Why doesn't anyone use the word 'noob' anymore?
>>344052635
We just say "git gud" now
>>344052635
Because being a "tryhard" is a much worse crime these days
>>344052635
Because it's 2016 grandpa. It may hurt someone's feelings.
People are soft now. They don't even say "get raped" anymore, they say "get rekt".
noob was out of fashion by 2004 already
I know a legit 10 year old who does. Unironically.
Because television tried to use it.
>>344053000
I don't get what kids mean by tryhard. Doesn't help they all apparently have different definitions.
Because it doesn't mean the same thing it did 10 years ago.
because Scrub has replaced it.
>Call somebody a noob
>Get reported by everyone on the opposite team
>Get banned from the server by the crybaby overlords
>Police come to your house, smash your computer, and confiscate your internet
>Obama slams you on television, saying "this isn't the America I'm trying to run"
>Have to change your name and flee your city just to try and start over again
>A patreon is started to help fund the gender studies degrees of the person you offended and their children
>Hundreds of news articles go up about you
Nah, I just stay silent
I replaced the word with nigger.
>>344052635
I still call people noob.
eZ kid
>>344052635
Why is Nazrin so shit? Literally worst animalhu
>>344055272
>guy says nigger on the mic like ten times
>admin steps in and starts hollering at him
>what the fuck do you have to say for yourself
>nigger I'm fucking black
>admin goes silent
So I'm wondering, if I racially identify as a black man do I get to say nigger in video games?
>>344055213
Holy fuck my sides
>>344052635
>get called noob
>have more game experience in years than opposite team kids have age
just because you´re a sucker for boring ass meta in cancer like LoL it doesnt make everything noob, noob
>>344055641
Given how spineless is the gaming community well enjoy your free pass to spout nigger to your heart contempt
>>344052556
How many fedoras do you own?
>>344052635
Id rather go back to noob, cuck seemed to take over
>>344054673
If you're at least better than one person at any game then you're a try hard
>>344055587
Please no bully best mouse.
>>344055945
>>344052635
You're the type of people who fuck pillows.
>>344055641
Completely stupid.
If the server has a "no racism" rule, the dude gets banned regardless.
>>344056409
If the guy is black it's not racist nigger.
>>344056547
If the nigger is nigger it's not nigger nigger
It was replaced, kind of hoe rekt became the new pwned
I got called a noob on Rocket League today.
>went 1-0 down
>HAHAH FUKCIN NOOBS
>2-0
>NOOBS NOOBS NOOBS
>won 3-2
>GAY NOOBS LOL
>>344056547
Not my problem. If I give one guy a free pass, I have to give everyone else the same pass.
How long until idiots start saying they're black to evade bans? Too fucking bad. Abide by the rules, or play on another server.
>>344056175
Only Suwako pillows.
>>344056547
yfw ur ancestors werent part of slavering anyone and you can shout nigger all you want since all they´ve done in ur zone is rape local innocent underaged people
>>344057047
You're fucking nuts.
>>344057391
No, he's fucking a frog.
>mfw op thinks anyone on /v/ is old enough to ever actually remember using the term noob in online gaming
There may be like 10 people tops on /v/ at any one time frame nowadays that vaguely remember being a retard and saying shit like that when they were a dumb kid.
Most of /v/ is kids who weren't around while that word was being used in online gaming, let's be completely honest.
Shit's over a decade old now dude. Nearly 2 decades.
>>344052635
They do use it, try joining any server with russians on
>>344057461
Remember when l33t speak was cool?
>>344057669
No, it never was. You were always an embarrassing faggot if you spoke like that, ironically or otherwise.
>>344052635
I still use the word noob (in warframe), in fact I go a step beyond and type it out as n00b.
gg ez is the "in" thing now
Why doesn't anyone use the word "FAIL" anymore?
>>344054673
a tryhard is someone who
>wants to win
>using meta strats
>is better than me but don't want to admit it
that's what i've learned
I liked it better when the common retort to being criticized for cheesing a game was "you mad?" instead of "salt."
