Not required, just something to sharpen your teeth on.

Best rules to follow for etiquette:

Admin Moderator="The Man" Don't mess with the AM. They have the power of ZOT.

Jim Robinson="The Man's Boss" 'nuff said there. He OWNS this site.

Side Bar Moderator: Controls the content seen on the right side of the screen. Don't mess with them either.

Newbie: I don't need to explain that one to you. Much like newbies everywhere - such as LeJune.

Welcome to FR! Always good to see another grunt around here. I spent 10 yrs infantry in the Army, and one summer at Quantico in the Corps Platoon Leader Class. Are you still active?

Thanks to this newbie -I too am one. Fabulous place. We have been struggling to understand the lingo and did figure some out but 'ping'and BTTT and bump were mysterious until now. Thank you guys for explaining.

We have to tell you that you guys helped us survive the wave of negative "crap"flowing out of the Kerry camp towards us during the last week of the election. Thanks. We went to bed every night having had a great laugh from pictures, comments, etc. This site is indeed very addictive -It may be added to the DSM in time.

I finally figured out what STFU meant election night after 3-4 beers. I love this place.

A "clymer" is an Major League A$$h0le,

A "liberal" is a crybaby,

A "Bushbot" is someone who loves Bush even when he doesn't win elections with 100% of the vote and turn the country conservative overnight,

A "rat" is short (and accurate) for Democrat,

A "clinton" is the pile the dog leaves steaming in the yard when you let him out,

"PETA" stands for "People Eating Tasty Animals"

In the future, use SKNHANHOFS instead of "STILL KINDA NEW HERE AND NEED HELP ON FR SLANG". No one will know what it means but everyone except you will feel like a newbie.

And "bump" is a lazy "bump to the top".
