A n00b is leetspeek for "noob" that comes from the word "newbie".
The n00b is a newbie, but unlike the Normie, fails the test of Forum Introduction, possibly due to low quality posts, bad English, boasting, being a Forum Arsonist, or just lacking common sense/social skills, or really horrible bot building skill.
Contrarly to newb, n00b is an offensive term/insult.
It is told that you can only kill n00bs by flaming. The ultra-n00b, however, known as Zero absolute, is apparently immune to the treatment. Only snappy remarks about his hair looking emo can make him cease.
Often the target of n00b whacking.
