A Slight Change

terpkristin · 07-12-2003, 08:54 PM

Real Terps FC were pleased to unveil their new name today, though sorry to the supporters it upset. You may ask, "Why change?" Well, the real reason is that the team manager was lazy when she registered and didn't use capital letters and really wanted to. Also, she didn't want the word "the" in their name. Alas, the real terps are now Real Terps FC. We hope this explanation will suffice for keeping some of our loyal fans, see you in Season 20!!!

Edit: guess I need to change my signature now.

Edit 2: It's changed, guess now I need a new logo...any takers, maybe you, indoorsoccersim? Do all these edits count as a "dola"????

It's not a dola if it's an edit - only if you reply to yourself (consecutive postings in the same thread).

Dola.

Like this.

To be a true dola you must post multiple replies to your own thread without anyone responding. Alas, that is often forgotten by many newcomers.

Is that what dola means?

It was named in honor of Dolamite, who would always respond to his own threads a million times (so I've heard). This was before my time, but apparently someone coined the term "dola-posting" based off the practice.
