The Lexicons posted over the years by batter have been quite informative and thorough; take your time, but 2017 looms :-)

Hi.
Eleven years ago.
Hope you are still here with us.

Batter left FR years ago and no one in particular took up the FReeper Lexicon/Freeper Lore update duties. Now that the Viking Kitties have been revived, I think I’ll update the FReeper Lore page with your blast from the past

To: All; y’all; et al; no one in particular; null and void
Pinging “all” does not ping all.

To: Danae
Then why do people ping to “All”?
*hangs head*
Blame me. When I created the “All” “Y’all” and “no one in particular” screen names, I intended them to be used to differentiate a post to a specific individual from one that invited everyone who saw that post to to read a general comment.
They exist to allow one to make a pointed comment not directed to a particular person, and as such have prevented zillions of hurt feelings and flame wars.
You have the distinction of being the first and only person to create a stink based on “all”.
Congratulations.
