Outing means the revelation of a fact about a person (usually a fact about their personal life) that that person had not publicly discussed. The canonical example is publicly revealing someone's homosexuality. It is frequently used in geek circles to describe identifying someone by their legal name (or a name recognisable to family and friends) who prefers to be anonymous or pseudonymous online. This usage is also known in internet slang as "dropping doc(uments)s" or "dox".

  • Outing is "[s]haring someone’s secrets or embarrassing information or images online."
  • Outing refers to disclosing, and possibly publicizing, a gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) person's true sexual orientation or gender identity without that person's consent.
  • An outing is a mini-game scenario involving many Sims. The members of the group will follow the playable Sims wherever they go. They will also do group activities, such as dining out and bowling, together. Members of the outing other than the selected Sim will have small blue PlumbBobs above their head, but this does not indicate their mood. Pleasure Sims will usually want to have an outing.
  • Outing (also Role Outing) is a term used in Mafia to describe the situation where a player announces any player (especially himself) as being a particular role. While the information given to the Goodies is beneficial, it is usually avoided in the event of a non-friendly RID Kill. Some hosts forbid role outing and impose penalties (typically a loss of ability) on anyone who breaks the rule. It is considered bad etiquette to ever out the role of another player needlessly.

Some hosts forbid role outing and impose penalties (typically a loss of ability) on anyone who breaks the rule. It is considered bad etiquette to ever out the role of another player needlessly. A common exception to this rule is if a player announces the role of a player on a different faction, typically the baddie faction.

They will also do group activities, such as dining out and bowling, together. Members of the outing other than the selected Sim will have small blue PlumbBobs above their head, but this does not indicate their mood. Pleasure Sims will usually want to have an outing. There are two kinds of outings. There are outings just for fun, which are untimed and unscored, and outings which are timed and scored, similar to dating. Sims cannot have a date and an outing at the same time.
