			Rattus, 
 
To answer your initial question, the original poster or OP for short, is the person that starts the thread. It would be the person that clicked on "New Thread" entered a subject line, and actually started the thread. 
 
If it wasn't you that sent Rocky a PM requesting the thread be closed, I'm sure somebody else did.
