Fezzidise - a combination of Troll, Patriotism, and Spam effects all rolled into one powerful spell. Casting this spell however will cause severe losses of prestige and charisma.

Donny's Dastardly Dicktification - Turns a thread into a circle-jerk, with much "lolling" and "rolleyesing" for all involved.

Emma's Eminent Emasculation - A given picture thread is hijacked by pictures that are inappropriate for that particular thread topic. Example: Pictures of men and/or fat chicks in a Babes Thread, or pictures of corpses in a War Machines thread. Often leads to much circle-jerking on the part of the offending parties, with many rolleyes always directed at the legitimate thread participants ("Clearly the legitimate participants of this thread are sexist since they are not posting pictures of fat chicks ").

Assclown's Arbitrary Aptitude - Poster claims expertise in a given field, despite having the equivalent knowledge of any given 12-year-old in said field (note: poster might actually be 12 years old). Generally involves much plaigarizing of Nietzsche, Rand, Marx, or any other oft-quoted philosopher/economist, with the false implication that said ass-clown actually understands said philosopher/economist.

Odin's Onerous One-Trick-Ponyism - Poster beats a horse to death, and continues beating said dead horse long into its slow descent into rigor mortis and eventual rot. Often involves turning the dead horse into a scapegoat for all of the poster's problems in life, from said poster's impotence ("It's France's fault that my genitals do not function") to said poster's general ineptitude ("It's America's fault that I'm a lazy bastard").

Obfuscation - Poster responds to a post by cutting it into tiny bits and comment on each one, most often sentence by sentence. The net effect is the poster avoids the main thrust of the argument while picking on minor and often irrelevent issues.

Vlad's Voluminous Vomitorium - Poster infects a thread, a set of threads, or an entire forum with his/her insane and inane alcoholic babbling.

Translation: It is a distress signal to notify the nearest allied high-level mage (aka moderators) that the distressee has been attacked with Vlad's Voluminous Vomitorium spell and is in desperate need of a healing spell. Often, such spells are found on the island of Mingapulco. High-level mages can use the Teleport spell to send the afflicted to the island for the necessary time to heal.

DrSpike, no comment on the meta-spam spell?

meta-spam

An extremely difficult spell to cast, such that only experiences mages such as BC should attempt it. This spell retains the basic characteristic of spam , but conceals itself as a serious comment.

If the spell is cast by low level mages (or mages with low levels of charisma), it is often indistinguishable from spam and due to its nature far more likely to lead to Ming's magnificent mansion being cast on the poster.

self-Exile: caster is sent out of forum by his/her own volition. General duration is variable, but has only a 25% chance of taking permanent hold.

Cut & paste: Magically transfers huge amounts of characters from other sources, increasing defense+3, as caster can now sit behind a huge shield of words to deflect attacks.

Troll rating: Spell with very low mana cost: aimed at reducing charisma of opponent -1. can backfire, if caster misjudges the denominator to be used, thus damaging their own charisma.

actually Spiff:

Off topic Forum: A dangerous dimension that wary posters should avoid. Significant damage to "real life" points, and a strong set of terrible monsters inhabit this realm. Heavy use of Magic is needed, since brute strenght (Reason and facts) easily fail against most monsters there.

Democracy game forums: Dimension in which posters are forced to work together to defeat great enemies from beyond. The stress of common purpose on naturally fractious beings can lead to terrible internal battles. Not for the weak of heart.
