The Godmod Institute for the Andvanced N00bular Studies, founded by Derscon and Hattia, dedicates itself to the study of n00bs, for a closer understanding of their stupid moronic ways and to find ways to either help or ridicule n00bs. The noobulus moronicus Also known as the n00b, is a lower intelligence species that has not yet grasped the concept of intelligent roleplaying, and we are not quite sure they can. All those interested, either post here or contact the two Presidents of the GIANS, Me, Derscon, or Hattia.

We hope to better educate and ridicule the population about the growing noobulus moronicus population and whar YOU can do to help the overpopulation. All are welcome to join!

We would like to inform you of a merge between The Godmod Institute for the Advanced N00bular Studies and The Newbie Investigation and Enhancement of Understanding Center. Together we will be able to completely fullfill the goal of the education of the public.

Also, all newbies and n00bs are allowed to come here to post specific questions had they not been answered by the stickies in both International Incidents and/or NationStates forums.

DICTIONARY OF ACRONYMS
IC: This is In Character. THis is a post that is being played out in a role-play. This could be playing out a war, or being as your nation/terrorist organization's leader.

OOC: This is Out Of Character. THis is a post that comes directly from the person sitting at the computer, not a character. Examples include the crapfest in the General forum.

RP: Short for Role-Play

You see, this is why I am doing this. There is a difference between n00b and newbie.

A newbie is someone that is new.

A n00b is someone that has no understanding of proper roleplay and a total godmodder.

Also, yes, noobulus intelligensis is recognized as an endangered species.

Our goal at GIANS is not to eliminate n00bs, but to simply have a better understanding of them, point them out, and send WMNK after them.

I apologize for not making this clear earlier.

scathing put-downs
That's the problem, in my opinion.

I hate to say it, but I've learned in long years on many boards, that some people just can't be helped. Some take advice and become fully integrated into the community. Some are ignored and go away, some are ignored and stay around.

In my book, such as it is, scathing put downs are usually initiated just before the 'ignore' button, for persistently irritating everyone.

You are all rambling on about nothing;

A N00B is a variety of Newbie.
The Breed Newbius Maximus is fine with us, although its interbreeding cousin noobulus moronicus is a major threat to sanity everywhere!

A secret facility known as The Newbie Investigation and Enhancement of Understanding Center has been investigating the breed of Noobulus moronicus, along with the Newbius Maximus, Newbius Puppeterius and not forgetting the rare breed noobulus intelligensis.

Just so you know, but shhhhh, don't tell anyone!

I'd like to post a new breed of n00b.
It's the luring n00b, or n00bulus intelligensis pseudonus
This is an even rarer n00b, who writes intelligently, and lures you into an RP. You enter, with the best of intentions, and are hit immediately by "320 divisions of infantry, all with body armour and high-powered rifles" are on your border. 120,329 tanks have begun an attack. You have lost:
1 army, 1 capital, 1 nation. (slight exagerration in the casualties, but the luring noob does have a tendancy to post your casualties.)
Luring n00bs also come in terrorist sized packages, where they ask, or sometime don't, for an RP. Generally, the most warning is, "I sneaked terrorists into the building overnight, they blew it up."
Does this classify as a new species? Or is it a sub-species of n00bulus intelligensis?
Starblaydia
09-04-2004, 21:57
I'd give you a general idea, but I won't bother. Do as you wish, I'm sure you'll benefit someone.

I don't just randomly insult and shout at new-comers, as that's what you seem to be implying. I have *properly* flamed perhaps three people in the last six years or so. On other boards I'm generally regarded as one of the more friendly posters, heavy on the quips and sarcasm but light on the furiosity side.

I will offer my support but I have an idea,

Why not merge GIANS into The Newbie Investigation and Enhancement of Understanding Center. Afterall we have allmost GODMOD technology to investigate the behaviour patterns of the Newbius varius.

In the last minutes we have recieved notice form the Examination room that the breed Warmongerius Newbius Dumbertarium is actually a confirmed sub-species of the more common Lurinatris Newbius, or Luring Noob which was discoverd on the Friday April 09, 2004 by Jordaxia. This sub-species is well known for its common urge to declare war on anything that moves, including very very large things that move.

This noob displays signs of
Noobulus idiotus
Warmongerius nubius
Noobulus moronicus
Godmodius moronicus
Ubernukeilarium Moronicus
newbius maximus.
Sample is identified as Sephrioth.
Evidence can be found by doing a search for him, and reading the post
"I declare war on any 1"
I think you'll agree, we must take this opportunity to witness a n00b in their native environment, and possibley into captivity, to observe how it resonds in engineered experiments.

Yes, I know that. "n00b" is a term used for people who cannot roleplay, usually new people who either act stupid or choose not to read the stickies.

Thank the Lord there are intelligent new people who ask for help, and they are welcome here, too.

