What this was
A subreddit where people describe a conflict and are judged in initials: YTA, NTA, ESH, NAH. The verdicts escaped the site entirely and are now ordinary shorthand for taking sides in an argument.
It first appeared in 2013, during the social era.

Behind the recordWhere it came from
There is no original to identify: this spread through many separate posts at once rather than from a first one. ViralWorld holds no copy of it either — what it was, when it spread and what people called it is the record.
Nothing here is claimed to be the first version of this, because research established there was not one — it appeared in many places at once.
Not established. This index only names a creator where the evidence supports it.
