how long are people N00bs?

[dontcareaboutmyid]

ok there's a difference

newb - person new to the site

n00b idiot that shows no respect to people

in plain english. I don't feel like putting my full deffinition.

And once you're a n00b, it's hard to convert. Very hard.

Ive been on the FFR site since about November of last year I jsut haven't joined the forum until July so I'm no noob maybe just on posts

[Cenright]

Most people do it that way. They dont start posting until they know at least comething about the game and the site. They come here to play the game, and later they see that there might be something other than the game here.

pity there are still some idiots out there that consider low post counts makes you a n00b. I don't know wether I want to establish myself into the forums now... As I said to cenright, I work in the background to avoid such contacts...

[dontcareaboutmyid]

a low post count makes you a newb, it doesn't make you a n00b

once we get to know you the newb status should be and is lifted.

[DaynieBurger]

Amazing, these "newbie" subjects never seem to get old to you people.

[Skeebz]

i was just thinking that.

Some people post more than others...like me, for one. I don't post that much...but when I do, I usually try to say something meaningful and avoid one-sentence posts.

But in my mind, it's hard not to consider anyone with under 100 posts not to be a newb.

Newb, n00b, whatever, all mean whatever you want them to mean. Generally it comes as an insult, rather than just refering to someone who is new to something.

I usually think of the term not as someone who is new, but someone who asks stupid, blatantly obvious questions, and generally acts in a childish manner.

I have a low post count, but I wouldn't consider myself a newbie, I just like to lurk and I pretty much only post when I really feel that I have something beneficial to say, and not just random crap to get my post count up.
