#2 seems simple, but as you can see from the past few days it's not as straightforward as it seems. There are positive ways to do this and there definitely are negative ways to do it. The negative ones vary a lot.. let me give you a few examples:

- Annoy or harass others, so they will do your bidding to make you stop. This is essentially the same concept that a child exerts when they whine, hence the term. In a forum, it can be seen when someone keeps talking about the same issue again and again in multiple threads.

- Intimidate others by saying things like "I'm gonna slap\punch someone if I'm in the same room as them"
was the whinning comment directed at me? i was at work in boring meeting at the time i read it. lol but i do get your point.
