Accept your noobishness, most noobs don't know they're noobs.<br />2. If you have a question, that's why they have Google, if that fails you, try Bing. Still no results? THEN YOU CAN ASK (few exceptions)<br />3. Never laugh at your own jokes.<br />4. This is the internet, think before you post<br />5. Don't complain about a situation that you can solve. Complaining about a problem you can solve, but are too lazy to is spam. (few exceptions)<br />6. Most browsers have spell-check, if they don't, they have Google. (take the hint)<br />7. If you weren't alive before '90, and you run AOL as your browser, You fail. Ask somebody for a firefox download link<br />8. Assuming your not a noob is noobish<br />9. If you are racist, sexist, or ageist, you are a ignorant noob.<br />10. If you don't know who Gordon Freeman or Chuck Norris is, you are a noob<br />11. If you still don't know who Gord0n Freeman or Chuck Norris is, you should re-read #2.<br />12. Speaking in 1337 speak when not joking is a sign of noobishnes, same with internet speak.<br />13. Don't spam smileys<br />14. No, I will not follow your damn twitter page. GTFO.<br />15. Let trends die. No need killing them over and over.<br />16. Never talk about something that nobody around you isn't interested in. You can join another website for that.<br />17. Noob pride is like Social Awkwardness Pride, so stop being proud of it.<br />18. Having a billion posts still makes you a noob. Just a noob with too much free time.<br />19. http://www.explosm.net/comics/1989/<br />20. Respect the classics, even if you don't like them<br />21. Torrenting is stealing, stealing is for unemployed noobs<br />22. Saying hello in a chatbox multiple times will not make somebody magically appear. Say it once. That's enough.<br />23. Try to keep on topic when posting in message boards<br />24.<br /><br />Amendment 1: Noobs only [break the rules of the guide] thinking they're funny, cute, or just like pissing people off. So breaking these rules in attempting to be a noob does not count as noobishness.<br /><br />Amendment 2: If a noob continues his/her/it's noobish ways to a point where they are breaking the rules of the website/gameserver, he/she/it has no right to resist a short-long banning.<br /><br />Amendment 3: For rule #6, general typos can't classify you as a noob. Words that are easy to spell, such as 'scene' or 'since', being misspelled will be a violation of Rule #6. Forgetting one or two characters is considered a typo.<br /><br />Amendment 4: In regards to #23, moving away from the topic of discussion is not considered noobishness as long as said 'off-topicness' is in some shape, way or form related to the real topic of disscussion. (Ex. When talking about trains, you move onto the topic of pollution)<br /><a href="http://guidetononnoobishness.blogspot.com/2010/04/guide.html#comments"><br />Any Suggestions?</a><br /><br />You have the right to redistribute and reference this Guide as long as you cite the creator (me). © TheEPICtrainrider<br />When linking this guide please use: http://guidetononnoobishness.blogspot.com/The Last Train Riderhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00209770597429643856noreply@blogger.com1
