There's a distinct difference between a "Newb" and a "Noob".
Newbies generally don't know how to play a game, or don't know strategies/tactics, i.e the standing and sniping. They can get frustrated at a game, and this is where the line is drawn between Newbs and Noobs. Noobs, at this point, throw a fit, screaming, cursing, and making themselves look bad. Good newbs, usually people with a mature head, ask for help, try to organize team memebers to help them.
I was once playing on a Halo: CE server for about 6 hours. We had locked it after an hour, and the server evolved from Slayer to Democracy. We grew bored of the spamming, so we began to set rules. No snipers. Then no Banshees. Then no Scorpions.
We elected Councilpeople, who dictated what was allowed and what wasn't. We played grenade tag, hide and seek, we raced in the Warthogs, and we had all sorts of fun.
Playing with people with imagination and creativity is so much fun. I can't find many places like that now.
Also, I was playing Aliens vs. Predators 2 online, and the similar thing happened, only it was more of a monarchy. We were playing on the map "Quarantine" and the Queen took up residence in the bottom room. The drones patrolled the area, while the Humans and Predators duked it out around the rest of the map. The Humans and Predators signed a treaty, and launched an epic raid on the Alien coven. Rocketmen first, Heavy Preds next, Smartgunners, and Pulse Riflers followed. Assault Predators and Light Predators ripped everything else up. The Aliens actually beat us off. It was terrifying, in a way. It may have been helped by the fact that the Preds betrayed us.
Probably would've been better if they had waited for the Aliens to die off...
i would say i am a noob but i dont carry on and swear when i get killed i just play
until my computer died i was [DMT] Timmy
