Default My pet peeve (one of them)
Does ANYONE know how to spell "Newbie". It is not "Noob".

They both work!

I don't think it's a real word anyway.. you can spell it however you want!

No wonder half this generation does not know how to spell CORRECTLY. Thanks to beth for pointing out that it is not a real word.

I think 'noob' might fall into the same category of made up words shortened from other words as in, oh let's say for example,... 'Pix'....

newbie (newb): someone who is new to something but is willing to accept others help and learn
noob (n00b): a f*cking n00b.
