Subject: Now Wait Just A Damn Minute!

bah

Noob, Newbie, N00b, and any other variants on the word newb are hereby banned from use on this forum. Any user who violates this rule will be put to death.How are we supposed to keep the new people in check? I hereby propose we vote on this issue. People who are labeld noobs generally deserve the title. Maybe a system where people who have been here for a year can label people, and when three labels are made, the title sticks? LOL! That would be great!

bah

Newb is a term of respect. If you're new, and you're on good terms, you're a newbie, new person, or newb for short.

No that would be horrible. If three idiots have been here for a year and are good friends, they can label anybody who flames them for being trolls. Noob is such a stupid word anyway. It makes you sound like such a little kid. What's wrong with troll for the people who deserve it, and "Newcomer" for people who are just plain new? If you can start calling the trolls noobs, then people will start calling all newcomers noobs, and that's not very nice, and it lowers the standard of the whole forum.

See what I'm saying?

I wouldnt go as far as to say its a term of respect. I would be offended to be called any of those words.

Ohh The Rip Saw, you card. Would your system be based off of the amount of posts you have racked up? =P

Edit: The word amount has given me trouble since 3rd grade.

Most people don't even realize that n00b is not the same as newb... it was made a long time ago to replace LLama (which were given to people that use hacks/bug exploits/ingame cheats to win)... Speaking of which, you might as well ban Llama as well, since anyone here that played FPS in the old days would just call people that instead of n00b...

noob doesn't mean anything, you use 0's, not lower cased o's...

Newb = respected begginer, some one that is willing to learn how to play and get better...

I vote yes though, I don't want to see that crap being used...

OK seriously guys, we are talkin bout a frikin word "NOOB". People who are new deserve to be called newbs newbie etc. Its kinda like a intitiation if you will. When they get good enough, they are no longer called noobs. If they are goin to cry about somebody calling them a newb (WHAT IS THE WORLD COMIN TO??) then let them cry. my 2 cents.

Sounds like labeling people geeks, nerds, jocks or whatever you americans do in high school, eveyone should be respected for what they can do personaly not what their label says they can do. People believe it or not are unique as proven by the discovery of DNA

I definantly dont think it should be based off the amount of post you have.Many people post a lot but it doesnt mean much, just that they like talking ( i am not saying this applies to everyone).

i herad that if you have a high post count you will get flamed

  • 04.15.2004 9:05 AM PDT

If you post spam, just to raise your post count, you get flamed. If anyone here has 1000 posts allready, then there's a problem.

i thought the point of this site was to bring halo fans together, as long as they are willing. now your going to try to exclude people because they are new, how will we grow if we don't let new people particapate.

  • 04.15.2004 9:13 AM PDT

I'll be happy to answer that question. I need to make up for being an ass for the past few days anyway. ;-) Flamed is when someone verbally attacks another. Flames are not the right thing to do- you should remain calm, and argue your point out instead.

Most of the time a flame is just something like "YOU SUCK", "GO TO HELL".
