Collabology is a "special" form of terminology that Collablish speakers often use. The most common form manifests as the shortening of a homophobic slur being suffixed to a verb to insult another user performing that action. Collabology is a carryover from the 4chan raids that took place on CollabVM in its early days, which along with other factors warped the community into the toxic and uninhabitable mess it is now.

However, due to Collablish being as broken as it is, these insults typically only affect other Collablish speakers and usually do not bother the target.

Here are some common examples of Collabology:
