Newbieness?

[Lucianus]

If I were you people I would scold the kids back with something they can't really get what it is but can feel the power or threat within my words and make them cry for their mommy. X)

 

[Herman]

Yeah, now that I'm really looking back on what I just posted I feel a little sad

Kinda just said I like making fun of 12yr. olds

I'm gonna stop playing DotA altogether, doesn't take much to hurt a 12yr old, I s'pose I would feel proud if I made another 15yr. cry

I feel no remorse for kids who get insulted via the internet, as they really shouldn't care, its just text... a person millions of miles away is shooting text via a little box you call the computer screen

If you play for hours like me, and then stare at the keyboard a bit, then realize all you have been doing is constanly looking up and down on a screen, imagine what you would look like if somebody video taped you, and then made the computer monitors' screen black, how wasteful you would look

sh*t I can't stay on topic at all ><

 

[Lucianus]

So buddy. Let's go out and take a cup of coffee at our nearest cafe. =w=

Hehe, nah I'm gonna head to bed soon, I'm curious to see how many more posts there are of ppl who wanna put their 2 cents in about the difference between 'noob' and 'newb'

 

[Lucianus]

Hava sweet dream then. =)

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Does anyone noticed that Herman is the only defendant?

 

[Ralle]

To me a noob is a guy who wants other people to do what he wants to accomplish. A guy who has a built-in filter in his eye that hides search buttons and tutorials. A guy who doesn't want to know how it's done, he only want to know when YOU have finnished doing the job he wants accomplished.
A newbie is a guy with no knowledge who simply wants to learn.

Darkholme, you are not a noob. You are a polite valuable member of the hive.

ya thats a good defention

 

[Hawkwing]

Of course it is good. When it comes from Ralle it is always good.

 

[DiscipleOfLife]

For Example, I love insulting the DotA whores (here meaning annoying fucks who call you dumbass everytime you die) simply by calling them either
A) your a fucking retard
B) your a fucking loser

It is just as natural for you to be called a dumbass by your allies when you feed, as it is for you to call them retards afterwards. Perhaps you should look at this issue from the annoying fucks' perspective, because imo you're no better than them.

I like Ralle's def'n the best. cause following his definition, I'm beither a newbie or a noob.

I also didn't think anyone actually 'appreciated' my being at hive. Thanks Ralle!

 

[Herman]

Hmm

You are not wrong in the respect that I am no better, but I play the game to play, not bitch about somebody fucking up, I am generally for the most part defensive, but yeah I mess with them purely out of a spirit of smite and hatred towards DotA and their high-horsed society ( I wish that emoticon had a knife)

 

[Hakeem]

Those kids are the ones I speak of that are mentally weak (the ones that bother other players far more excessively than is necessary)

I'm not sure if I made that clear ><

Came across loud and clear over here.

 

[LiOneSS]

 

[Darkholme]

Wow. That is the most politically incorrect thing I have ever seen on hive. Congratulations, and it comes from Hive's only girl too.

I mean, it's funny, just offensive to so many people.

 

[brad.dude03]

Actually, Lioness is one of several girl users, including Werewulf, Syleona, Turtles and Iristle.

And it's only offensive to those who are affected in some way or another by the disabled, which many aren't.

And it has a point, nom matter how politically incorrect, but this is besides the point.

It has nothing at all to do with this thread, as no one is arguing. That's when it's used, to break up an arguement. There is no arguement here.

I had no idea those other users were female. Their names didn't give it away, and I don't think I have yet encountered 2 of the ones whose names Do give it away. Wow!

And yeah, I meant it would be offensive to the same people you listed. many aren't, but many are, too.

and about the usage. yeah this isnt the place to put that cause we weren't arguing.

 

[TheDivineBoss]

You are a newb when it's to tracking girls on the internet

 

[Darkholme]

You are a newb when it's to tracking girls on the internet

Apparently I am. Oh well, it could be worse.

 

[brad.dude03]

Better than being a creepy stalker like you.

 

[Naze]

Does Turtles and Syleona are still around? I didn't knew that. I thought they letf the Hive some time ago....

And it's only offensive to those who are affected in some way or another by the disabled, which many aren't.

Well, it can also be offensive to people who have parents with some kind of deficiency, which is not my situation.




_______________

As Darkholme asked at the 1st post, "does your lack of skills with things evolved to Warcraft makes you noob?"

Well, as Ralle already answered what is necessarily to e noob, I'll agree with him and I'll also say that your Warcraft abilities sometimes has nothing to do with your rep. We have lot' of examples here. Normally, reputation is related with sympathy and relationship skills. We are an example. You surely know much more things then me in Warcraft, since I don't spend too much time with it. I don't have any interest with skinning and other stuff because of that. But see, you have less rep then me! I think I earned some rep in the vacation, by being active...

But reputation has lost it's main meaning: To be reputation.Now people are using reputation as a "scrap system". Like, they are giving reputation to say "Hi Jeff! I'm going to the party tomorrow, wanna go with me?". Now, reputation doesn't mean nothing.

