What "OP" Stands For? by PapateeOfLife(m): 5:00pm On Dec 27, 2013
It has become a common trend on nairaland for most users to inevitably make use of the word "OP" while adding any comment.
For those of us that are interested in flowing in the direction of the world(nairaland), OP simply means Original Poster.
Be sure to know the appropriate time and place to use such word.

One thing in NL is that once a person devise a trend, others just follow whether right or wrong. I used to think it means what second poster said. If not the correction I would've said thanks OP. But thanks for the correction, we learn everyday.

Mr ITK every forum has its own language. For nairaland OP means original poster. So don't try to confuse us with what u do not know.

Op has different meanings; observation post, original poster, out of print, open pollination,etc...

According to wikipedia, observation post is "a position from which soldiers can watch enemy movement", while ORIGINAL POSTER is "the one making a post on a forum"...

So, i think op as in "observation post" is not τ̲̅ђe correct meaning of "op" dat is/should be used on NL, bt op as in "original poster".

PapateeOfLife: NL is not a notice board, which poster are you posting?
mind you, no one here has MR ITK for a username.
check any platform, even beyond the e-platform, OP universaly means OBSERVATION POST.

can u tell us what lol, lwkmd, rofl, ttyl..... mean universally, out of e-forum?
