Does anyone else detest being called a noob?

[icemage]

Newb means new to something, obviously where newb came from... noob means you are annoying. If you aren't that then ignore them as everyone else says but if they really got on your nerves feel free to report them.

Everyone's always talking about reporting people.. reporting people for shooting at you ship or for taking your reps, what is the point of reporting people? Do they get in trouble? I don't mean to be rude, but with all this reporting how will the people in charge know when someone is doing something seriously wrong? I don't know anything about reporting, can someone please explain it to me? Am I way off base? This thread should be titled emmalemmalemma's q&a session..

Report means to send a report to a GM (Game or Global Moderater or Master) don't know... so just report and then switch servers or just try to run away and hide. They won't know they got reported though but you could say like "Stop annoying me or calling me names or I will report you!!!" Sometimes GMs do something about sometimes they don't but it never hurts to try right? Good luck to you and hope that no one does that to you again

I've been called a noob before on my second pirate. I have no idea why the person called me a noob. All I was doing was killing skels. The person who called me a noob had just come along and started attacking everything I attacked and then called me a noob. Pretty strange.

[Mr.LoveLocket]

do u expect a game to have 10000 considerate people?
Nope. Many people are newbies.
Just have fun and ignore them

If a pirate calls you noob because you're a young pirate then they don't know what they're talking about. Newb is short for newbie, meaning new pirate and wasn't designed as a cut, but more of a descriptive word for new player. Noob came along afterwards from people who couldn't spell, and has since been used as a descriptive word for players acting clueless and doing things that mess other people up.

We're all newbs at one point, so being called that shouldn't be necessarily a bad thing.

Personally I don't like name calling, and don't approve of guild members doing it. I have but one rule in my guild and that's "Respect all pirates in or out of the guild". However, the name calling thing is hard to enforce as I can't be everywhere all the time. But I try to lead by example as do most of the officers.

But when you think of it, noob and newb are basically the same thing, and both stand for newbie, or new player. Some people use it for other things just because they have no idea what they are doing. So next time someone calls you a noob, and you're a young pirate, just tell them, "why yes, I am a new player, thank you for pointing that out."

Reminds me of one of my basic days. I was in PvP and my opponent was attempting the undead glitch. I was called a noob because I was fighting in PvP. So that word gets throwed around alot these days. To be honest it never offended me because i was unaware of what it meant lol.
