Subject: how to get rid of noobs from halo reach

The words "noob" and "newb" are 2 totally different words. A "newb" can be a 'new player' or someone that may not be fully oriented with the game yet. A "noob" is someone that is rude, immature or just plain dumb. Someone that you would cross the street to avoid.

when posting on this forum i want you to to keep in mind the definition of a "noob."

i hate noobs and i dont want to see them pollute halo: reaches online. i think bungie could get rid of some noobs if they made some gameplay changes that piss noobs off but are perfectly good for decent players.

how do you think bungie can get rid of noobs?

i think bungie could get rid of some noobs if they made some gameplay changes that piss noobs off but are perfectly good for decent players.In other words, you want gameplay changes that will make.....rude people angry? It's obvious that you're using the word "noob" in the context of "bad players".

New players, are NewComers. Not Newbs.

Newbs is a parody term of Noob.

And discussing semantics is absurd in an online forum.

Do you really care? you can't automatically see my signature anyway.

What does it matter maybe we should just stop people who have problems with 90% of the halo populations from playing halo reach.

they are different. newb is just a name for a new player. noob evolved off of newb and became a derogatory term for bad players

i just wanna play halo and have fun. i dont want my experiance ruined by bunch of players who make my time miserable. i know alot of you would like to see the barbaric hordes of xbox live scumbags off of halo.

actually on the noob newb part it is the other way around newb is short for newbie. noob is a parody because its an incorrect spelling.

Actually, you have that completely reversed. The original term 'newbie' was shortened into the word 'newb', which later begot the term 'noob'. Furthermore...

...oh, nevermind.

Actually it started off as newbie, and people used newb, then people started using noob, and all the newbies thought it was an insult and started using it as an insult, and now everyone goes around calling other players noobs. The new form of noob is more or less an abomination of newb created by noobs themselves.

Just let the bad players play social only until the system sees enough improvment and give them a chance in ranked.
That way the bad players wouldn't get dominated and the good players wouldn't -blam!- about a dumbed down game and bad teammates.
Of course good player shouldn't be allowed in social, bad kids only.

You can't get rid of annoying players. Just add a mute button. Sorry. I would really like to get rid of you off these forums for using the noob definition of noob, but I can't.
