New Acronym - FNG

New acronym.  Let me know what you think ... I started tx on Jan 11, 2008 and am new to this forum and it is so great.  I was reading a post from Orphanedhawk regarding a post I posted (haha) about my attitude and thought of it ... As I am new to this forum I am an FNG  -  Forum New Guy.  It works for a girl too.  FNG -  Forum New Girl ... interesting, no ?  Not an insult by any means.  Orphanedhawk mentioned that people that have gone through tx should held newbies.  I am surely grateful for the experience in this forum and cannot wait until I can help an FNG.  If you are familiar with the old acronym FNG ... I believe this is a pleasant twist.  Comments ?

Cute - FNG, and I like FOG too. Most of us old timers were or still in a fog. Brian did it though!

Hello!
FNG will probably work here...Be just to be forewarned...In other circles (like fire service, EMS, etc.) FNG stands for Fu**ing New Guy...LOL...Maybe NTF? (New to Forum) Not as cute, though...:)

You won't believe how quickly you won't be the FNG anymore (cute!) and all of a sudden your considered an old timer. My God...it went by so FAST I still can't believe it.

and you are right it IS the way - as long as their are FNGs there needs to be FOGs (forum old guys)...I was so helped when I first came here I could never just walk away now and not at least TRY to help others too.
