The Xeno wrote:n00b and newbie... The Xeno's definition: (imho)
A 'n00b' is the catchall term for a 'newbie' who embodies abnormally large amounts of stupidity and/or sloth and/or incompetence.

newbie is simply a new player who (due to their newness) lacks experience and skills at a certain game(s).


Also from Urban Dictionary:
n00b wrote:1) A person who is new to a game
2) A person who, regardless of experience, lacks the skill or copmetence to be competitive in a certain game
3) Someone who tends to whine or complain when being beaten at a game - often done by accussing more skilled opponents of hacking
4) One who may talk trash, claiming to be elite at a game, only to be beaten down by a better player, or will turn down any games when challenged by better players.



hmm your xeno definition is actually what many people consider to be n00b

so i guess yours is right

*Does a little dance...
Of course, I find that I usually set the bar for 'abnormal stupidity/sloth/incompetence' pretty low... and I think that is where most of the conflict arises.

And since we are spamming... who or what is this amras?
Tolkien or...?

I personally like this definition of the words. http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/comic.php?d=20060823 there are pictures so it makes sure everybody even the abnormally stupid understand. An exception to this is if you are blind, but that means you can't read what anybody else wrote anyways. :D
