NOOBS!!! NEWBIE!! NABS!!:
As you are playing in Mu online, you find a Jerk who suddenly kills you and calls you a noob. When you respawn you quickly change to your main character and pawn the person who called you noob and eventually you two will start to insult each other until someone reports someone to the authorities. No matter there similarities these words; NEWBIE and NOOB/NAB actually have different meanings.
Newbie defined according to the dictionary as a person who is new to an online community and whose online participation and interactions display a lack of skill or knowledge but are willing to learn/change to be a better gamer. A noob/nab on the other hand is an annoying player whether he is a beggar, whiner or a strong player who abuses his dominance by pawning weaker characters who has no interest at all to change to be a better gamer.
The words Newbie,Noobs,Nabs are just ordinary words but are powerful indeed. These words make people want to find cheats for them to be stronger. These cheats make people want to have all the most powerful of equipment to be stronger. These words make people want to scam each other to get the uper hand in the trade to be stronger. These Three words Drive people Extremely angry and mad that It drives the brute nature of the human beings out of them. In summart these words is one of the reason why players break the rules. Face the truth! NO BODY WANTS TO BE CALLED A NOOB/NEWBIE/NAB. Being part of the human nature being called a NOOB/NEWBIE/NAB drives us to be stronger may it be in the Fair path or the Cheaters path but usually more on the cheaters path.
In infinity MU you are called a NOOB/NEWBIE/NAB for a lot of reasons, some of these are:
1. You are a noob because someone with faster internet connection beats you
2. You are a noob because you kill a lowbie, but after which you get pawned by that lowbie's friend or main character.
3. You are a noob because you are not wearing an Uber set.
and much more but usually you get called a noob because the other player is either jealous of your strength or because he is more powerful than you.
But think of it, The person who calls you a noob was only getting revenge or payback because when he was a lowbie people called him a noob and to show to the whole server about his new found strength he too becomes a NOOB himself and call other people noobs. Then you who was the victim calls other people noob after you have become stronger as well. To cut it short If you want to be respected than show respect. Be honest, loyal and respectful and eventually you will be on your way to being a good player.
If you have comments or contradictions to my logic then feel free to post. =)
have a nice day
