| Why does "noob" have to be an insult?? | |

Bubu - Hubbub  |
People are going around calling others noobs. while dueling, i've noticed that some of you out there when you cannot defend against a certain technique or don't like a certain style, you immediately pull out your extensive vocabulary of insults and start with "noob" and "lamer". you people are not only being rude to the people you are calling that but also to actual newbies. by calling someone a noob you would imply that being new is in some way a negative thing. which to me only shows how "mature" you really are. just a thought... _______________ make install -not war |

Bubu is right, just cuz you beat someone doesn't mean you can call em a n00b, or if you are beaten by something and you don't understand it, you don't call em lamer... _______________ -ShadowSith: CTF/gunner specialist. |

I cant believe im hearing this!..... All experienced players call people noobs, and quite often too! If u have played multiplayer since the game came out (which i have) then the best way to reply to someone who call's u a noob is to say: "ive been playin this game since before u were born" when they say "this games been out for like 5 months" u say "exactly!" this usually shuts them up, and they wont call u a noob again! The only time i call someone a noob is when they anger me to the point of the 'red mist descending' These people are the type that run of in the wrong direction (on purpose) when carring the scepter, ar a droid part, or do someting just plain stupid like purposely killing their own team members or running right through ur trips, so they can set their own up. The other thing i hate is when people swear and curse, this really annoys me and i usually call a vote to get them kicked. If u really are a newbie and someone calls u a noob, call em a noob back, give em a taste of their own medicine! The best thing to do if u are new to the game is to play all the maps u can with bots first, that way u know what to do and where to go when u play with people. _______________ Dark side?

I agre completly, n00b should not be used in anyway but the reason it is meant. Being new is not a bad thing, in fact i miss being a n00b.

Well said Bubu I totally agree with you. Since the prime objective of the Academy is trainning it's normal to see people new to JKA thus with less skills. I'm sure YY,WW,Virtue,Luke all start somewhere......and at that time they were..... So be careful of the person you call n00b cause over the time you may have your ass kicked by that same person and who will be the n00b after that??? |

i personally think it is used wrongly people use it when they lose to make themselves feel better Jacen is correct nobb was originally for a new player but seems as if soem poeple interpret it as a insult but the term "noob" is only used to comfort soemone when they lose or are lossing no offense ment to any1 who may say it by the way  |

There was a recent incident where someone eledgedly called someone else a n00b, and he had a hissy fit and started kicking and sabering. My thoughts? If someone's low enough to use n00b as an insult then don't give them gratification like retaliating, feel sorry for 'em instead |
