It doesn't help that whenever a newbie is warned for breaking a rule, they complain and say they are being picked on for being new.
"I'm new, I didn't realise"
No excuse. If you overdose on painkillers you don't say "I've never taken pills before, I didn't realise." you read the intrustions. Same goes here. If people think they are being picked on for being new, it's probably their own fault.

Well, people seem like they're being OK. Although there are some things that aren't in the rules, but are still frowned upon. Sometimes they don't know not to do those things.
And yeah, one of the most important Internet things is to learn is that newbie=/=n00b. I heard somewhere that one of the best ways to tell a newbie from a n00b is that if they do something wrong, and they apologise and say they'll try to do better, they're probably a newbie. However, if they lash out and call people names, and don't take the advice, they're probably a n00b.

Most of the newbies that I know and/or have seen, that lurked the forum for a week or two, have turned out to be great additions to the community. those who jump right it, and think that they are 1337 because they have a 25% full pokedex and/or a Mewtwo caught in an ultraball turn out to be n00bs.

Part of what makes SPPf nice is the fact that a postcount isn't shown, because in other forums, people are judged to be newbs based solely on this. Here, you're judged by what you post.
Here a person is a n00b for acting like one. A persons status is judged by their posting habits, and that's how it should be.
Here, you don't have to worry about being a n00b if you just follow the rules, which isn't a tall order.

Hypocrite (sp?) and judgemental seem to happen alot really, I am not that judgemental (Okay sometimes and sometimes a Hypocrite, aleast I can admit it), like if a newbie makes one small mistake he/she is automactially assumed as a Noob.

I am a newb (sort of) I joined in the summer holidays and I am only a Cascade trainer (I think) and I really enjoy these forums.My definition of a n00b is someone who teaches their Smeargle this moveset.
Smeargle
Black belt
Hyper beam
Hydro cannan(spelling)
Frenzy plant
Blast burn
This is a n00b's dream moveset. OR
Charizard
Mystic Water
Blast burn
Overheat
Fire blast
Ember
These are very annoying people but I would never tease them about it.
I was once battlind someone on netbattle an I was using Flareon against a Skarmory. The Skarmory was doing the Spikes/Roar combo so I thought that if I switched to meganium then the Skarmory would Roar me back to my Flareon because If there was anyone I did not want to have to battle a Skarmory with it would be my Meganium or I could have made my Meganium use ingrain. Leech seed and then my Meganium could keep on healing itself. Anyways, I was getting watched by about 8 spectators on Netbattle doing this and then i was ridiculed on netbattle for the next fortnight as the guy who switches a Meganium into a Skarmory. I really hated it and I would never want to do it to anyone else.

Just realised this is in the wrong forum too. Site Discussion is for Discussing the Site. Shouldn't be to hard to work out why Forum Discussions don't belong here.

actually, not all n00bs are new people. It certainly looks like it evolved from a term for newbies, majorities of which were likely rather annoying back in the day when 133t hacker slang was first being used. But nowadays, the term "n00b" refers to just about anyone who's an annoying poster, be it a rookie or veteran.
