Straight from the help file on Feudal Realms. Compliments Terloch for putting it there. To understand some, you kind of need to know some of the characters.

-|| || || any, many, many people have asked, 'Terloch, what is a twink?', so I
|, \\,\\, will do my best to explain to you what I personally think the Feudal
_- Realms version of a 'twink' is to clarify things. We'll use the mode
popularized by Jeff Foxworthy to describe them...

You might be a twink if...you have an alt in every house just so you can get
gossip to spread back and forth, pk when your side is winning, or loot the best
items from one house to another.

You might be a twink if...you know something is against the rules, know it is
not hard coded, and break the rule knowing that if no one is on to catch you
that you will probably get away with it.

You might be a twink if...you've been busted enough times to know the vnum for
the Realm of the Dead room.

You might be a twink if...you think the names Gandalf, Roxorz, Kewlies, Zeus,
Terlick, and other assorted niceties are acceptable names and take offense at
the mere thought of being asked to pick a new name.

You might be a twink if...you create as an elf and immediately ask for someone
to summon you to Stonegate because you might get lost in Kisah.

You might be a twink if...at level 25 you repeatedly ask for yet another
summons
into gas beasts to try to get your corpse back for the third time.

You might be a twink if...after several warnings, multiple jailings, and a few
threats of sitebanning that you still cannot figure out that people who aren't
pk aren't supposed to help those who are pk at all.

You might be a twink if...YOU CAN'T FIND YOUR CAPS LOCK KEY!

You might be a twink if...when you talk to someone you insist on using socials
in multiples of four (or sadly but true, more).

You might be a twink if...your character gets married, has sex, and has twins all in the span of a real day, just so you have another alt to level up, find
some reason to hate their parents, and to join another house.

You might be a twink if...your character has been in more than three houses, or
been outcast by more than one noble, only to find some shred of a reason to get
yet another one to take you into his or her service to start all over again.

You might be a twink if...you have so many alts that you lose track of their
names and/or passwords and have to have an admin look them up for you.

You might be a twink if...you collect maxloaded eq that your character cannot
use, simply to have it so no one else can

You might be a twink if...your last name is Nomiki.

You might be a twink if...you write a note on the boards, log out, log on one
of your alts, and write a supporting note on how cool the original note was.


Tikui adds these:

You might be a twink if you ask for abludgeon when your level 10,
but when someone asks you for a bludgeon you give them the bird.

you might be a twink if you complain about your 15K base.

You might be a twink if you complain about your 2.3K base.

You might be a twink if you name your alt Arth,
when our original character is Marth.
