A. INTRO

I. What is this? This guide is designed to give you a better understanding of what a noob is, how to recognize them, some details about them, and how to avoid or get rid of them. It mostly applies to online forums, which are the main targets of migrating noobs.

II. Defining 'Noob' Contrary to the belief of many, a noob/n00b and a newbie / newb are not the same thing. Newbs are those who are new to some task* and are very beginner at it, possibly a little overconfident about it, but they are willing to learn and fix their errors to move out of that stage. n00bs , on the other hand, know little and have no will to learn any more. They expect people to do the work for them and then expect to get praised about it, and make up a unique species of their own. It is the latter we will study in this guide so that the re

aspirant rage is a buildup of these factors

1) frustration: lack of ability to shoot down the first kill. They can see on the screen so and so scoring kill after kill with ease while they themselves, at best get shot down. This leads them to wonder if perhaps its because of the plane or their phone or some sort of hacking going on that they are not privvy to.

2) being ignored: I heard an ace in a game say 'one against six'. even though the room view showed their was an aspirant on their side. psychologically traumatizing.

3) spawnkilling: the above two combined with excessive spawnkilling leads them to erroneously believe that many of the aces and super aces gathered up kills thru unjust spawnkilling and therefore should not be respected.

These feelings precipitate into anger and are exhibited by excessive use of profanity as a way to vent the frustration.

If we all, pitch in, it is possible to reduce the incidents of aspirant rage to a bare minimum. However, we will then lose the quality comedy.

this is how i fly !!! :)

I think aspirants would do better if they were noticed a little more.....back when i was new....i was treated like dirt on the most part.....alot of cocky players to...i can remember them as if it were yesterday....will not mention names though...they know who they are..lolol....
True you have to earn respect....not sure if i earned it yet....thats why i work with aspirants a little more than others do......

Remember we were once aspirants

every so often when I notice a lot of aspirants come into a game I will shout out " welcome aspirants!"

They never seem to take it well ...

heres some basic pointers that I wish as an aspirant someone had told me earlier.

We can help them overcome the frustration that sometimes leads to giving up on the game (as I had almost done)

by giving them some basic facts



1)drop bomb for double speed

2) shoot for the little plane underneath the rank symbol through the smaller circle

It would be nice if Zuperman could add these instructions into the practice modes

this is how i fly !!! :)

We were all new once. Better? :)

When were ranks added?

If it's an all noob game I'm in, I kinda just fly around and give pointers to people. I'm always happy to answer questions, but if I'm buzy with Jane and Oneball, I can't afford to offer information. I'll die too quick. ;)