"But see, you have less rep then me! I think I earned some rep in the vacation, by being active..."

Wrong claim, his rep outnumbers yours by 3 xD
PWNT

 

[Naze]

Oh God, he just had 60 rep saturday! =O

I have to agree: PWNT.

 

[~Void~]

I considered myself a veteran of the Hive when I got my blue gem and 1000 posts. To me that basically signifies you have been here for a while and know your way around the rules and the other members. I don't submit anything really, except my tutorial, but I make terrain, that's what I do. I don't ever see myself making more than a few textures or models. And if I do they will probably be something to put in my terrains.

As for the whole "newb" thing, well I think a newb is someone who comes to the hive and asks for more help than he or she gives. As for myself, I don't really ask for much of anything and sadly I don't really give as much as I would like. In all hypocrisy, I think the "noobs" of the hive are those who don't offer anything and just spam the forums. Or those who ask for naruto spell pax

including Werewulf, Syleona, Turtles and Iristle.

Four members out of thousands. WC3 is not much of a thing for most girls, the only places I see them are on DotA games and the occasional RP. I guess orcs and zombies are more of a guy's thing, either that or all the girls that play(ed) WC3 moved on to WoW.

 

[Herman]

Eh, I don't know about you guys, but generally I don't know that many attractive women on wc3 or the internet, then again I haven't been on the prowl for a while

 

[HappyTauren]

You've also forgotten zana kix to the list.

 

[TheDivineBoss]

I'm probally the B.net pimp because I know 7 girls on B.net :evil:

 

[Jaakko]

Rep here isn't the measurement of skills. Some people get rep for helping others etc.

That is the most politically incorrect thing I have ever seen on hive.

Yeah lol.

A guy who has a built-in filter in his eye that hides search buttons and tutorials.

lol

 

[brad.dude03]

I never said they were attractive, I just said they were female xD

 

[Darkholme]

yeah I got 18 rep since saturday. mostly because of my drawing in elenai's comp (its a wip, but i got like 10 rep for the wip. lol) then ralle repped me once, I'm sure that helped. and a couple for posts in general. I went from 1 rep to 78 since like November.

I guess its like how I went from 10 posts to 610 in the same amount of time. I practically live here.

 

[Naze]

1 rep point in november, and you registered in 2005?

wow...

that's a lot of time offline...

 

[~Void~]

I know in real life one girl who plays WoW (my friend's ex). And two guys. I would make three but I don't play anymore.

 

[Naze]

I know in real like something like 10 girls who plays this stuff.

But girls who mod.....

I've never seen anyone.

 

[Herman]

I never said they were attractive, I just said they were female xD

Hahaha



OMGZORZ TEHR IS A 15CHAR LIMZROZ, ROXZORZ ROFLMAO <--- noob(zorz)

I actually think the quote covers it

 

[Anduril]

People usually find me guilty of Noobitude because of questions I ask that I should know the answer to but don't. It's annoying; (semicolon) no one was born knowing all the answers (except Ralle), so why can't I ask?

 

[HappyTauren]

I learned most of things myself, and via tutorails. You have right to silence.

 

[Herman]

Silence is golden

 

[Anduril]

Duct tape works just as well, and it's silver...

 

[~Void~]

I hate using tutorials and therefore never read them. I enjoy to figure stuff out for myself with maybe a few guides on the basic mechanics of the program.

I never read any terrain tutorials except to critique them and I think that was beneficial to me because it gave me my own style. I did pick some things up from other terrainers though.

 

[Gilles]

This is a prime example of newbiness IMO. No offense to the creator. I realize most people new to these forums post like they are at some naruto site.

 

[Herman]

Duct tape works just as well, and it's silver...

I prefer shoving golden bricks down their throats

Yeah, thats a pretty good example, there are some threads by noobs where they have caps lock on, text as if they have just been hit in the head by a car, and never even post back after you answered them with a clear, logical response

 

[Anduril]

Whut do yuu meen? Mi tixt es alweys cleen und semple 2 reed........

 

[Thandien]

One thing which defines "noobishness" in my opinion is the need for instant gratification. Hard work and time invested are not things often seen in the works of noobs. Their (so-called) projects are mostly done on a whim, hardly ever get completed and probably involve the hard work of others, not them.

I am not a noob (although some people on Battle.net may furiously claim otherwise), but I happily proclaim myself a newbie. While I don't possess an assortment of great skills, I am eager to learn.

 

[Anduril]

Which is a very good thing, instead of expecting people to tell you everything and not contributing

 

[TheDivineBoss]

And this is still in the Site Discussion, I am suprised.

 

[Thandien]

Yes, it is strange. This topic seems to be best suited for the "Off Topic" section.

 

[Darkholme]

Yes, it is strange. This topic seems to be best suited for the "Off Topic" section.

it started out more on topic... looking for a clear definition of what is a noob, is a newb, what the differenc is, and whats neither. but after that was answered the thread just dragged on and got Off topic.

it should have just died.
