I swear to god if this is another attention whore I'm going to devote 100% of my posts to black knighting.

Now would be a good time to define and differentiate White and Black Knighting.

Now would be a good time to define and differentiate White and Black Knighting.

White Knighting refers to the misguided online defense of attention whores, all under the pretense of supposed compassion for some sort of benefit. Generally, this action occurs on websites like DeviantArt, Stickam, YouTube, and other places which foster self-proclaimed Internet Celebrities, who are protected by people that seek some sort of benefit in return- be it secondhand popularity, sex, or just attention. This invariably results in making the defended look even stupider, making the defender look pitiful, and making the entire situation one big clusterfuck of fail/lulz.

Boiled down to simple terms, white knighting is when some idiot protects some other idiot on the internet, presuming doing so will make them look better or doing so will bequeath them some benefits. The most stereotypical form of White Knighting is some basement-dwelling nerd on a popular social networking/camwhore site like Stickam, DevianTART or Facebook protecting some popular girl he has a crush on in order to possibly win her favor, and thus get her to fuck him. This can also apply in a lesser sense to random users on various message boards who defend other members of the board (generally higher ranking members with higher post counts or those with moderatorships) to look "cool" or "in the know".

black knighting
An individual embracing trolling and ad hominem attacks on a messageboard, focused upon a single hapless poster. This is regardless of the topic of conversation and how correct the poster is. The natural converse to white knighting

Example:
Poster A: Hi im new!

Black Knight: GO

FUCK

YOURSELF

Basically they[white knights] are the stupid shits that feed attention whores. Leg humper is a synonym. Here, you see it a lot in any thread started by a female poster, or anywhere else they post.
