Noob or Newb??

At almost any time at all, we seem to misuse this common phrase in online games and real life. I've always called my fat ass friend a noob in DoTA, but now i realized my mistakes. But seriously, although he did abit of improvement to actually NOT ks us that much, as usual....he isn't fullfiling his role in DoTA. And since cause of that, we had to scold him. Again. I'm on a dilemma whether to call him noob/newb/fucker or sohai.

Im gonna talk bout the definitions of noob and newb. And their origins of course. Noob was invented after Newb. Newbie was used in the U.S. troops in the Vietnam War as a slang term for a new man in a unit. Although im very sorry and disappointed myself that i cant find the creator of the word noob.

Newb means a person who has just joined an online game or a group of some sort. Basicly newcomers/freshmen. They should be treated with kind response to their questions and actions because they dont know much about the game. You, whether you had played any online games before, should understand, NOBODY IS PRO FROM THE START. THEY WERE ALL NEWBS!!!

Whereas noob means a person who HAS played the game before, he has knowledge of the game but has no manners. A rude, selfish person. A noob is someone that acts in offensive ways to other users or people that surround them and refuse to go away, or stay by any other methods for the sole purpose of annoying others(THIS IS VERY UNTRUE BECAUSE IN DOTA, LEAVERS ARE NOOBS). The word noob can also mean in an online game someone who did something stupid, or asked an obvious question. For example, if someone asks a question answered in the FAQ or is common knowledge, others will call that person a noob.

We always hide our identity in online games, to avoid anyone from knowing we're pro, we always put names like ImaN00BIE/MeNoob/StupidNoob/Noobfocker and all that. These names usually prove that these people have knowledge of the game, but sometimes their name would mean what it says >_> so please consider what your name before using it =='ll.Yeah, my friends favorite line before a DoTA game starts is saying IMAN00BIE!!DUN BULLY PLZ!! =='ll. But hes god damn pro =='ll

Please dont misuse the above words again, the both seem similar but their very different. And for those lazy asses who didn't bother to read this post despite the fact i had fixed my english, here a webcomic i scooped up for the definition of noob and newb. And to all from SMKDJ who are form 3, Diong =N00B. I would puke calling him newb. Darn the webcomics too big so CLICK ON THIS LINK. Its a webcomic, no virus or pun intended.
