The term n00b

[TwoEyedCyclops]

OK i am really getting sick of people calling other people n00bs or anything dissing them because they are new to NG. We really should be nice to them seeing how we were all noobs at one time. When they ask those simple little questions you usually thing, "OMG! look at that friggin retard! he's so dumb because he's new! i think i'll diss him!! HAHAHA I AM SUPERIOR!" and thats really dumb. We were all n00bs at one time or another and we don't need to diss them because they're new. The are looking up to us for advise because we have been here longer than them. so next time you see a n00b asking a simple yet dumb question just forgive them for their own stupidity because then when they "mature" they won't start topics such as "N00BS SUCK," or sumthin to that extent. after a while we all grow outta that stage in NG life but that doesn't mean you hafta go around dissing n00bs jeez. i think that a person calling a new person a n00b is imature therefore they themselves are n00bs.
so after you read this think about it and post a reply. thanks

N00bs shouldn't be bashed around just for being new - remember - some so-called N00BS may have an amazing artistic flash talent - ready to make the next no.1 movie in NewGrounds. Experience points, levels, BBS forum posts, blam/save rank, and reviews may not tell if you're good at flash or not. The next best flash artist could be at level 1. And if you diss them, you may be the next laugh on their flash video - if it makes it to the top videos. So... don't be so hard on these guys.

And one more thing, there is no such thing as a two-eyed cyclops. A cyclops has only one eye, but if the thing has two eyes, it is not a cyclops. cy means one, not two.

Who cares? Its a tradition with many things. When somebody new joins to other groups or occupations people play tricks on them. Then after a few months it wears off.

IE: Freshmen

Stop trying to fight against it, its the way things are meant to be.

You are such a dense moron.

People feel that they have to justify their existance on the internet. They do this by bashing other random people who they happen to have more "internet seniority" over.

Plus, the fact that n00b is "spelled" in 1337 speak makes one feel superior while typing it.

In other words, who cares? You can't even use the senior in highschool vs. the freshmen in highschool argument because in all likelyhood the person you're calling a n00b is old and more intelligent than you...they just happen to have a lower post count or level.

Damn, why do people care so much?
