For some reason, everytime a noob says something dumb/funny in the forum it makes me just wanna yell EffInn NOOB. But then I remember how it was when I was once a noob.

Everyone was one once. Most of my first posts on these forums had members who pointed out how much of a newbie I was (usually indirectly).

Heh, In games I always end up calling people n00bs should they get raged at someone that is better at playing the game then them etc or should they start calling us names/flaming.

At the risk of sounding rude, that's because your immature and caught up in a cheap internet trend.

Calling someone names because they haven't been doing something as long as you and are still learning ain't cool, man.

I don't really bother with it. I mean I have typed and said some stupid ****! Hell I'm probably still doing it and I will look back and be disgusted in 3 years.

Nothing wrong with pointing it out. Like where there is someone on this forum typing like "i relly like this :laff: :laff:, it iss cooooooollllllllllllll, buti can't have it yet so i must w8t :cry::cry::cry:, unless u want to send it to me o_o:laff:

English or not, that's just annoying.

But if someone is having a difficult time or trying to get the handle of things, I see no reason to be an ass about it. Instead of worsening the problem, try to assist a bit? I don't even use the word "noob", too internety, I only care about the things that annoy or piss me off without a rationale.

Agreed.

The ESF forums were the first forums I had ever been to. So naturally I didn't know you could sticky stuff, or pin things, or had a search button or anything. So naturally I asked questions about ESF that I didn't know were already answered.

To be fair, i've never been a n00b. I've been a newbie, and I still am a newbie to many things, but never a n00b. You internet slang n00b.

After looking at your profile it's obvious you still have a lot of growing up to do, junior. If you plan on calling people "noobs", even though you have no idea who they are it makes you sound like an idiot... and a child--but hey, if it makes you feel good, that's all that matters, right? You seem like the type of person who's vulnerable to any form of verbal attacks.. you know, in a way that you're affected emotionally, yet you'll name call & try to act intelligent around people you don't even know, and who are most likely older than you. Your brain has a lot of evolving still to do. This is one of the reasons I pity you.

oh yeah, i could say i was a noob for 2 days or so, i werent playing esf at internet, just with bots and stuff. so well, after 1 day i learned all the advanced melee and premeleeing+beam spamming, and thought that i was a pro now ^^
well then, i decided to finally go pwn some people, but vice versa :|

my friend was like me too, but i was way better skilled than him, i asked did he know how to basic melee, he said yeah, i know all the things, and even the pro's cant stand a chance against me!
then we started the game, and he didnt even realize, when he tried to atk me, i teleported behind me, and called me hacker.

well thats not involving to this, but it was funny :p
