No Noob is Good Noob

<< < (3/6) > >>

SirNotlag:
no I dont think newbie is offensive newbie just refers to someone who is new "noob" on the other hand is just kinda calling them sucky.

shaelyn:
I never thought newbie or noob as derogatory either, in and of itself.  it's moreso the way it's used.  if someone says with a particular tone of voice that screams frustration "you're such a noob," no, that isn't going to feel good.  that's a particular context, though.

I don't see fault in using Powder Monkey instead, but I do see that, as the term becomes more regularly used, it'll essentially be used the same way noob or newbie is now.  someone screaming in frustration "you're such a powder monkey" isn't going to feel any less derogatory.

Echoez:
I'll quote the Soldier from TF2, all newbie engineers should be called 'Grease Monkeys' now.

Andika:
I don't get it. Why don't we call new players 'new players'?   :D

pandatopia:
