...or blasters.

Personally, I'll go with 'hey who wants to join a team' and avoid anything even remotely close to the term 'noob', since it's often been linked to a mostly derogatory connotation involving some fool who refuses to learn and thinks they know EVERYTHING.


"And yes, it worries me that people know how many pipelines their graphics cards have and the bus speed of a PCIe-16x, yet don't know how to convert between bordering time zones."

I've been saying "freebie" in conversation with my wife about it.

I wasn't making any distinction between free and premium players though, I was just using the term to describe those players who aren't paying a monthly subscription fee.

Yeah, I was just going to refer to "them" by their character names. Not like I'm going to write a manifesto targeted specifically at "them" in the first place.
