Yeah sashok, if you have that opinion though...it is yours, but people will classify others no matter what...having it defined certainly would help.

That\'s why a lot of people make a distinction between newb and n00b.
newb-new person
n00b-jackass

Nobody \"discriminates\" against newbs, but what\'s wrong with discriminating against jackasses?
