FNG Badge part 1

bigmck

I have seen the FNG Badge on some Sigs. I realize this isn't an official badge, but what is it supposed to represent?

I am leaning toward not believing that due to the laughing icons of others. Now come on boss, be straight with me.

Doc gave you an answer in his post, but it's handed out to people who reach the 2,000 post mark. It's been called a few things, Fine New Goat, Fine New Gentlemen, Johns Finish National Gallery or Fine New Goldmember, take your pick which you want

I would have thought it would be different since the Gold Member is for that. Thanks to everyone for answering my question. == Forum National Guard ???

Just Google fng and look at the results if you want to know where the original came from, and what it means.

The Goldmember Consortium treats unauthorized posesstion/display of the coveted FNG badge in a most severe fashion... you proceed at your own peril!!!

linnemeyerhere

I'm gathering that a most severe penalty will come to me if displayed a post to early ! And yes my goat is happy ?

Do not tempt the lenient nature of the Goldmember Consortium lightly.. its influence is far reaching and swift!! You have been warned! I can say no more..

It's a military term (Foxtrot November Golf in the NATO phonetic alphabet). Click the link below and read number one.
