WHY DO PEOPLE CALL OTHERS NOOBS?!

Featured Replies

Its really been bugging me that almost all of runescape has the need of desire to call someone else a 'noob'. Isn't everyone a noob at one point? I mean, I think it is sort of hypocritical. i just hate it when I see lvl 100's picking on lvl 20's and calling them noobs. Maybe they just say it because they hated it when the lvl 100's of their age were picking on them when they were lvl 20. Who knows. Lol, if I got 1gp for every time someone said noob, I'd be a billionaire in less than a week.

The word "noob" has no meaning and never did, noob.

Noob is a [developmentally delayed]ed leetspeak term. Avoid using it, and laugh at others that do.

I absolutely love the word noob. For me, RuneScape wouldn't be RuneScape without it.

I first logged in to Runescape in August of 2004, and I have yet to use the word in the game. I try to help and benefit the community not bring it down.

Im so high I belive i can flyrang3_x_2h.png

I allways say: "noob is the one who calls the others noobs"

 

 

 

Sometimes they say back that I'm a noob and than I say "just and only for you :P"

You have every right to remain silent whenever you get mocked at or belittled.

tbh i only know 1 reason i call ppl noobs lol... its nothing personal tho..

 

for ex: i gain a combat lv i have some money to buy something tht i really wanted for a while, lets say a whip when it used to be like 4m lol long ago...

 

when the price went dwn for the whip to 3.4m im really happy cuz its cheaper... so i say buyin whip for 3.5 just so sum1 can sell... but then 20 mins go by and u say huh anytime now... 1hr go by... this is taking 4ever...

 

2hrs go by and finally some1 will trade you... but uh oh its a scammer u decline... 3 hrs go by nothing happening.... 4hrs... u get a trade but some1 sell for 4m and u say: omg you noob its 3.4m now get a life!!...

 

i call ppl noobs when i get irritated of how long i've been waiting...

 

the only reason i use the term noob ftw and ftl..

Perhaps they do that because of others doing it to them when they were 'noobs'. Just like abused children become abusive parents \' !

If you are seriously waiting FOUR hours trying to buy a whip for above the going price you really need to look somewhere else. Like a trade world? Or the forums perhaps?

 

 

 

OT: I see no reason whatsoever for the word noob being used in anything but jest. Even if someone is acting like a real idiot, spouting off inane gibberish in "leet" speak, or whatever else, using that word just shows that you aren't much more intelligent than the person that you use it against. Despite Jagex's filter, there are still plenty of other, more creative insults at your disposal; though resorting to insults is certainly never the best way to deal with someone.

Because they lack the origionality to come up with anything better.

 

Noob! :lol:

 

 

 

I use noob pretty jokingly now. It has never been a serious insult, nor will it in the future.

I find it just to be a very irritating word; not like any bad meanings.

I dont need a siggy no moar.

"moron " isnt sensored.

 

 

 

Try using that

Let me explain this simply: This is the internet. People say noob because they have the rights to do so. If this was real life they'd have been slapped by now. Sadly, it's not. If you hate the word, I recommend you yell at the person if it ticks you off so much.

If Jagex removed the censor, I sure would never call someone a 'noob' ever again.

I use the word "noob" alot in place of other words, mainly idiot. However, I use the word "noob" out of annoyance and anger, Like swearing I would swear at someone because they are annoying me or I am angry. Although typing out the 4-letter word used in everyday runescape, they will still annoy and bug you. The simplest thing to do is turn your private chat to friends, ignore them and change worlds. Then be faced with more annoying idiots that cause unwanted anger.

 

 

 

Thank you.

Luck be a Lady
