The Common "Noob"

[Chimera Doll]

I don't like the term noob at all. I've been called it while on a lower level pirate and I have a completely mastered pirate so in no way am I a "noob"....
But the point is that it's just plain rude and it IS used way too loosely. Like if someone makes a mistake in the game, they will be called a noob for it.
Now if it's used in a joking sense; to me that is different.
