What Does "OP" Stand For?​

"OP" stands for "original poster" or "original post." While both of these terms are widely used on message boards and internet forums, they mean different things.

The original poster is the person who starts a discussion thread, forum topic, or Reddit post. They often kick-start a conversation or ask a question. If they're asking for advice about a specific situation, they reply to the comments or messages in that thread. When other people refer to the person who started the thread, they type "OP" instead of their username.
The "original post" is the first one visible when you open the thread made by the original poster.
