Newbie Question

[redlocks322]

Being new and all, I don't understand what a ping is...

[nopardons]

It isn't?

Brie or Swiss?

[Darksheare]

LOL!
His question is answered... and the jokes have begun..
Hope his sense of humor is quite good.
It can be hard on newbies when they don't know the forum jokes, or don't know what the joke is.

Been needing an updated version of the FR Lexicon, but it's a job for someone with way better HTML skill than I have.

I remember the nightmare I had in making and formatting posts correctly back when I signed up
Whoo-boy..

Ping. . .

[azhenfud]

Now I'll answer truthfully; "ping" is really the present tense of the past participle, "pung"

Welcome.
I have been alerted to the fact that I typo'd in post 43.
So, I am bound by oath to tell you that my typos are infectious.
So if you start doing the same typos as I do, you will at least know where they came from.
