    there are no noob forgers, only... yea. a couple of 6 year olds i know just blew that out of the water. as to the post, while i already knew all the terms, ill definently come back to this when i post a map. maybe you could add a couple of glitches as well? im thinkin this is deserving of forging 101

    Unless you can name a few, I won't know what I am missing, so please be specific or I can't tailor the dictionary to your needs

    To clarify, there are two types of 'Barriers' that you have said above
    One is an Elastic barrier, and it prevents movement
    The other is a Death Barrier, where players die once they cross it

    Both prevent players from escaping the map, but they are different, so you may want to clarify that in the post.

    Hello? Post Bracing? What am I chopped liver? Post Bracing is the act of placing objects before ghostmerging that will set the height and or slope of an already pre braced object. Look it up in the New Forge Glitch thread near the bottom of the tips section...

    It actually is in the dictionary. The thing is I did not abbreviate it. OLN stands for Object Limit Number... meaning the number of objects that you can place on a map. You can hit this before hitting your budget or cash limit and if you do you will not be able to place any more objects on your map. OLN objects are objects that are on the default map that bungie provides. These objects do not count towards your object limit and if deleted you can not in any way get that object back, you may spawn another in its place but it will count towards your object limit. This is why people make OLN canvases or maps that move all of the original map objects into organized stacks, to allow forgers to easily work with the Original objects. Sadly I dont see any actual guide explaining how this works in more detail. I may have to make one after my next dictionary update.
