[off topic] 69 attack wootage.[/off topic]

I think people call new people noobs to give them a sense of power.

[Axel]

Thats worse? calling someone a noob because thier stupid it aint thier fault lol

Well not something like 'who is exactly rank 8,470', but something like 'where is Varrock'. If they don't know that, they're obviously a noob.

Newb = Newbie = new to the game and might need a bit of help which is nice to do.
Noob/n00b = Started off as a way to label people who act stupid or ask a pathetic question. It's now become some lame insult for people who don't have the imagination to create a decent insult which tries to make the person saying it of higher authority.
Nub0rz = Dan, Micky, Mitch, Jack, Shane etc :]].
