I looked for a Zot explanation but couldn't find one. Basically, when some new lefty/terrorist supporter (troll)comes on here & starts posting anti-Conservative/anti-American stuff, instead of killing the post, they replace some of the words in the title with "Zot" and ban the person so that the thread doesn't go away. It's also the word used to call attention to a troll in posts. People still get flamed for making lame comments, but deserving to be flamed doesn't necessarily rise to the level of being Zotted. Does that help?

See post 69 for Zot!

But please don't ask me to explain the whole Viking Kitten thing. :)

Thaks for the reply. I also got a much longer one from an administrator with background and info on the origination of the term..

I'm not sure the information posted was worthy of a zot, however. It appeared to be a well-researched item for the moderate interpretation of Islam's relationship to other religions.
