N00b whacking, or flaming, is a practice common in forums that includes easily criticizing n00bs through things like irony ("yeah Bladez you're a good bot builder" -Pyscolone to Bladez-) or harsh critic ("you suck at stock, period" -Sage to System32-).
There are several classes of n00b whackers:
- Pure or Major n00b whackers: Pyscolone, InfiniteInertia, Naryar
- Partial or Minor n00b whackers: Sage , System32, Ribbs, Scrap Daddy
- Wannabe n00b whackers: tankcat, Sparkey98
Obviously enough, n00b whacking can lead to Flame wars.
