, specific location of where you live, giving your email in a post. Risque pictures showing or suggesting s'exual acts. Sometimes it's hard to know whether if a pic goes over the line, which is what get most on the boards in trouble. It like a Supreme Court ruling in the '70's said about p0rn, I know it when I see it, but even they had a hard time legally defining it. So be careful posting, and when in doubt, don't, because it's going to be the mod who sees it who decides if it is. Talking about s'exual acts. Posting links to Risque and illegal download sites. Talking about illegal stuff and how to do it. Foul language, the filter gets most of that, though, filter dodging like s'ex and p0rn. Spamming a thread with a lot of off topic stuff.
Banstick = mythical object used by admins when banning users for a set time. i.e. to be hit by the banstick can also be used as a verb. Zeni got bansticked for trolling again.
Ban Hammer = see banstick
Bansturbation = mods that will ban themselves for their own twisted pleasures.
MANFAYE = Faye is the hottie from cowboy bebop. Manfaye is NOT the hottie from Cowboy Bebop. people who post manfaye pics when they are claiming to post hottie pics are being jerks, like me.
Bump = definition 1: the black screens with white lettering that are shown during [as] programing. i.e.
- Dear Adult swim,
Manning hogs the covers -Jingai

bherm = named after user on here named, bherm. usually means someone that has made a wierd non sensical theory that is really wierd and wild. actually, it stands for crazy crack pot theory, i came with so many, that i became the king of crack pot theories. but in time bherm became semi interchangable with the word theory. so then anything that would be a lil farfetched or "zomg wat did joo just say" or even just throwing out ideas became a bherm
+1 = refers to post count. You don't like the thread topic or poster or whatever, and don't feel like commenting so you just post +1, also damm,my pants have been stolen by the magical mexican faries
