Everyone = noob

**Capernicus** · 06-03-2009 04:31 PM

Well, at one time we were. Whether you were a n00b or a noob, it makes all the difference. I can honestly say that I was the biggest n00b ever when I first joined in '05. This was my first forum, so I didn't know exactly how to behave (or that I couldn't say swear words >.<).

So anyway, This is a thread about any n00bishness that you remember. If you go to your profile and click on "All posts made by ______" then you can see the last 500 posts you made. Now, if your n00bishness was less than 500 posts ago, then use that. If not, you may want to check your rep archive in the User CP.

The most n00bish stuff I found in my last 500 posts (which are more about lolz when I was bored than being n00bish):

The cell phones of Japan

o ur rite those fones wil make u so fresh congrats man im jealous

yea totaly sic gangsta i bet all da hos be tripin all up on ur gril if you get wit one of dem i liek da black one cuz dem be the kind pimps be got

Alright, stop what you're doing

You look funny, and yo you're makin' money, see. [2 points]

Spoiler:
This thread is loopid.

What I found when checking neg rep archive >.<:

Question about swearing

Ooooooooh, I love your sig! I'm not sure if you can, I think so but I'm not 100%. A mod will probably post soon.

What's Your Dirty Little Secret #2

hahaha Me too!

The rest are stupid reps. oO I wish I had better examples of my great n00bishness, but this is all I was bad repped for. lol

Anyway, share!

This is from 2002. That's right before the cretaceous era started. I must have been 12 or 13 years old.

Here's the thread by the way: http://web.archive.org/web/200208020...&threadid=3514

It's so long time ago, All your base was new and awesome.

**Gero50** · 06-03-2009 04:44 PM

Well one of the n00bish things I did back when I was a begainer was. use improper usage of language. The stuff like u and r rather then you and are. But other then that the only other thing is posting in the wrong forum. But these apply to things I did a while ago on a different site.

**SigmaSD** · 06-03-2009 04:47 PM

I posted so many times in the "I'm so manly threads" that I can't possibly look for all of them without getting a headache. But I said some pretty stupid things in there.

That and complaining about neg rep that I deserved. Oh to be "noob" again.

Oh and I didn't know how to start new threads, so I sometimes began a thread within a thread. *facepalm*

Wow I clicked on that link and I felt like I was in the 80's or something. That's way old. My computer wasn't even assembled back then.

Edit: Here's the link the the manly thread, if anyone wants to see my noobishness. http://www.animeforum.com/showthread...ighlight=manly

**-akichan-** · 06-03-2009 04:50 PM

Hm...I don't quite remember, but there's one thing I remember doing, was that I used to fight with a mod was bullying my boyfriend xD She's no longer a mod now, but she was really pissing me off with the way she talks and how she made people feel bad.

And believe it or not, I remember I used to be a quite popular sig maker back then. I joined AF because of my boyfriend. And he would always show me his signatures asking me for opinions. When I joined the forum, I made my own and first signature. For the first page of 10 reputations were complimenting my signature, and bunch and bunch of people sending me requests, and lasted for almost half year long. I used to show off so much that I think I was the best sig maker because of how much people admired me, which attracted so many haters giving me attitudes. People started war on me, and we were fighting across the whole site. I believe those active members back in 2006 would remember.

Now I understand that haters like them doesn't deserve attention, so I would just ignore them.

And I used to type stupid. I used to type slang spelling such like "you" to "yoo" and "like" to "lyke".

I'm not going to search for my old old old posts, because it'd just waste my time xD Anyway, I didn't do quite much noobie stuff. People did notice that I was a new member, but I was barely called "noob".

**JIMBO.** · 06-03-2009 04:51 PM

its in the past leave it in the past.

**Señor Nobody** · 06-03-2009 04:55 PM

I used to argue with people way over my league and complained about neg reps I deserved (is idiot).

Oh, and i used to tyep liek thes. I was a giant n00b.

EDIT: I also thought Naruto was srs bsns.

There is no sarcasm in this post: My mind has been blown. So Eris was once Akito-senpai from Japan at one point.

My noobish posts are like this: Animu, animu, animu, animu. Now it's animu, debate, anger, angst, animu. I also cared alot about reputation. I really only care about the message inside.

**Storm Strife** · 06-03-2009 05:25 PM

I was never a n00b. I was a newb, but not a n00b.

I don't get the reference. I don't speak Pokemon. Please translate to Star Trek, Hitchhiker's guide, Doctor Who or some other nerd dialect I can comprehend. Or English. What'evah.

There is no reference. It's just the most Japanese name I could come up with on the spot.

**sa5m** · 06-03-2009 05:32 PM

This is the last post I have for my latest 500 posts:

I'm not a vegetarian... I'm the opposite... like a... meatatarian... O.o

in the thread, Your Mommy Kills Animals.

I guess it's not too nooby? I think I was just really annoying back then. Hehe.

Eudial is a flamethrower wielding Sailor Moon villain. I unconditionally approve of anyone who shoots fire at Sailor Moon.

This is indeed not Eris. "AnimeOtaku(Insert Absurd Number Here) finally hacked your account, ey Eris? Speaking in anime has had me mind blown.

I also would like to see what the Super Admins posts looked like when they first joined. I'm sure they were teens at that point.

Nope. Like any self respecting 12 year old in 2002, I watched Sailor Moon. I've since repressed most of it, and not really watched Anime since, heckling those who do.

**Miss Moonlight** · 06-03-2009 06:37 PM

Well, back in 2006 when I first joined, I got into alot of arguments and managed to get bad repped by almost every mod and admin in existence here ... I was also banned twice (first deservingly for arguing, and then banned again for another strange mixup.). o.o

I can't seem to find my posts from 2006, though.

**Cobra Commander** · 06-03-2009 07:07 PM

I don't know. I don't think of myself as a noob. Although, I have less than 500 posts. Everyone does stupid stuff once in a while.

Anyway, the worst so far was starting a thread in the wrong forum on my first day, which I took care of and got a mod to delete it. The first week, I had a Steven Seagal picture that I got all kinds of props for, but some people didn't like, so I took it down. And lastly, I got negged for posting in someone else's thread because the thread was against the rules. Can't say I really care about that one, though.

**Memento Mori** · 06-03-2009 07:10 PM

I spammed. Alot. You have no clue.

I think in the Band Name Game once, I posted "Oh, this looks fun!"

But had no answer.

That was back in 2007?

**Perpetual Specter** · 06-03-2009 10:33 PM

I actually left the majority of my noob ways, before joining AF. I was awful. I spent most of my e-time before joining AF trolling other forums, which there were several of. --

I got into arguments with staff quite a few times, flooded the forums, flamed, etc. I also intentionally spammed, cursed, and flooded posts with cursing, CAPS, etc--breaking several of those forums' rules in one post or a series of many posts in a big stack/s(not only double or triple-posting, but deca-posting and more). With a few of the forums, I took more time to get used to the forum and get familiar with the users, then went off all the sudden--pretty much deceive the forum and its users.

And with all this, I had a great deal of bans placed on me of course. I tried to get pull up some of those forums I posted in with the Way Back Machine, but it seems there's no archived pages of the ones I remember. I may just be putting the wrong URLs though too. It's been a looong time, since then.

**Bulf** · 06-03-2009 10:43 PM

I remember being a chat noob about 2 years ago....I always came in just to be banned. Then Ace decided to ban me for 2 weeks, and after that I left most of my noob ways....Thanks Ace :Ð

If you're 22 now, and that post was in 2002, I don't think you were that young, since 2002 wasn't 10 years ago. Nice try at excusing your st00pid n00bishness, there.
