n00b (with zeros) is filtered but nOOb (with capi ohs) is not.

Actually, it's more 'in' to say newbie and elite in the CTF community, than n00b and 1337.

I remember the days when it was still cool to say "newbie" and "elite", instead of n00b or 1337.

Maybe if I start using those terms again, people will say "Wow, you're sooo RETRO!".

:cool:

To me, n00b indicates someone is bad at the game/whatever.... newbie is just that he's new/unexperienced.


And I agree with Fizz.

Since when has the swearing on the servers been so bad we need one? :/


I agree :)

You know what also bothers me? I hate it that they censored #%*&. I mean, for decades #%*& has been the most important #%*& in providing wealth, stability #%*& in the whole #%*& world. To censor #%*& means you're denying the basis of truth, the #%*& itself! So #%*&, my brethren!

Heh, I get it, you really wanted us to use REAL curse words so we'd get in trouble, and you'd laugh at us.......I don't support that........
