    I think that the "fatty = gorge" is already mentioned.
    And it's not "gorgelift", it is "lerklift"....right? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    <span style='color:orange'>inc</span> = incoming, usually said with a location.
    example:

    "inc to via" = incoming to great viaduct
    "maint" = maintance (usually, but note: there's an area named Maintance in ns_hera too, almost like the hive at maintance in ns_eclipse.
    "silo", "power" = powersilo hive.
    "vent" or sometimes "ventilation" = hive location.
    "atmo" = atmospheric processing (duh?.. cant type)
    "engine" = engine room (hive location).
    "ref" = refinery (hive location)
    "sub" = Subspace (hive location)
    "port" = Port engine (hive location)

    "redroom" = its location near Viaduct. Not really like those, but somepeople dont know what/where it is. T

    heres at least tons of more, and theres lots of areas that we never mention & talk about.I dont know if these were said, at least i didnt see . <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->.

    In general.

    ul = unlucky (When you get killed by a stray shot, or you run into a group of enemies on your own etc.)

    proxey = gl (quake 2/3 origan)

    u also got all the shorts on hive names, and move to places, such as cc clear - waste full etc

    <<>> = head shot (very old cs sprite) - normaly the head shot is noticable with a a half life pain sound just before you die

    cl shite = cl_flushentity packet is laging them out - aka afk (a free kill)

    gg: also, "good going," usually meant facetiously
    nj: nice job
    rgr: yes/understood. If you use as WASD-style keyboard setup, this allows you to respond in the affirmative to a question/request without removing your right hand from the mouse.

    alot of common abbreviations (non- NS specific), you can go to www.acronymfinder.com . it's pretty great for finding the somewhat obscure ones (such as IIRC, AFAIK).

    and i'm pretty sure this thread isn't going to be stickied <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> would be nice though. even with the tireless advertising efforst of SoulSkorpion <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    LOL I tryed to post something like this the other week, thinking it had not been done, I guess when the Forums get near the 40k post in just 1 thread, its hard to come up with topics that haven't been posted.

    Still a very Helpful Thread!
