"Kudos and Respect"
"Kisses and Regards"
"Kowtows and Reverence"
"Knowledge and Reason" ..um..I'm not really close, am I?

9. I thought only the high priests could do that.
To 'kick' is to post to a thread in order to make it rise to the top (most recent) of a forum page.

'Recommend' is to click on the "Recommend Topic for Greatest Page" choice at the bottom of an original post "OP".

Tactics of fanatic enthusiasts.

15. Shh! You're in violation of Rule 155 s.17!
"there will be NO mention of the sparrow without your district commander's approval"

13. Here's my answer:
"Kicked" means that you responded to a post, which pushes it back up to the top of the list. That gives more people an opportunity to see it.
"Recommended" means that you have recommended the thread for the "greatest" page, which gains the post even more exposure.
