Why do people call you newbie

Scorpz · #1 03-05-2002, 03:05 PM

If you are getting killed and you pause then start calling the pker a n00b. I think that makes you n00b

Why would that change the length of time you've been playing? Does the P-button have strange time dilation abilities?

If you already killed the person twice, when they STARTED the fight. Then you pause when you're about to die and laugh at them, I think that's funny.

I have done it a lot of times.. many people that I have done it to call me a "n00b" or talk sh*t to me trying to get me to unpause so they can kill me. It's kind of pathetic.

It's like, the guy comes up and hits you in the back while you're standing there (with a fireball) you own him two or three times, in which he manages to get a couple hits in, then you pause, and he calls you a newbie?

I think that if you are able to get several kills on one person without being killed once, then you're definitely not a newbie.

i think skill of fighting in an online game shouldnt divide 'newbies' from 'oldbies', but thats just me

I think it doesn't add to online time when you're paused. ;P

Contradiction! If it's just a game then it doesn't matter if you look bad, hmm?

NeoNPL · #8 03-05-2002, 09:37 PM

they dont call me n00b,Newbie,Newb or any other pet names for people new to graal.

Well except one guy on enigma, but his name was "SSJ GOKU {Level 67 super saiyan} [Will kick anyone in the butt who comes near me]"

so he doesnt count

People call me "newbie" and "n00b" all the time. I agree with them and say "Yeah, I just started playing yesterday.

("

Same with me... just because I always use the Fung Si Yan outfit

I don´t know... but they usually don´t really pay attention to your stats or stuff before they call you a newbie... (I know stats don´t mean anything but oh well).

I guess calling someone a newbie can be different for different people, some call you a newbie if your new, some calls you a newbie if you use NPCs, some calls you a newbie if you attack people who have just started... and so on O.o!

I personally think newbies is people who have just started playing the game and lamers is the people who pause, heals, use horses to fight, uses NPCs and so on ^_^

ArchOwl · #12 03-06-2002, 03:01 AM

i laugh when some person calls me a noob and they have lesser hours.

I respond with:

Pronounce it. NEW-BEE. As in someone that is new. Look at my hours, and look at yours. See the difference? That would make you the newbie.

then they respond with something like "u r such a retard fukn unpause you *** homo"

vovavziggy · #13 03-06-2002, 03:04 AM

It's strange that whenever you use other weapons while PK'ing, people also respond in a negative way. What's the purpose of having them if you don't use them...

Lyndzey · #14 03-06-2002, 05:03 AM

Anyone who has not played for over 3 years is a newbie in my eyes.

Valder · #15 03-06-2002, 05:07 AM

Bah, Everyone calls everyone else a n00b.

I think that items exept the sword were made so you cna be able to kill gold namers... and also they may be made so people who can´t get kills in any other ways need someway to get up their stats...

Or... just because someone likes scripting them?! O.o!

Thats how I see it, I was killing someone and then they paused and called me a newbie, I will start to take ss of it and show you how much a graal player does it.

I had been bread baking for an hour and was down to my last half heart, don't I have every right to pause then?

I think there are varying degrees of it.

LiVeToDiE · #25 03-06-2002, 09:13 AM

Haha that crazy eyed noob was funny.

P-a-W-n · #26 03-06-2002, 09:35 AM

Newbie wasnt a word used as often as I've recently seen it infact I didnt see it as derogitory untill I started playing 2k1 about 6 months ago.

And Lyndzey you say 3 years and your not a newbie? All a newbie is, is someone new to the game. Im pretty sure someone playing for 2 years or even 1 year grasps the concept as well as someone with your experience, And say I've been on graal longer than you does that make you a newbie?

SabreKnot · #27 03-06-2002, 09:38 AM

delaet noob.

scottman5587 · #28 03-06-2002, 09:46 AM

I think a n00b is just someone new to the server but people have twisted what it really means.

Scorpz · #29 03-06-2002, 03:38 PM

n00b = Someone that pauses when your about to kill them, Also a npc user, (I dont mind npcs why make them if you cannot use them)

Newbie = Some new to the game
