I only ever notice if someone is new when they're acting like they want me to kill them. The rest of the time it's just this wave of people I vaguely recognize.

Newbie = New person.
n00b = New stupid person/retard.

I always thought n00bs were just dumb assess and they could be n00bs whether they were "new" or not. For example, a troll that has been around for a year would be a n00b, but not a newb. Right?

What. I thought "n00b" was reserved for people who are "new", and that ones that have been around for a while but are still retarded are called something else, like "fag" or "dumbass" or "douche bag".

Well, usually it's a new retard, but it can stay with them even if they've been around for awhile. Words like "fag," "dumbass," or "douche bag" are what describe a n00b, especially if they won't <b>"</b>stfu<b>"</b>.

Now that you mention it, I think I do remember something going on between them both.. or so I think. Maybe I'm psycing myself out to think that way because you just mentioned it. The plot thickens.

Oh well, if ya see him around AIM, tell him to come by so he can tell us about his adventures.. or whatever he's been up to.

Isambard stayed around awhile after I got here. He didn't leave for at least a few months. He was always a dick in the AIM chats, except that one time. He's always had me blocked though. :)

Remember when we fought those two emo kids, and NT got in a nerd war with one of them? I like to think we won that fight, but deep down, I feel we got lame'd.

I was looking for roms and discovered the detailed info on this site. I made my way to the forums only recently when I read on the front page that there was a link to an old Sonic manga in here. You guys seemed pretty cool, so I decided to hang around.

I've been around since the forum was established. I was just too shy to say anything. In many ways, I still am. I actually got here through that EGM thing... shameful, I know.

If you got here through the EGM thing then how have you been here since the forum was established?

Maybe he/she/it means the old Newsboard forum from back in the day. That's how I first "joined", in those glorious, password-free days of n00biousness.

I'm not sure of the details, but the new forum was just starting out when I came here, somewhere between the Nack profile and Berahbo man threads.

Yes those where the days, but it was pretty hard to find old discursions. In the other hand, people posted a lot more.

Why don’t make a poll about the worst Sega Archie character?

That's actually a good idea. Although I'm 99% certain that Sally would automatically win.

That French Skunk is even worse, though he gets better in the later issues.
