I don't think we should deal in hypothetical situations. It doesn't
take a rocket scientist to comprehend the rules...and they were
written for the younger crowd to easily comprehend.

Simply having difficulty navigating the site doesn't qualify
someone as a "n00b", and I don't think any rational, patient person
would see it that way. A "n00b" breaks rules...pure and simple. But
even a knucklehead should understand that SMS, spam and flaming are
BAD etiquette on the internet! Anywhere except unmoderated places,
and this is not one of those!

Aye, but, what if there's someone new that joins, & hasn't ever been
on a site like this, but, understands the rules, ect & is a great
member everywhere they go? Though they don't understand the site's
navifation to well, or can't seem to find anyone that will or is
willing to teach them & show them around, & is instead being called a
N00B just because they don't understand.

Anyhow, I just
found this site, while searching for wolf photos. It looked
interesting so I thought I'd join.

You're quite welcome.

O.o Strange name for a new member.....
Thanks a lot JC!
Problem Solved.

A "n00b", apparently, in the lingo of your generation, is a new member
who is incapable of acting as a productive and obedient member of the
community (which would include following the rules, not spamming, flaming or being a
troll, etc.).

The alternative to that is a "newbie", who
is a good and productive (and contributive)
new member.

As I understand it anyway...

It means new person