I have also chosen N00bulus Magna-Spammarius Maximus for the classification.

Why not start a humble thread where we would all be corralled (a bit like Guantanamo Bay but, hopefully, without the leg irons (except for those who like leg irons.
Then you could all come and patronise us while we listen and learn, o great masters of wisdom who obviously deserve a nuke up the backside ...oops, sorry, didn't mean that.
And from our posts you could dissect, examine and finally decide which of us is fit to be admitted to your councils of war ... The rest you could throw to the sharks. :P

There's already a forum for this - it's called "General" and can be found here (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=5).

Maybe you should all join this institution, and stop bothering everybody. If anybody needs 'scathing put-downs', it's you veterans who think you're so great. Hey, you know what? You were all n00bs once. If anything, I think we need a culling of the population veteranius moronicus biasedus. Now, I'm not saying there aren't people who are nice to newbies - but you know what? To everybody who thinks newbies can't role-play - just shut your ignorant mouths. Just because you're new, doesn't mean you don't have a brain. And I can see some specimens here of people who have been around for a long time, and haven't yet grown a brain.

Thank you Sigmisund, for editing your spam.

Selixia, you do not understand this institution! Again, you must read the fact that WE CLEARLY AKNOWLEDGE THE FACT THAT THERE ARE INTELLIGENT NEW PEOPLE! Also, there is a difference betewwn a newbie and a n00b, you people need to recognize that fact.

There are three MAIN classes of Newbie, I just didn't feel like making the chart simple. :D

1) The newbie that CAN RP

2) The newbie that has never RP'd, but is willing to learn (I fell under this)

3) the n00b.

I wish all of you would start reading the posts by me, Jordaxia, Starblaydia, and Pablicosta, the most contributing members (not saying there aren't others, but "they've been with me since the beginning," so to speak) That way there are less confusions.

Come come gentlemen. Let us be accurate with classification.

You write noobulus imitatus. Rather, you should write Noobulus imitatus. The generic word, defining genus, has a capital letter. The specific name a lower case letter.

If you want to be really spot on then the words are either underlined OR in italics (but not both, please).

With respect to 'noobulus imitatus moddus deatus' I wonder if that should be Noobulus imitatus var moddus deatus? Or even f.sp???

Arthur: Of course! 'Tis one of the sacred relics that Brother Maynard carries with him! Brother Maynard! Bring out the Holy Hand Grenade!

Monks: (chant) Die Jesu domine, Dona eis requiem. Die Jesu domine, Dona eis requiem.

(Pause. Arthur examines the hand grenade, turning it over in his hands.)

Arthur: How does it...How does it work?

High Priest: I know not, my liege.

Arthur: Consult the book of Armaments!

High Priest: Armaments Chapter One, verses nine through twenty-seven:

Brother Maynard: And Saint Attila raised the Holy Hand Grenade up on high saying, "Oh Lord, Bless us this Holy Hand Grenade, and with it smash our enemies to tiny bits." And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs, and stoats, and orang-utans, and breakfast cereals, and lima bean-

High Priest: Skip a bit, brother.

Brother Maynard: And then the Lord spake, saying: "First, shalt thou take out the holy pin. Then shalt thou count to three. No more, no less. "Three" shall be the number of the counting, and the number of the counting shall be three. "Four" shalt thou not count, and neither count thou two, excepting that thou then goest on to three. Five is RIGHT OUT. Once the number three, being the third number be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade to-wards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuffit. Amen.

How about:
n00bicus dissimulo
Dontgonearthere beleivs that this is the dominant species of n00b in the artificial waters of NationStates today.
n00bicus dissimulo, or the Disguised n00b is not in fact a n00b at all.
n00bicus dissimulo is usualy a vetran or disgruntled DEATed nation seeking to annoy people and satisfy his/her/its need for attention.
The thing that makes n00bicus dissimulo so unique is the fact that (unlike other n00bs) it is not a carbon based life form, it does not rest, take food, or reproduce (Speculations are that it cant find anything that will reproduce with it), it is, in fact, an ATTENTION based life-form, it feeds on the attention of those who see threads like 'I N)KE WRLD!', those who enter the threads and say 'OMG! U CANT DO THAT!' are simply feeding it, causing it to grow beyond its normal, and generaly harmless, state.
However, the best way to defeat n00bicus dissimulo is to simply ignore it, not by entering its lair and posting 'OMG! IGNORE!', but by not going anywhere near it, not acknowleding its existance, not even LOOKING at it. Without constant attention n00bicus dissimulo dies or moves on.
Dontgonearthere has noted a recent drop in the population of n00bicus dissimulo, but we feel that it is a temporary phenomenon, and we will soon be seeing n00bicus dissimulo back to normal.

Also, would the agency like a forum on the International Mall? We would be happy to have you, plus you could expand out of your current one-room flat ;)
