what does the FNG, old school hamber, grenade inspector etc mean. and how do you get to the different titles?
na, you didn't miss anything. Just prepare for a lot of crap to come your way for asking a simple question. The assumption is that every new guy reads ever word on every page before posting. Most don't, ask questions, and get blindsided by guys who made the same mistakes when they first started. To answer your question they are an indicater of how many posts you have made. Unless you have an extra fifty bucks then you become an alliance member. or you're someone famous, then you get to pick your own. Craig
it's a line from a Wallace and Grommit movie Welcome to the wonderful world of the hamb, and don't let the effin new guy tag get to you....soon you'll be inspecting grenades with the best of them
The good news is, in just a short while, you get to shit all over the newbies who ask perfectly reasonable questions.
I think it's intentionally hidden so some of us can tee off on new folks who ask about it and some of us can act nicer than we are when we help you out. Seriously though (always trust a HAMBer who says "seriously"), make sure you post an intro, think before you speak most of the time and remember it's not how many posts you have but how you contribute. Welcome to the HAMB.
Yeah, its not a competition, i only post when i have something to contribuate (sp) but when i do its something i know something about, Ive been here a long time but you cant tell by the post count, its symply because i learn more then i know, but i put in some smartass remark now and then.....but basicly, post count is nothing!
any way wut does FNG stand for ????? it took me a while to figure out wut HAMB meant, but I did it all by myself......... ????????????? Fuckin New Guy????????????????
aaahhh.. but you spelt f'n with an e and that through me off? If I kick the $50 for the killer plauge will that help me to loose the FNG label??? I'M READY!!!
And what is the order,(bottom to top) so I can identify to rest of the crewand their status? I know it dont matter, just curious?
YEAH NO PROB! Just get me all your info including checking account #'s passwords, social security #'s mother maiden name etc.
ORDER????????????? what fucking order, like this place has any type of order to it man look around u, but be warned keep ur mother, sister, girlfriends & wife away from here(some of these guys are, well u know, lol) that is unless they have choc chip cookies MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM cookies......joe
Well, if you behahave nisely (SP? Im, swedish)youre gonna be treated nice, just keep it in topic and ask nicely!
I don't post much at all, but god damnit. I sure as fuck aint payin' $50 to be some gawd damn alliance member!!! even if i have to be a FNG or newbie till the day I shit the bed. 2 cents.
OK...here's the deal. The Alliance isn't a car club... It's like a coupon book with a really nice membership card (plaque). It saves you money on the parts and services the vendors offer. It's there for YOU. Joining doesn't suddenly make your "old-skool rat rod" shtick cool.
AND it is to support this Forum so that Ryan doesn't have to dig all of the money to run it out of HIS hip pocket!!!
My alliance membership paid for it'self the first time I called Coker. Take a look at the value of information on here. You can get help on just about anything auto related here. No one is joining for the tin or the name change. Hell, I get $50.00 a year out of entertainment value, just from threads like this one. Craig
Craig, Good News? Far too easy too shit all over newbies, just lookout for the shit that comes flying back, if the person has any balls. Cruiser 49
