I am an oldbie, pretty much.. I've been around for over 2 years.. I present myself reasonably intelligent in the forums, but I act like a fool on graal, it's just who I am.
Newbies..oldbie, they matter. The older players are obviously treated with a higher level of respect and are far more well known than someone called Bob9070953 that has been playing for 3 minutes to someone like Lord Chimp, Antago, SuperNick who has been playing for yonks.
The newer players than claim to have been playing since the beginning make it blatently obvious by saying 'AWW I STARTED IN ZO BUT LEFT AND CAME BACK TODAY' or something similarly stupid. Being a 'newbie' or an 'oldbie' is completely different. When we started were the good days of graal, we're just the decendants of the old and preferred graal, back in the day of the bottle, dash attack, classic guild to guild wars.
I don't think you should wonder why the newer players want to known as oldbies, it is obvious, what we should be asking is why they bother with the pithy excuses they make and why they must degrade themselves by making lies to be cool to the graal community.
