Has anybody noticed how n00bs tend to stick to certain fads?
Of course, this may be because, at one point or another, many of them were actually puppets of other players. Ahhh 2003, that was a real good year for n00bs. They had it down to an ART back then.
I beleive at that point most n00bs were the stereotypical n00kzor variety, along with a healthy mix of self-righteous image-spammers who freaked out when people tried to give them advise (its really to bad the mods dont allow those anymore, IMO). And the godmodders who thought they were good RPers. And assorted WMD dealers.
Things kind of went up and down from there.
The ones I REALLY do miss were the UN-destroyers. Those were n00bs with purpose. At one point I remember at least five threads on page one (back before Jolt, oh the joy of the random load times ;)) titled something along the lines of 'i declar war on the U.N.!!!'
*sniffle*
That is why I think NS should establish a n00b protection program and construct a n00b preserve of some sort. We can send out expiditions to find samples of every species of n00b and preserve them for later generations of NSers!