Salt sounds 10 times more patronizing and dismissive. Even if it isn't even directed at me, if I read it in-chat I get annoyed.
>>344057970
Sounds like an epic fail, if ever I've hear it
Remember when owned was a thing? Remember when pwned was a thing?
>>344058196
I don't use this sorta phrase often at all but there is no other way to put it honestly.
That word is now a "buzzword normie meme word."
Thanks to youtube and viral videos, only faggot normies ever use the word "fail" in the way you are talking about.
>>344058606
XD
>>344052635
same reason we use bait/shitposter and not troll anymore.
>>344058873
remember when pure pwnage was a thing?
>>344058201
Nah. A tryhard is usually someone who looks up the best cheese in a game and uses that cheese to win while sacrificing the enjoyment of his enemies and allies.
Like when I fight people in Smash Bros online. I will have fun and say GG at the end if I have an honest brawl and I lose fair and square. I don't appreciate try-hards who only stand at the edge of the map from the start and will do nothing but Dodge your hits and try to grab you so they can throw you off the edge.
Why don't people use smilies anymore? o.O
>>344052635
What it boils down to is all the anti-bullying propaganda fed to people makes them less likely to call you out for being a noob.
Everyone is a sensitive bitch nowadays.
I want to fuck that mouse
>>344059396
because image boards use images to display emotion/reaction :/
if you were hear a decade ago tons of people used smilies
I personally call people noobs all the time.
>>344058368
>"You mad?"
>Not the infinitely superior "You mad."
Saying it as a statement is way more patronizing than saying it as a question.
>>344057448
You are lucky I don't have time to deal with you.
>>344059570
She's too devoted to her religion to allow you to.
I've started saying owned and noob again for some reason
>>344058368
>I liked it better when the common retort to being criticized for cheesing a game was "you mad?"
how fucking young are you
Don't be a lamer
>>344058196
I knew the term was dead the second my mother started fucking using it.
>>344059396
Because there's nothing more obnoxious and cringeworthy than an adult typing "^.^ *kisses* :3 ;D"
I'm just here because I like Nazrin.

mouse butt
>>344058201
close but no cigar
>wants to win at the expense of fun, even when he will never be top tier and never see a return on his effort
>abusing meta exploits that he copied from pros but lacks the fundamentals to compete with them
it's a synonym for esports wannabe (there's another word that has fallen out of the meta). a tryhard lacking self awareness might simply write it off as others being jealous of his average skill level, failing to recognize that nobody else at his rank even gives a shit who is good or not. he has to put in 100% effort just to compete with others who are playing casually and getting called out for ruining the game

Literally nobody says that faggot
I've lost my pagoda...
>>344062295
>>344059008
Unless youre claiming we have all become shitty people, I disagree. We stopped calling others trolls because they stopped trolling, preferring to just shitpost instead. Noob just fell out of favor or whatever.
i want to fuck a mouse
>>344057065
This.
I'm white and my family were immigrants from eastern Europe who moved long after slavery was outlawed.
Plus, how does a fucking black shit saying nigger make it any less offensive to those who are already offended by it?
The people who think that blackies are allowed to say it but anyone else should be punished are fucking faggots who'd need a good castrating if they still had any balls left.
>>344054549
Leave the playground, Savill
>>344063180
What one?
if nazrin was a guy she'd have big balls
>>344055171
Dont you mean shitter?
>>344059271
>cheese
>not just trying your best to deal with whatever comes your way
>labeling legitimate if annoying strats with "derogatory" terms
I've never understood this mentality. I remember back when SCII came out protoss tower rush was a thing. I rarely used it once I hit diamond (it generally didn't work at that point), but if my scout saw that the guy I was up against was a total chump and I could totally do it to end the match in the next 120 seconds, why fucking not?
as for standing at the edge and throwing in smash, if you can't fight thatyou suckbut you can just try waiting them out. they literally can't beat you if you don't go near them
>>344062150
god look at that baby fat, i want some babybackribs
