Title Change Suggestion
Not everything that is in here (or needs to be in here) is an abbreviation or acronym. Suggest title change to "Abbreviations and forum jargon", or something similar. --Winelight 07:36, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

BlingBot
Added 'blingbot' (another variation of chromebot). This nickname is derived from the first line of the description. --WyndStryke 18:15, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- Reverted that edit. First, it's not an abbreviation or acronym. Second, I did a thorough Google search and that term is virtually NEVER used. In fact, I can only turn up two instances, once in April and once in August. But the first point makes my second moot. -- B.Rossow talkcontr 18:56, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- Strange that Google shows up so few instances, because I have referred to it as the "blingbot" myself on several occasions in the forum. And as for your first point, it rather misses the purpose of this page, which is to provide users with the full name for terms they might see used in the forum. The fact that it is neither an abbreviation nor an acronym merely reveals a deficiency in the page title - I don't see the value in deliberately concealing helpful information from users just because it doesn't fit what someone once titled the page. --Winelight 22:15, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
