So much anger! panic
Also, the pedantic attitude of the OP. I wouldn't even mind it if she had a valuable piece of information to share, but she doesn't.

It is specifically because people (including myself) were incorrectly referring to magazines in the Zombie thread as clips. Seems hypocritical that people who pretend to know a lot about guns, call magazines clips, eh? (That was really her point. She could have said it in the thread, but she wanted to make it a point of focus rather than have it be overlooked.)

That's all fine and dandy, but she should've posted it in the thread then, or at least indicate in the OP that this thread was made in reference to said discussion in the zombie thread. Dammit.

That much was obvious. The majority of those posting in this thread were aware that this was in reference to that.
Edit- And this is far from the first time that a thread was made that had "inside" meaning or reference.
Besides, she wanted everyone to know this, not just those in the thread. Like it or not, the next time you ever speak about a clip or a magazine, you will probably remember this thread and call it properly. Video games, movies, etc. Whatever you're talking about, she may have just saved you from looking ignorant.
Now, that doesn't change the fact that I still called them clips when I was aware of the proper names AND of the peeve of some gun owners of people incorrectly calling magazines, clips? So how do I fit in? I'm just a jerk that doesn't give a d*mn about the "rules"? I dunno. I do not think it is a big deal because even gun dealers call them clips. I say that we all start calling them clips because it is shorter and everyone already knows what you're referring to when you call it a clip.

I wasn't aware of it, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
True, but those threads usually start with ''In reference to what Bardock said in the other thread, about male on male fellatio...'' or something like that. That way, I, and other people with me know that the thread is of no interest to me/us, and I/we can proceed to do some shit I/we want/wanted to do. This is no big deal however.
But I am ignorant about guns. Knowing the difference between a clip and magazine isn't going to save me from looking ignorant. Besides, I don't see myself talking about guns with anyone on the internet, let alone in real life where I speak an entirely different language, so knowing the difference between the English words for them won't help me anyway.

I know next to nothing about weapons, but I did know that clips are not the same as magazines, however I believe clips and magazined have a relation, like a clip may be used to fill a magazine.
Finally, someone with a brain! ^-^;

There’s already a shorter word that refers to the ammunition holder of a gun. A “Mag” XD (Note that this was meant for sarcastic purposes and those who complain on it should slap themselves.)
Broski. Don't. No. Not like that.
