NewbieFrom WhatPort80(Redirected from N00bs)
 Newbie is an insult. Why it's an insult to be a newb at something that is probably a complete waste of time. This is a question that never passes through anyone's mind when they use this word. He or she is probably a newb them self because they were busy with girls while you were learning to use your keyboard and downloading pointless MMORPGs. new here hello?um I am trying to edit this ardickle? what am I DOING RONG??//?/ Example n00b BehaviorHey, do any of you know how to work these wikis or whatever people are supposed to call them?

DOESN'T ANYONE KNOW HOW TO WORK THIS THING?!? Typical n00b Behavior- What does LOL really mean?! ( at which point a veteran will reply: LLLOOOOOOLLL STFU n00b go die!!ยดยด ) - Letting their "friends" cut their hair and then take pictures of them looking like an idiot Characteristics Newbies (or n00bz, newbs, etc.) are often characterized by their lack of knowledge and seemingly unfathomable stupidity and ignorance towards the rules and etiquette of wherever they are. But this isn't the case with yours truly. No, sir! I've been working the Internet since I was seven-years-old, so I know how to work this. Because the Internets are serious business. Note: it is possible to be new and yet not be a newbie - the defining characteristic of a newbie is to be both clueless and unable or unwilling to get a clue for themselves. Okay, how do I get people to read this? Oh, I think I see a funny looking button. Gee, what will happen if I press it? Noobs are generally known for their lack of literacy and ability to spell, as well as the common usage of OMG!11!one LOL! LYKE WHUT?1ONE11!? and STFU LOLZ!!11eleventyone!1. They are also known for their cry of OMGLOLZ LETS CYBR!!11!, because they are usually idiots who can't get laid. When flamed, their comebacks usually consist of LOL WHUT? because they hadn't bothered to actually READ the message. Help me WhatPort80! I'm a N00b!

To which Mr. Babbage replied, "I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question", which is ancient British for "STFU NOOB." Question?Can you put the internets on my floppy disc please?

Noob-deceiving One of the most popular pastimes for non-n00bs is to tell them to do random crap. For example, when asking about anything on a program 1 in 5 times somebody will tell them to type in /quit or press Alt+F4. Because the typical n00b is gullible, they will do anything if they think it helps them. For example, on certain internet games (Enemy Territory) it is possible to tell a n00b how to change their config settings to like, totally make the controls heaps better. Far from advancing their gaming experience, n00bs find their controls paralysed.
You get the point. ExamplesYou can have n00bs do certain things that they either will not know how to undo or will be too stupid to notice anything is wrong.
Noobs and VirusesN00bs are also susceptible to viruses, because they are too stupid to find their way around a site without doing something stupid. They will then become very quickly scared as they realize their PC is filled with some pretty nasty stuff. The n00b will then have to explain to his father why Busty XXX girls want to perform for him. Much lulz ensue. Also, N00bs are the kind of people who give their credit card details out to dodgy African scams. No, they might not necessarily be the stereotypical n00b, but they are a n00b of a sort. A society n00b. See AlsoCategories: Epithets | Netspeak | People |
