A submarine is an internet slang term used to describe a person who suddenly disappears from a conversation or online community without any prior notice. They vanish without a trace, similar to how a submarine submerges underwater without any indication. In online contexts, being a submarine means someone stops participating or engaging in conversations abruptly, leaving others confused or abandoned.

1. Person A: “Hey, has anyone seen Tina lately? I haven’t heard from her in weeks.”
