[WikiEN-l] Checkuser for fun, for profit, for mild curiosity, for sharing, for whatever

[FT2]

It's a US term meaning roughly the same as "put up or shut up" in Europe.

It means, provide something substantial and specific;  if one can't then
don't try making vague allusions to grand malfeasance claims that are high
on dramatic impact and low on hard facts.

Say something solid, or don't bother with smoke.

That's the rough meaning.


FT2.

Forgive my obtuseness once more...

Explain the analogy to me.  I've not heard this one before.


Thanks in advance,
