Seriously what's a BM? Been searching here and on the net and have not found an explanation
In this thread Seanbeag7 says that BM means "board member"
But I thought it was _ monger (what's the missing word)?And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. - Friedrich Nietzsche

All BM's are (or can be) mongers, not all mongers are BM's.
BM stands for Board Member, i.e. anyone who has registered on the forum.
A monger is someone who shares a specific interest, in this case LB's.
There is no missing word, unless you are thinking of a fishmonger...Despite the high cost of living, it continues to be popular.

I thought BM was bowel movement.
As for necro, that means dead. You know, as in necromancer; one who communes with the spirits of the dead. Or of you wanna get really gross, necrophilia; the sexual attraction to corpses. Hey, someone asked.
So I guess, a necro poster, would be someone who responds to a long dead post.
WTF, I'm bored.

...There is no missing word, unless you are thinking of a fishmonger... ...
If that's up your alley, so to speak.
