Re: How To Speak N00b - A Guide
Yes, the "n00b" has evolved from a handful of people to an actual species. It's true that they're disguised as every other player, but isn't there a way to identify them BEFORE you have the misfortune of interacting with them? Yes, yes there is.

A good way to alert yourself and those around you of a possible n00b nearby is to look at their name. Many n00bs often choose the cliche, overused names based off of their favorite anime or game such and Dragonball Z, Yu-gi-OH, Inuyasha and the Final Fantasy series. These names are often horribly mispelled due to the fact that the original names are quickly taken.

Do note that this isn't a sure-fire way to identify a n00b before interacting with them. This is simply a good way to know to approach with caution as there is a high possibility that that player may be a part of the n00b species.

Heehee, I loved this guide on Alla, thank you for reposting it here! ^_^

Re: How To Speak N00b - A Guide
Oh wait, my post was just deleted.

I'd like to express the fact it is wrong to make fun of noobs. Making threads about them is not productive. You should try to help them. Calling them noobs on forums just makes you elitist.

PS:

Can a moderator express to me what rules I have been breaking to have my posts being deleted? I'd really like to know. However, it would be dreadful to be off-topic. So unless you don't fear getting ban, you might want to do it in with a PM..

This is the 7th post deleted so far.
