tourist

tourist n.  [ITS] A guest on the system, especially one who
   generally logs in over a network from a remote location for
   {comm mode}, email, games, and other trivial purposes.  One step
   below {luser}.  Hackers often spell this {turist}, perhaps by
   some sort of tenuous analogy with {luser} (this also expresses
   the ITS culture's penchant for six-letterisms).  Compare
   {twink}, {read-only user}.
