It's Crossfire, get over it. And to answer your question.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=noob
I've never read the definition of the word "Noob" until now. I was very surprised how in depth it really took the word and how many examples it gave. I definitely laughed and learned something. Good job Demonitee for the link -
Now I am like a big noob , sitting in front of your text . It`s sooooo true what you say here and really I don`t see any reply for that .Pandupkins wrote: »Explain me something, because I don't get it. If I have a good gun (like Scar Light, M12s, DSR, AK-47, Steyr Aug, XM8, even M4A1) -> people call me noob because I kill them. If I don't play with a good gun -> I don't kill. If I don't kill -> I die. If I don't kill and die -> I got stats like 0:10. If I'm the worst player in the team -> my team wants to kick me to get better one AND they call me noob. So what? Killing is for noobs and not killing is also for noobs? So playing CF is for noobs? But wait, there is more. If I camp and kill -> I'm a "noob". If I rush and kill -> I'm a "noob". If I snipe and kill -> I'm a "noob". If I spray and kill -> I'm a "noob". "Oh, you just have to play normal, like everyone does!" - What do you mean by "normal"? Everyone does at least one of these things and everyone calls anyone "noob". That's all? No! I even have heard "ZOMG! NavySeals/STAR/SIA/GSG-9/SPOP NOOB, KIK PLZ!!". What's the problem? It's just skins, man, relax. So I started playing knife matches to not hear things like "M12s NOOB! KIK PLZ". So I started to listening to things like "KATANA/SHOVEL/AXE/KUKRI NOOB! KIK PLZ!". Nothing has changed? Nope. Now, left-click is also for "ZOMG SLASHER NOOBS". Wait for a moment - killing is for noobs again? Yes. But there is another thing. "Ganger noob". WHAT!? For example, my team (8 players) kills 3 of 8 players of the opposite team. They call us "noobs" and leave. So it's 5 vs 8 now. There are more of us so we kill 4 of 5 players in next round. The only one left calls us "Ganger noobs". What's the problem again? Your team is made of weak players, so they quit or die. It's our fault or something?
Explain me, please, because I don't get it.
#edit - I guess it may be wrong forum, but I didn't find any Philosophy Forum
OH wait , I got an answer . " welcome to CF`s hell ":D -
Someone who kicks a legit player for being a "hack", also for them being better than you. A person who is below average at something but insists on talking crap to those better for any reason. A person who trashes someone's name because they have zp items/weapons, low ping, certian clan, whos a "try hard" when really everyone tries. A person who trolls the forums, and doesn't even play said game or is just horrible and hides here. I'm sure im missing a few things but for right now thats what I consider to be a noob in this game. Oh and someone who gets on another account hiding there true identity and rages on people they dislike knowing they wont know who they really are. That my people is a person showing how scared of you they really are.

Noob and newb originally started in Ultima Online, the FIRST MMO EVER.
At that time newb or newbie meant a new player that just started.
Noob on the other hand meant a player that refused to learn how to play and annoyed other players around them usually by asking for free stuff.
It wasn't in till Runescape that the word changed.
The high number of lazy players in the game expecting to get everything for free and easily were being called noob all the time by the experienced players who worked hard for what they got.
Eventually these masses started using the word to insult everyone because they been insulted by it all the time. (Keep in mind that nearly none of them did any research on what it meant). With so many players using it as a definition-less insult changed it into a definition-less insult. And spread to other MMO's and online games.
Over time newb and noob merged to mean the same thing. -

Newb= anyone from South America, or anyone who drops their gun to try to stab a ghost and fails at it. -

Nub is a recent word. I believe it is just a shortened version of Noob but I could be wrong about that. -

I'm totally with this dude. So many dumb @ss out there just call you noob for no reason. The only way the shut them up is to play with the most basic character, M16 and a knife, and you can't camp, can't rush and you're supposed to nade urself after killing a person. -

Gun part:
Scar light and m12 are op weapons.Because here is situation normaly when you shoot from gun,accuracy is getting low.
Statistic shows that every gun on cf reduces the damage.
Lets say example m4a1 each time your accuracy on that weapon is lower less damage you deal and you must fire more bullets.
For scar light that is not happening.Scar light even when you shoot when its almost broken it still does damage like you didnt even repair it.For m12 its like you use a kriss.So basicly those 2 weapons are noobish.
spray part:
Spraying is bad only in gm.Because when you spray with loud guns you cant hear ghost breath.Mostly people hate that.
knife part:
Ok since you hear that i will just mention some knifes that are op now:
kriss and blades from zm crate.
If they still keep cry that means they are newbs,
characters part:
There is no diference between gp and zp chars.Not even spop runs fast or others.So basicly every character is same except spop is abit slim.
Slashing and ganging:
Mostly people dont love it even i dont.Because you trully show your skill 1 on 1 2 on1 is abit hard but 3 on 1 is hard.so imagine a horde of slashers 1 vs 8 to kill you only.
You would also call a player slasher or gangers.Where is the spirit in it.trust me.You will understand it. -
Lets try to explain that.. There are many kids in this game who are frustrated for any reason, maybe because mom said "turn of that f**king computer!". They have to show all other player how unhappy they are. Means: you have a positive k/d, you re probably a hacker, because NOONE, and i repeat, NOONE!!! can be better is him! If your k/d is negative, then you re a complete noob.. Because hey, it s negative!!! or in your cause you re a noob because you used any weapon.. hey anyone told you this game is about loving each other and built up relationships which may end up in a house with a garden and 3 - 5 kids?
Srsly, we all have to live with it, just ignore stuff like that, and if you got kicked, enter another room. Don t get mad about it m8, it s not worth it!! i had to learn that too, there was a time, i thought about to quit cf because of all this ****ty votekicks..
sry for my bad english
