All you have to do to join in the fun is state your preference...

MOF - It's ok to put your mask on your forehead
NMOF - This means you are "in distress" or something like that.

And here I thought it meant "multi-orgasmic female".....doh! I might need to go edit a few comments on some other threads....lol.
Actually, in some of the threads, it stands for "mask on forehead"

NMOF means you drank the PADI Kool-aid.

Thanks all4scuba05. I saw those posts too and wondered what I had missed.

For future reference, you may want to bookmark this thread:
http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=39645
on the first page DandyDon has quite a long list of abbreviations.

MOF isn't on that list 'cause it's fairly new, but if you find others your wondering about, that thread would be a good first place to look. Otherwise, ask within the thread that contains an unclear term, generally people have no problem helping you out with such terminology.
