Back in the dark old days of Bw there was a user who posted links that other people had posted not long before. This was done, I assume, to 'take the piss' or generally piss off the regular users. I'm not too sure, he was before my time. After him there was 'I_AM_GLEN' who was much the same, he posted links to famous sites (nearest example would be someone posting a link to the penguin game saying it was a new link) coupled with that was the fact that his writing (Spelling etc) was so bad it took most people (Well ok, me) quite a while to figure out what he was saying. Rumours were that it was a regular being a tosser, most popular accusation was that it was scooba.

Rather ironically, this conversation itself is a glen due to it being asked somewhere on this page (the threads underneath). :D

Technically, a "glen" is something posted on the same forum before, and fairly recently. So, technically, the original link is not a "glen", although it might be considered such as it was posted on BW way way back.

Often "glen" is basically used as "you mean you haven't seen that yet even though it's been around for ages you sad twat", regardless of whether it actually appeared on FH. This is incorrect, the fact _you_ might have seen something before on another forum does not make it a "glen".

There is no term for something not posted before, but still everyone has seen as it is ages old, we could called those "tohtori's" if you like :)

I'm pretty sure that's been posted here, granted it was called glen that time too. :)

My own germ? Oooh...yes! From now on, if something is posted and it is old
, even if not glen, then it shall be called a tohtori :p

Actually tohtori is finnish for doctor, so we could just call it Doc. Anyway, thanks for the overly much info guys :p

Can we have a sticky explaining the term "glen" please. This way we won't have the same muppets explaining the same thing over and over again. I'm thinking of the muppets here. Henson would be proud.

The first time or the second ?

I'm impressed by your subtle yet quick witted reply.

Should I make myself clearer ?

So what is it?

I've never seen one before, no-one has, but I'm guessing it's a Glen Post.

A Glen Post ?
