Noob

The word "Noob" is a common term used by many players. The original definition of "noob" is a player who breaks rules online. However, it differs. It usually refers to an individual who is inexperienced or does things that provoke others (not necessarily intentionally.)

Complex Definition
Usually,people call others noobs who are guests or players who have an Under 13-Type (Super Safe Chat) account. There are many cases where Robloxians use Safe Chat (Where you type what you want to say) to tell the "Noobs" to stop doing something which is annoying or against the rules but the noobs who are usually Super Safe Chat people or Guests who can only 'hear' pre-typed words from the Chat Box; meaning that whoever is being affected by the "noob" will not be able to communicate their complaints with the "noobs".

Where to Find
Noobs can wind up in any random places; however most of them wind up only on games on the front pages; due to the fact they cannot navigate ROBLOXian places correctly. Most noobs on War games will exhibit behavior such as killing people immediately after they respawn; killing people that are on their own team, or stalling players in "CTF" games with their inexperienced behavior. Noobs on building games will normally exhibit these stages of behavior:


 * 1) Mass clone bricks in the attempt to collaborate in building a structure.


 * 1) After a player deletes all the spam bricks/rebels, the "noob" will start to exhibit aggression towards the "deleter".


 * 1) The noob will attempt to combat the player by deleting or mass-spamming the area, thus driving all the players out of the server - or resulting in the players rebelling against the noob.


 * 1) If the players rebel against the noob, go back to step 2.

Rebelling & Controversy
Some people who have ownership of gear items will try to stop "noobs" if they are in games allowing gear items. Two particular guns are known for the ability to "unlock" (make editable) noobs, which are purchasable from the catalog. Both the Transmorph Ray Gun and the Freeze Ray 2011 can be shot at any particular player, and then a delete tool can be used to delete the player. After a player is deleted, they can only move the camera around and use the copy/move tool.

In other cases where the player does not have gear, the player will actually, in all the panic, try to COLLABORATE in the noob's doings, then blame the noob. A way to combat this is to..


 * Collaborate with players and get rid of the resulting spam.


 * Kick the "noob" if there is a kickscript.


 * Collaborate with players to rebuild.

In cases where there are no building tools, the players may..


 * Teamkill the noob.


 * Destroy the noob with a more powerful weapon.

Controversy involving the entirety of ROBLOX's interpretation of a "noob" has been circulating for several years. Here are some of the notable pieces of "facts" that have been passed around. Note: Not all of these are accurate, as most of these are simply opinions stated by ROBLOX players. Also, some pieces of controversy have been circulating, involving the moderators and administrators of ROBLOX, including the following:
 * Simply ignore the noob, if the "noob" is just stalling the player.
 * Anyone who breaks the rules is a "noob".
 * Anyone who has bad grammar is a "noob"".
 * Any guest is a "noob"".
 * Telamon has created a series of gears or hats about "noobs", is it possible that Telamon does not respect all ROBLOX users?
