Milk for the TET Flakes!

coalposters are hopeless summies. the worst of the worst. they never strive for thought, or to better themself. its been around for awhile i think, it definitely existed on Cliches 2.

it can also be used to refer to old summies, but i prefer the term peatposter for that now, cus i think its reference to zombie fires is fitting.

coalposter is probably the loosest definition of any currently coined term.

Ok, I have to ask because it seems to me that you are interpreting the term “summie” way differently than the term I know.

The Summie title is given to those posters who join on the summer school break. They tend to be young, and is prone to spam. What exactly is a summie to you?

Anyone else is welcome to answer this.

in the words of reva-


"A summie is someone who:
1. Does not have extensive and/or unique enough (that is to say, does not consist of a high enough portion of their own writing) lore.
2. Resides nearly exclusively in game or fluff threads, and cannot muster a high-effort answer to save their life on the rare occasions they go to a lore or lore-adjacent thread.
An example of what I consider to be the borderline for 1 would be Owonyaania (in terms of extensiveness). It should also be noted that expansions of existing published work count as unique, as well as alt-timeline/future IRL nations... to a point (WashCo is unique, Grandocantorica is not).

Because many F7 pillars surpass 1 but not 2 (WashCo, Simonia, Libriano, etc), the primary mechanism of Mors Aestatis is the revival of lore threads, eventually filling F7, that will compel them to effortpost."

this is what i, and id say most others on F7, would mostly see a summie as.

A Quick And Comprehensive List Of Summie Genres That’s Probably Wrong
- Summies: the base standard for all following. Single sentence or shorter posts with very basic and little thought behind them. Examples: the usual summer wave.
- Coalposters: Rock bottom summies. Single word posts, rarely more, with no hope to ever redeem themselves in the eyes of the community. See Unmet.
- Peatposters: Older summies, usually around a year or older. Similar post quality to their younger brethren, just a prolonged version. There aren’t many that come to mind, but possible TGEG and others.
- Fungusposters: I’m actually not quite sure myself.

I sorta knew it. This is a subcategory of the term, part of your community culture. NSG just sees it as my original statement. Thanks for clarifying. The F7 I interacted in years ago cannot be any more different than today’s.

tgeg is a peatposter.

fungusposters is basically a nonsense word. i forget who purposed it, but i think it was cypt who shot it down? i forget. it was a synonym to coal posters though.


another other important term would be


Old Guard: refers to the group of players that took place in Val Z's 2020 factbook contest, and are still active. they are seen as pillars of the effortposting community, and are generally most active on lore threads and cliches. examples would be, Sauce and HFoS.

i haven't heard anyone refer to the old guard in a bit though, not since the death of Reva and the emergence of SarSic.

I don’t know. I find the term fungusposter hilarious. But maybe that’s because I was obsessed with a character called Fungapuss.

You know im trying to basically become an old gaurd. Is it going to happen, probably not. But my lore is getting better and ive been bumbing up the effort in my posts. So I can dream.

Also I would like to say sorry for being incredibly annoying earlier.

I haven't used Old Guard in that sense ever. I used it to refer to people who generally took it upon themselves as some of moral crusade to personally vanquish and attack every single summie. There's probably different meanings, but I found that to be a common characteristic of those who I considered the Old Guard.

Albeit rarely, when I do use the term, I use it in a similar sense. The distinction is mostly negligible, anyway, I find, given the over-lap between the two respective clusters included within each definition.

Yeah but old guard sounds way cooler than effortposter, so i'll just use that.

i don't consider myself a effortposter or a member of the old guard, it all takes a very long long time. your heart is in the right place though now i suppose. and don't stress it.

whenever i like to point fun at our moral hypocrisy, i just say cliche-posters. but that's dumb. ill try to think of a better term sometime.

Hm. I wonder where I'd be on that. Probably peat or summie ig?

Anyway, TET. How are you all? I'm back to reading my book again... and brainstorming stupid cat names. And trying to figure out what my psychiatrist meant when he said the things he said.
