If you're not an Oldbie and not a Newbie does that make you a wannabie in all serous what do you call people that are neither. | |||

No, not really. Heck...I don't even go by the Oldbie term...I just to go by the vet term. Newbie term will always stay and be used, though. | |||

It's funny how Wakka, in FFX, mentions that Tidus is just a newbie. Strange hearing it offline and let alone, a video game. I'm used to hearing it online only. | |||

Originally posted by Anya Lol, yeah that surprised me too when I first heard it. Proves that the creators probably go to forums and such too. I mean, they can't be THAT different from us, right? |

Newbie: A new user of a technology, such as a computer, a certain computer program, or the Internet, is often referred to as a "newbie." The term originated sometime around 1990 and supposedly comes from the English phrase, "new boy," which refers to someone in their first year of public schooling. In online chat rooms, veteran net users like to call anybody who asks an easy question a newbie. If you ever get called a newbie, just shake it off -- everybody has to learn sometime. newbie: /n[y]oo'bee/ (Originally from British public-school and military slang variant of "new boy") An inexperienced user of Usenet or other system. This term surfaced in the newsgroup news:talk.bizarre but is now in wide use. Criteria for being considered a newbie vary wildly; a person can be called a newbie in one newsgroup while remaining a respected regular in another. The label "newbie" is sometimes applied as a serious insult to a person who has been around Usenet for a long time but who carefully hides all evidence of having a clue. Usenet: /yoos'net/ or /yooz'net/ (Or "Usenet news", from "Users' Network") A distributed bulletin board system and the people who post and read articles thereon. Originally implemented in 1979 - 1980 by Steve Bellovin, Jim Ellis, Tom Truscott, and Steve Daniel at Duke University, and supported mainly by Unix machines, it swiftly grew to become international in scope and, before the advent of the World-Wide Web, probably the largest decentralised information utility in existence. |

I've seen 'newbie' being used in a Tv series. I think it was on a police station, or some type of office, where they'd just hired this new dude, and then said that he was just a newbie. I don't remember from what it was, since it wasn't from something I watch regularly. I was just zapping through the channels, and happened to be there, just for that scene. Anyway, I've seen people use 'midbie' for people that are neither, but I think it sounds a bit odd. |

Since I am not a oldbie and not a newbie, I guess I can call myself a normaler... hey! That's it! A normaler. As of hearing newbie on shows, I heard it somewhere, but don't remember. |
