On December 31st, 2003, Urban Dictionary user Joe submitted the first entry for the term “OP,” defining it as a common abbreviation used on message boards and forums. The abbreviation OP for “original poster” has been used since the mid 1990s in newsgroup discussions on Usenet.
'OP is a Faggot' is an insult directed towards the original poster (OP) of a thread on image boards or discussion forums, which can be also presented in the form of image macros and animated GIFs.
