 Okay, I need some definitions.  Is a newbie someone who ats like an idiot? Like someone who has been here for 3 months but still acts like a idiot a newbie?  Or is a person who is new like they have been here two days?  I was hoping someone would clear this up.

 Well, if I act like an idiot then I am an igonorant spammer, whereas if someone who just got here and has under two weeks' experience, and uses CAPS LOCK, and makes idiotic posts, would be considered a newbie. If anyone else (someone who never spams, sorry almost everybody) would likle toexplain in more detail, they're welcome to.

 It doesn't matter how long you have been on the ROC or anything like that. You could be on the ROC for 3 years, and if you still type, spell, act like you just arrived, then you are considered a newb. You could be on the ROC fort your first week, and you may act like you have been on forever.

Example. Van just got here, correct? He is not a newb, even though this is his second post. You know why? He acts, so far, like a good poster, limitted spelling errors, no spam, and actually makes sense in the post. He actually uses the "shift key" and I am glad for that.

To me, a ignorant spammer, and a newb are the same thing. You both act the same, and you can't tell the two apart. This is my 4th-5th year on the ROC, but, if I were to post worthless junk, spell terrible,spam, ect, then I would be a newb, even though I have experience under my belt, but, in posting I don't show it.

So, newb, ignorant spammer, all the same thing. I don't care how many posts someone has, or how long they have been posting. It is what is in your posts that counts, not how many years you have been posting.

On this board there are a lot of newbs, even though they do not really know it, but you can just tell from they way they communicate. Even on this very page you can see a few newbs, spelling mistakes, no "shift key", ect.

Also, the all CAPS posts are really stupid, and you can see a newb right there. Also, the !!! really ticts people off. Sometimes you see 10s, 20s of them after a post. Newb right there.

I hope I cleared some stuff up, and well, you can usually spot a newb right away.

On another note, like my new avatar? ;)

 Hey, I use the triple/quadruple exclamation mark all of the time, but I'm not a newbie!!! I agree with most of that though.

And what is wrong with it?!?!?!  Well, I suppose it would be annoying if I did it all the time.

 Would I be considered a n00b or newb or newbie? Or can someone be all three. I use capitilizationa and grammer and spelling counts with me in my posts. So, could I get a clarification on what I am?

The correct version of that post would be:

 I personly would not class myself as a newbie , even if a  couple of people still class me as a newbie......~looks at Badrang and Fleetscut~
Oh and by the way, Calria try and find something to correct on this post.
