Noob is bad?
Is being a noob really a bad thing? I mean whenever you call someone a noob, it just pisses them off even though they're green or white belt. It just doesn't make any sense. For example, read the last 2 posts of this and then go to the next page: Project Self Destruct (read page 5 and 6) This guy gets mad because I call him a noob and he's green belt. Guys I'm really confused. Is there another meaning to noob?

For gaming slang, it is a way of saying you suck. But in reality, it is just a shortened way of saying newbie which means inexperienced newcomer. I don't know for sure how it changed into the current meaning that it holds in the gaming community, but it is not something you should get worried about if someone calls you one.

I try not to call people Noob unless their being a D*ck to people
And sucking at the game. IDK Noob sounds pretty mean for some reason
Maybe It's highlighting their ignorance to the game and can piss people off
Maybe

noob =/= newb

a newb is someone new to the game, and a noob is someone who has been playing a game for a while and still sucks.

Well, it's the same thing as calling someone a sl*t, for example - it doesn't mean she f*cks everyone and sells herself, it's just the fact you want to make them angry.

Noob is someone who has a lot of experience but acts inexperienced. It's different to just a newbie.

Pointing out that someone is beneath you because of some arbitrary measure is rude.


I don't know why I'm even replying to someone with a join date in 2013 who has only 161 posts. Ugh.

I think this sums it up on why people get mad when you call them a noob, not a newb

But in all reality... I think I might be insane...

Well this is kinda off topic, but I've been here for more than half a year. This is just an alt which I turned into my main =3 I just stopped playing after a while
Also, I actually post a lot compared to the other 60% Blue or Brown belts that have like less than 50 posts

The irony of this word is that the person who wins always gets called it by the loser....
