Forum N00b

A n00b is leetspeek for "noob" that comes from the word "newbie" or "newcomer".

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, bumping threads, not listening to advice, creating pointless threads, creating tournaments when you are very new to the forum, lacking common sense/social skills, or really horrible bot building skill or any mixture of these. Also often a Forum Arsonist, Vet Whacker or Drama Queen, though not all forum arsonists/drama queens are noobs.

Contrarly to newb, n00b is an offensive term/insult.

It is told that you can kill n00bs most effectively through flaming. Well known n00bs are Sparkey98 and LRA2

Often the target of n00b whacking.
