A situation when a user asks a question regarding a particular tool or solution and receives a lot of answers and comments on how other solutions work great, other tools provide a better experience, and the topic starter knows nothing about anything. The actual answer to the question is never provided.

Occasionally, you will encounter a forum/chat room with multiple staff types. One of these types are Drivers, which are kinda like semi-moderators, however they usually take it seriously 24/7, as they are desperate for promotion.
They are capable of using mutes and kicks and can announce messages. They are the ultimate assholes on the web. Exercise caution when approaching them.
Forum Drivers tend to act like this:
sueno21456: Flex your dongers! Flex your dongers!
sueno21456 was muted for 60 minutes by Voltaire
Fly60: Lol the drivers are back!!
Fly60 was muted for 7 minutes by Voltaire
I saw some other definitions about LD and policy, and they were old, so I made this so a newer debater can understand. I will assume you understand the rules and various jargon used obsessively throughout most of the debate community. Public forum, compared to other debate events, while not necessarily the best, should still be highly considered. Looking at other debate forms such at LD, policy, and congress, PF is the most fun. PF is like the "Goldilocks" event. LD is too boring (who would want to judge two roman-nosed high schoolers in suits talking about the values in life for and hour), policy requires too much time researching random and stupid arguments (penguins lead to nuclear war) or perfecting speaking speed, and congress is vague, lazy, difficult to become good at, and rounds are loud and you barely get to speak. Public forum also looks good on applications, teaches you to debate lay a lot better (which definitely helps you a lot more in later parts of your life), and is probably the most "easiest to learn, hardest to master" type of debate. Give it a try.
"I'll never quit public forum. Screw policy."
"Ugh...this congress round will never end."
"Who tf cares about principles and values in life?"
The absolute best forum ever, we talk about ASDFism and ASDFology.
Each day new discoveries are made...
Welcome on the ASDF forums, ASDF will take care of you from now on...

A collection of many posts in multiple threads in a forum meant to either destroy the quality of a forum, bump pointless threads or increase the forum bomber's post count.
Alan's really going to have to make a bunch of forum bombs to have any hope of matching the 7000 posts Gonzo has made.

A small group who participate in vote-rigging in online forums and frequently use multiple accounts to do so, often usurping the role of an official moderator.
