Get the Sky-netted mug.Netrek is the probably the first video game which can accurately be described as a "sport." It has more in common with basketball than with arcade games or Quake. Its vast and expanding array of tactics and strategies allows for many different play styles; the best players are the ones who think fastest, not necessarily the ones who twitch most effectively. It can be enjoyed as a twitch game, since the dogfighting system is extremely robust, but the things that really set Netrek apart from other video games are the team and strategic aspects. Team play is dynamic and varied, with roles constantly changing as the game state changes. Strategic play is explored in organized league games; after 9+ years of league play, strategies are still being invented and refined.
The game itself has existed for over 15 years, and has a solid playerbase, including some people who have been playing for nearly as long as the game has existed.
All netrek clients and servers are completely free of charge, although there are several people working on commercial netrek variants or derivatives.

• Netek
• Netrek

• netted dolphin
a professional, normally a lawyer, who strives to bring in business by the droves following business development seminars forced on them by evil bosses who think they have nothing better to do with their Saturdays.
Netters can be characterized by their inability to feel used, and enthusiastic go-getter attitudes at dorky conferences where potential victims convene. Netters are distinguished from prostitutes only by the fact that they wear suits, have business cards, and are normally so unattractive that even lonely dorky conference attenders who've heavily profited from the open bar wouldn't, quote, "hit that up if they paid me." However, in an ironic twist, some of these attendees have actually later paid quite willingly when served within 24 hours of meeting said netter.
Unlike rainmakers or networkers, netters lack real charm and are also tasked with actually having to work on the cases they bring in, usually resulting in a dull empty feeling on the part of the client that they have, indeed, been "nettered." However, such a feeling will be relieved when client receives annual fruit basket from the firm.
The international symbol of the netter is a shepherd's crook, crossed with a "Hello my name is ____" badge.

Get the Netter mug.Any kind of shorts that has a "net", or netting, inside it. It can be found in most board shorts.
The netting is used because sometimes, the elastics can show, or the boxer shorts might be longer.
It also holds your junk in place so that it won't fall out of the leg opening or bounce around. It also acts like loose briefs, so you don't have to wear underwear (if preferred).
