I'm sure you walk around hearing people saying the word, noob, I hate that word. Did you know: That some people think noobs are dumb people. It's a common misunderstanding. I don't think people should make fun of people at most level 12, because they were one at one point, even I was one (so cute when I was just a little apprentice theurgist), so I think the text chat should block the word, noob, because it's not correctly used, and I don't like it all!

I think when people call someone else 'noob' they are just trying to sound cool or tough or something like that when really they are just impressed or jealous but they don't wanna show it.

I have heard that word so many times especially in DS from grandmasters because they get riled up when the "noob" in the group ruins the spell then the GM starts cussing at the "noob" for ruining the big attack.

Well, I don't think it would take much effort just to block one word, from my personal experiences, it SHOULD be banned for good. While I was farming away, this grandmaster called me a noob, I got annoyed at first, but got over it. After the farming I got bored, so I went to the arena and joined a duel. Then again there he was, he started calling me "NOOB, NOOB HER, you NOOB!" And in the end my team won because of the storm lord I summoned. His chit chatter died down.

noob... just that word ticks me off. i hate that word its used in the wrong way the guys or gals who say it are just weird. noob should be taken off and people say say bad words in their own way. send people that work for w101 and see if you can find people who say those words and delete them just like noob :? people need to learn!

if noob and NO O Be get banned there still are many ways to say it like NOt O Book ect any way people say that cause they feel like what no fair! he cheated he used treasures ! he chained bolted ect that happens in pvp but not in pvp it means loser, stupid, ugly, pathetic, and you are the worst person i have ever seen. when it is supposed to mean Newb- a beginner on a online game that wishes to learn more.
NOOB-a beginner that wants to be the best but refuses to learn and lies saying i am the best i have a grand ect.

Thank you! someone finally got the meanings right.
Most ppl need to find out the meaning of words before they ues them!
So ppl should look up the meaning of "noob" and "newb" before using them.
And if you get called a "noob" who cares get over it a enjoy the game it's a wast of time to worry about it,and if it bother's you being called a "noob" then don't go out in the real world because you will not make it out there if you can't take a few bumps and bruses.

i agree with everyone who says no more word " noob " because grands call me a noob and it is very insulting, and besides, most new people HAVE grands now, well most of them, there are a few exceptions, like me, and the world would be better if grands would quit calling everyone noobs, and especially the legendaries out there shouldn't

Noob should NEVER be let in to PVP. If you beat a warlord they make it there job to call you a noob till you leave. Cause they are just miserable cause they lost to a lower rank. They call you noobs when you WON and I never did understand how that works. In other places people just get mad and call people noobs which i'm a little better about. But noob should be banned from the pvp arena.

Now i have read a lot of the coments and i want to say something about it. I was called a "noob" in WC to witch i replyed that it is "noobcity". Both of my kids play this game and reply that "Noobs are awesome". So, it hurt me when i was called a noob in DS, because i did belong there, but if you keep doing stuff that hinders gameplay, because you dont know how to play you deserve to be called a "Noob". I think that word has been used to much but you should just laugh it off. You know if you are or are not a "noob" and if you are a "true noob" and you should ask for pointers. Just dont think you gonna lvl up faster by going in to battles you are not ready for. Than i might call you a noob too. So, it does not hurt my kids and it wont hurt me no more, I have 5 lvl 50 and higher and one day i will have a balance wiz and i am sure i will be called a noob again. Some people are just inmature.

well the noob word is really use wrong, newb is the word for new players.
noob,is someone who dont know how to play knows how to play but thinks he/she know everything about the game,this is one of the many negative meanings of the word noob. look up the word noob and newb and see what the meaning really is.

people use noob as a insult just to get to you,dont let them,after all look at who is calling you a noob most likey they are the noob.

Since this forum has been degraded to whiney, sniveling, crying, children who think their ridiculous complaints matter, this is what I think:
I agree with those who say "get over it" when it comes to the whining about people being rude. If you don't like it, you probably are a noob/newb, and STILL need to get over it. Welcome to the internet :)
