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

<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 . <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>.

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 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'> would be nice though. even with the tireless advertising efforst of SoulSkorpion <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>
