game is filled with newbs
snipedyougood
this game has more newbs than i have ever seen in any game i have ever played. They just ruin the whole game play, i wont even team with real ppl anymore. u invite someoen and they expect a full team in two minutes or they leave, or they die once and they leave, etc, no one knows how to play anymore.

Aaaahhhhhh..... too bad. Please whine somewhere else. <_<
What do you think you're going to accomplish with this topic? Will all the 'newbs' vanish? Will they become smart in an instant?

One thing nice about this game is you always have the option of playing with the henchmen. Play at your pace and you don't have to put up with anyone else.
And they don't have to put up with you.

Your describing "noobs" not "newbs". There is a difference, it is just that most people don't realize / comprehend that difference.
And yeah, I dislike the "noobish" people too. On the other hand I have nothing against "newbies", in fact they are quite often more fun to play with than many experienced players.

First off Newb\Noob is a racist term in my honest to God opinion. Second off EVERYONE starts off new to Guild Wars. Yes some people do dumb shit but many times they do it just to piss us off.

If you believe that, then my participation in this conversation is over. Perhaps it would be more clear if I say that I equate "noob" with "elitist". The only term I buy that describes a new player is "newbie" or "newb". All other "leet" like attempts at describing a new player equates to elitism as far as I'm concerned.
Noobs quit when they die. They can't handle DP. A newbie on the other hand won't. However it is possible to be in both new to the game (newbie) and act like a snob (noob).

While a Newb, is someone who is new, but not stupid, normally the only thing they do is ask people for help, and things like that... But there's a HUGE difference.

Funny, what you describe I have never had happen to me by and newbs, or noobs, or whatever you want to call them. But the "elite" players do that stuff all the time, because they have 2 lvl 20's or are r3 and know everything. So what you're trying to say is you are a god at this game then snipedyougood? That you have never messed up on any mission, quest or bonus? That you set out to do everything you accomplish on the first try. God I hate egotistical people like you. Its morons like you that think they are some "1337" players that make the game no fun. Not any of Anets nerfs, not the bots, not even the newbs. Players like you. So do the world a favor, STFU and go find another game to play.

I think "game is filled with assholes" is a better topic title... and making a topic to complain about them won't do anything.

Giga I know that but still I find the use of them so derogatory. When I played Mohaa Online the words never bugged me one iota until I started playing GW. Now whenever I hear both words it gets under my skin. I have had a few scrapes with people calling me Newb\Noob so yea I hate those 2 words. There is a difference between being a dumb shit on purpose and making mistakes.

The term no matter how you spell it means the same. And I agree it's a racist type of term or insult just like gay is. Those 2 terms and others are thrown around by ignorant people who can't express themselves intelligently. If someone is new, attempt to teach them or leave and find a better group or form your own. How easy is that? Too easy, but they can't seem to think of things like that since they are so worked up by nothing.

Why is it that these antagonists are usually the ones that just joined Guru today and have less than 10 posts?

I agree with Teklord.
Guy, why are you telling us this? It's a whine - and it is definetely not helping you.
Work with a guild or friends, and if you find people who have a good amount of sense, yay! If you're referring to new people to the game though (newbs) then I'm saying shut up: they're new, and you were new once too. Those people are trying to have fun and you're not going to ruin it for them. . .

i will say something which you may agree may not agree but most of thease people beeing noobs is mainly because all the runners are running them to palces so thease new people dont learn to fight dont learn there chars or there skills properly. i mean some people i played with didnt even know what a chest was and that was in tombs.

Anyways, in all seriousness, the guy IS probably right - at least when it comes to PUGs. I on the other hand prefer guildies. Oh yeah...way better than PUGs. Too bad you need a little foresight to pick a good guild that suits you. *sigh*. Well good luck there guy. Keep fighting the good fight.

To be quite honest sometimes I wanna kill me a few new players when they do stupid shit. I also only use Newb/Noob in Guildchat only. Yes I hate both words BUT never will I use them in public or call someone a Newb\Noob.
Kerrick??
Know your allies.
Join a guild.
Done.

Like stated before everyone starts off as a "newb". I don't have a problem with helping out people that have just got the game because they will someday be vets. Its just the people who just like to piss other people off is what pisses me off. Like people that leave just for the heck of it. Just something we will have to deal with complaining about it wont help.

noobs are in every single game you play, you just gotta get used to them, I mean having a game without noobs is like having a farm without fields or the "Christian hell" without evil

Or .... just leave the game and go play a friendly game of solitare.
