It's not necessarily a bad word but tends to have a negative connotation

Fact: People always feel the need to have superiority over others. It's why competition exists.

Those who can't achieve superiority in real life will do it through other windows of opportunity, such as said game. Just remember, when they do that, they are the unimaginative ones that need to feel good about themselves. So in short, you did them a favor and boosted their low self esteem.

Join a good guild, they may call you a noob, but it will be in good fun, and afterwards they will help you learn. Noob is a weird word.... It can be used in jest between friends, or as insult between strangers.

"Noob" originally means a new player, but 80% of the time or more it's just an insult people throw at each other. Like unskilled, or cheap, or annoying, etc. You're pretty much asking everyone in PL to get some self-control, and I agree! But that's natural in the world, and the solution is not in the form of some man-made idea, especially something written on a game-forum. If you want to fix people, you'll have to go a lot deeper, beyond what is usually capable in a video game atmosphere. :)

I've never had anyone call me a noob but I tend to hear it used alot as an insult I'm just saying why not help those people learn (if they are willing) I try to help others when I see the chance I would want someone to lend me a helping had if I started a new game just like people did when I started pl........

Don't let what people say get to your head bro :), there's always heaps-o people that will try to bring others down just for their satisfaction.
(they probably never got hugged as a kid)
Just ignore them, literally. hit that ignore button. and leggo. If they cant play fair, thats their issue. let them waste their time calling out others
dont let them waste yours.

I call the ignore button, the 'no-drama-button'. Don't be afraid to press it. if people annoy you, just ignore them. There's no point of taking things personal IMO :)

HUH????

The general gist, I think was, "I have no problems with beginners starting out and asking questions. It's the ones you try to explain things to (like don't shoot the cans after the first time in Roach) that don't listen and get the group wiped (sometimes more than once) that are the true "noobs". Sorry if I'm misunderstanding you Sun Light.

Learn the intricacies of the game and no one will call you that. I've never been called a noob in my entire PL experience because I take time to read the forums and post questions if there was something I didn't know. Sometimes people get pissed when you get obviously clueless people charging at bandit king and queen when others are luring, or ignoring the totem when its healing, running into people when you have fever. To me that's unprofessional and not doing your homework which inconveniences others.

I would never do that to others.

Ya bro, what everyone else said. Noob like already said originally means new player. I have noticed in almost every mmo that the word noob is used as a rude remark. Kind of like hahaha, your a loser. Over the years I'm sure the word noob was used as the original definition but as most things one time or another they are corrupted and become used in different ways. Does that mean it should effect you? Na, just let it go, turn the opposite way, press ignore, and enjoy your time on pocket legends. :)

Sorry I gotta disagree bro. If someone calls you a noob 9 out of10 times you're doing something wrong. Ignoring it is just plain wrong. I would find out from people what exactly I did to warrant being called a noob and become better from that experience. People get stronger by learning from mistakes. Only animals like ostriches pretend there is no problem by burying their heads in the sand.

Now don't get me wrong, you have a great point. But, I have played Runescape for 9 years I recently quit, and some people called me a noob, and I was level 126. So yes sometimes you deserve it, sometimes you don't, but in the end I guess you never know until you ask.

antonium and others...
my point is noobs is not ppl that ask silly question.
we dont call a noob and dont try to help them.
we r try to help them!!! but they just dont listen.... they think they r smart and they stay noob lol
and how moch u try... u dont get how they thinking lol
that is the real noob
cos honestly, im helping ppl... but if they dont listen? well.. thats sad.
and the next day u can see the noob doing same mistake.

I don't tend to call people a noob unless they do noob things. Spawn killers, people who join a game and know it's 1v1 then start rushing anyways. But i've been called a noob plenty of times in this game and others. It's just a silly word.
