I think for the most part I agree with your points.SonicWaffle said:
I should clarify that I am not saying that NO ONE is worth talking to. I am making a generalization which I don't necessarily think is unfair. There is certainly a percentage of 'Net denizens who are not, to use a tasteless aphorism, mouth-breathers, but their numbers and concentration seems nebulous and difficult to pin down.
To amend my analogy (haute cuisine and McDonald's are, I think we can agree, pretty much mutually exclusive), trying to find meaningful discourse on the Internet is like trying to find an empty parking space downtown at 9 A.M. Often, your only hope is to keep going farther and farther away from the dense core of work-goers and try the back streets. It may be riskier, but if you can find a good spot you can use every day, you're set for a long time.
Was that better?
I suppose it would be fair to say that people who use overused memes like the "I don't want to live" one may not be doing so out of a lack of intelligence or desire for discourse, but rather a malformed sense of humor that considers repetition to be the apex of comedy. (Malformed may not be fair, but I disagree with their viewpoint, which gives me the right to vilify them, as granted me by the Almighty Internet).
Other than that, I'm not sure we disagree too much. Talking is fun, but much like sex, requires a compatible partner if you don't want to do it by yourself.
Going to have to correct you there. A noob is someone who is bad at the game and refuses to learn to play more or less but a newb is someone who is new to the game.ecoho said:this oh god this! i mean how hard is it for people to stay in a dam group or just not push alone?Midgeamoo said:While playing League of Legends

"You shouldn't have been all the way down there without any wards dude, what were you thinking?"
"LAAAAG"
"You were farming there for 30 seconds with all of the enemy team missing"
"BECAUSE OF LAG NOOB"
"Lag doesn't have you make bad decisions, you keep feeding them"
"STFU OR I FEED"
"You already are feeding"
"NOOB, BECAUSE I'M LAGGING"
OT: also from League of Legends, people who call others noobs. Noob means new you idiots the word your looking for is ether scub which mean really bad but willing to try advice or nub which mean someone who thinks they're good but are worse then a scrub since they wont take advice and blame the whole team because they suck.
I was debating with a group of individuals about child rearing. The discussion about spanking came about. The girl countered that spanking in sexual abuse. When I asked her about how she grew up she did in fact state that she was spanked while growing up. I told her to go up to her father and confront him about how he had been "sexually abusing her".
She stated that wasn't the case because her father would never do such a thing. But everyone else parents were in fact sexually attacking them. /sigh

Failing to succeed at trivial arguments often leads to people doing really stupid stuff.
It is interesting though cause I once made a claim about the majority of Harry Potter fans being female and every response from a member of my audience involved how I didn't know enough female fans.
After naming 30 female fans I asked him to name how many male fans he knew, of course he declared he didn't have to and my evidence was poor.
Obvious troll is obvious.

no what you just stated is the definition of a nub, but i know how you got confused. See the whole noob means bad and not willing to learn to play started with Halo were it stayed relitivly unnoticed by the majority untill the comming of Call Of Duty (to consoles mind you) were some idiots got the idea that noob was the same thing as nub and refused to lisson to their elders. Thus the missuse of the word noob which in fact means newbe.Glademaster said:Going to have to correct you there.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Noobs%20vs.%20Newbs&defid=4307260 despite the fact that the example is from CoD no one I know has ever referred to someone as a noob as someone who is new at the game. Noobs are bad at a game refuse to learn to play the game and a limited pool of tactics.
A nub has some skill barrier that stops them from getting better despite trying a noob doesn't try.
