while most people make no distinction between newbie and noob, I think there should be one

I'd consider 'noob' to be an insult, however it's a rather bad insult which tends to make the person using it seem a whole lot dumber than the people he/she is insulting.

No gamer likes to be called a noob, newb, n00b, or any other variation of the word, but my question is, whats your reaction? Do you get angry? Do you blow it off? Do you go and cry in your basement for 6 hours? I want to know what GBAtemp's reaction to the word is.

I say "Well no fucking shit, I just bought this game 7 minutes ago."

In much the same vein as I approach the rest of my life, I couldn't give a rat's ass what anyone (least of all a "random" on the internet) thinks of me.

I really don't care about being called that : After all, if some people think so highly of themselves that they believe I'm lowering their gaming standards, they should just go play on some elite servers with their mad roxxor skillz and let me have my fun.

You've been called a n00b?

I was called an Alabama hotpocket by a 12-year-old kid on CoD once.

It's like...not even a noun, man. It's more like an action.

Why would you do that ._.
The act itself and calling someone that ._.

i don't really care, it does not bug me at all, i play CoD online a lot, i think its funny as hell when they call me a tuber or camper, yes i "Camp" i sit or lay in a spot, kill 1-2 ppl, than move to a new spot and sit, kill, kill, than move lmao....... so i say "yes i am a camper, thanks!" lol, its fun and funny to me, they rage quit after a game or 2 then its over lol



now a "nOOb-tuber" is diff., that is people who just pull a tube and shoot, no aim, no taking time..... just pull and tube. thats a noob-tuber

i do get called that but i am not one.. i am a tuber, i take time to aim, and angle my tube than shoot, and as for that name.... i do that very same thanks "Yes i am a tuber, Thanks", again its all fun and funny to me

I trace their IPs, locate them, smother them in their sleeps, cut them to pieces, grind them into my chili and feed them to their parents.
