Branching off from the "1st Convention on the Resurrection of NS General", what truly differentiates a good n00b from a bad one?

good n00b is a noob or newb. One who wants to learn, but hasn't quite yet gotten a hold of forum ediquette or dynamics. A n00b, is someone who usually uses 1337 and way too many smilies, especially :sniper: :mp5: or :gundge: . Those are the ones that either think they're being cool, or are being retarded on purpose, (like whats his face from "death to arabs" thread).

For some reason, I always laugh when I read Oh n03s!1. I have no idea why.

so the fact that I find this funny is good or bad?

I don't find good or bad so much as I find it strangely hypnotic...

Yah, but you can be a n00b. A n00b doesn't have to be, and often isn't new. It's basically somebody who doesn't "get it", is generally incoherent and posts in 1337 more than occasionally.

Now, how often do you post in 1337?

... a bad noob. :upyours:

... sry :fluffle:

Anyway, the difference between a bad noob and a good noob is just their attitude, of course their percieved attitude is really more of a reflection on your attitude, but then I guess you can tell when someones being deliberately offensive.

odd, in most of the gaming world 1337 is the anti-n00b.... here we have a game where people lump the two together.

Calling 13375P34k3R5 n00b5 is like accusing muslims of speaking too much hebrew :D:eek:

The quickest way to get the n00b tag here is to excesively use the gun/upyours smilies in your posts.
