"mobs" is absolutely acceptable if you are playing an MMO, given the history of the term

who's truly in the wrong here
>>
>>344777507

comes from MMO's, and is rooted in MUD's/MUSH's, where it's short for "Mobile NPC"

a guy referring to them as mobs is usually just an oldfag.

More likely a casual that rarely plays anything other than WoW and picked it up from people who picked it up from oldfags via everquest.

Ive stopped talking to around 15 people for this. The best part is I always wait a few days before blocking or refusing to text them back, that way they will never know why. One of them worke at gamestop and I always go to the store nextdoor and convince random girls to accompany me each time so we can day stuff like "they're characters right? Not toons or avatars" and laugh.

mob started as the mobile enemies in early MUD games and the terminology carried over to the enemies in MMOs

toons started in early games where you made an avatar to represent yourself and the graphics were so unrealistic and brightly colored we called them cartoons, or toons

>>344783376

true, Most the people I play with are oldfags so that's what I'm used to. We got started on MUDs.

But basically, everyone got started calling them Mobs because the original MMO players brought that term over from MUDs.

Only complete newfags DON'T call them mobs, basically.

Not all mobs are monsters though, depending on the setting. Feels kind of ridiculous to call something like an ordinary dog or a bear a monster.
