niperwiper

I wasn't aware of the open application, too bad I missed it. Anyways, I'd prefer to write more as a columnist. Fiction is not my thing and I have a good place for debate already.

There's a strong difference between a noob and a newb. A newb is what the original poster is referring to: somebody who is new to the game and therefore sounds silly when making a big deal about things we consider trivial. But the fact is that every level is a big level, every million GP earned is a big deal. There is nothing to make fun of when a person progresses through the game. A noob, however, could just as easily by a lvl 10 as it could be a lvl 138. This is a person who makes stupid decisions blindly, and who just says or does ignorant things in general. This kind of noob does deserves at the most ridicule and at the least guidance.

Hello, I'll keep this short and sweet. I am very weary of posting on these forums; they're far too big for me to keep up with. But I'd like to write for some sort of column to get feedback on my writing and analysis of the game. I am also talented with graphic design and photoshop and would love to improve the visual quality of the things you see around here. If someone can help specifically point me a good direction to use these skills, I'd be very appreciative. Thanks and have a good one.
