CC Slang

"Stop trolling" / "He was guested for flaming" / "All that dude ever does is farm noobs" / "gg" / "gl" / "rt" / "You should really get clickies"

When i first came to CC about a year ago, i was so confused when i went into a game and seen people putting double g's down after they took me off the maps, and visiting the forums was not much clearer as there were so many CC slang words that i did not understand... after being here a while now, i am starting to get a lot of it down, but there is still a lot of CC slang that I don't understand.

I am not sure if there is a thread on this already, if so please post it for me and i can let this thread drop to the bottom, but i really want to dedicate a thread to nothing but clarifying what all of this CC slang really means. Below I will start a list of slang words I can remember seeing, some I know the meanings and some i may not, please post below the meanings of these words so that we can all understand what all the CC talk is about!

Trolling = posting a thread or post with the purpose of getting other people aggravated. It is an attempt to cause interwebs drama.

Flaming = basically insulting another person.

Baiting= similar to trolling, but it is specifically targeted to a single person.

Farming = targeting new recruits for point gain.

gg = Good game

gl = Good luck

rt = Real time game - playing a normal "non-speed" game at a fast pace

clickies= An add on that allows you to click on the maps to move your troops around

guested= being banned for a period of time or terminated from CC.


"what does gg mean?" by banana2 on Thu Jul 08, 2010 7:53 pm

****as natty pointed out, some of these terms are used in other online games as well, but as for people like myself, the only online game i have ever actually played and have been interactive in is CC, so a thread like this will help those like myself and just like the post above, some people don't even know what gg means!****

Trolling, Flaming & Baiting aren't exactly CC slang, they're generic interwebs slang.

Trolling means posting a thread or post with the purpose of getting other people aggravated. It is an attempt to cause interwebs drama.

Baiting is similar, but it is specifically targeted to a single person.

Flaming is basically insulting another person.

Farming is also a term used in many online games. The meaning can vary slightly site-to-site but in CC it means targeting new recruits for point gain.

be proud that you don't know this geek talk griff. this is the only interactive site i visit also, and i'm not that interactive. i must admit to understanding 'imo' in my opinion and 'tbh' to be honest. the shame!

and i'm sure you're quite accustomed to the slang i use mate ;)

"F*cking gay dice!" - My intensity cubes are producing numbers that have a below-par and sub-standard strength in the context of the game. Contrary to popular belief, this has nothing to do with the random intensity cubes engaging in explicit homosexual acts.

the black jebus has spoken and this thread still has not been moved / locked or merged. To bad you weren't the real Jesus, you might actually post something that mattered :roll:

-griff has spoken.

just let this drop...

i had to click that little tab to see the inane banter you had posted within this thread... thank myself for the foe list, amen!!! again, there is a very comprehensive list endorsed by CC and it's admins that is far older and pretty damn close to having everything possible on it. but hey, if you think this list is far better and not clogging/spamming up the forum with a repeat thread, then more power to you. the black jesus can't offer salvation to all of his children... the list already exists, this is a repeat there, under CC's own forum rules it should be locked and or moved... the black jesus has spoken...-the black jesus
