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.

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

It is told that you can kill n00bs most effectively through 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.
