If you wanted to say that you find it offensive for others, then you should have said:
You could have also said:
"I don't find the word "noob" offensive, though others may!"
Now you're trying to deny it!
So, all in all, if you are not comfortable with the word "noob", then that's your problem, not mine.
I get the feeling you're offended by the word "noob", though other than that, it's just another day for me lol.
You're the one who got offended about the word "noob" and demanded I don't use such a word.
As I've quoted multiple times already:
This sentence was taken from this entire post:
You literally said that, the post has not been edited yet either so you can't edit it and claim you never said it.
So just in case you try to edit it in the future, I've taken a screenshot to prove it:
Let's break down the sentence and properly explain what it means, literally, in the English language.
Imo means "In my opinion", which means that YOU are saying it's something that YOU believe.
Then there is the word "noob" in quotation marks, which specifies that you are speaking about THAT word specifically.
Then you continued after the quote with "word is a bit offensive". Which solidifies that you think that word is offensive. You could have said "very offensive" or "barely offensive" but it's still offensive on some level.
I've never been offended at the word noob. Where did you even get such conclusions from? I don't care at all, and as I said, I'm always ready to admit that I'm a noob and I'm fine.
do you see the difference between sentences: "many people could get offended" and "I've never been offended at the word noob"? "MANY PEOPLE" IS NOT RELATED TO ME! Everyone has their own opinion and point of view. The word noob can't trigger me, as I said before. And if I find this word offensive, this DOES NOT MEAN that I can be offended at it. I find this word a bit offensive FOR OTHERS.
Then you wrote "many people could get offended", with the keyword being "could" which indicates that other people may be offended by the word "noob" as well. It doesn't mean they definitely are, or that anyone actually is, just that it's possible!
Although I also think that being a noob is normal. I still tell everyone that I'm a noob.
You've literally made a statement there indicating that YOU find the word offensive.
You said you were offended, now you claim you never said that, even when it's right there in plain sight.
Next you will be telling us humans don't need oxygen to survive lol.
You literally said something, then deny that you said it, even when the evidence is right there.
Anyway, I'm so confident I am right, I'd literally kill myself if I was not.
You're the one who got offended about the word "noob" and demanded I don't use such a word.
You gave me a suggestion about "strict rules", I declined it, you should have left it at that but you didn't, you keep pushing.
I'm stubborn in that I will not stop defending myself, you're stubborn because you keep attacking.
This started when YOU got offended at the word "noob".
You're the one who is trying to tell me what I should and should not do & say.
You keep grasping at straws, you keep making these outrageous examples that have NOTHING to do with the actual conversation...
It's not even so much the language as your inability to accept a mistake and learn from it.
You associate the word "noob" with a depreciative meaning, I LITERALLY GAVE YOU EVIDENCE that it is not a bad word!
I am NOT trying to make you look like an idiot, I'm trying to help you learn that "noob" is NOT a bad word, it's a perfectly innocent word to use to accurately describe what a newcomer is!
Evidence of YOU being triggered by the word "noob".
If there was no such thing as a noob, then the word wouldn't exist!
ANYONE has access to this website. They can create an account and sign up, without even knowing what a "Warmer" is, or even knowing what the word "Freestyle" means.
What Kradie said was different to what you and FoxHound said.
Imo Noob is supposed to be offensive... <> To use the word noob can both have both positive and negative effect on a person's psyche.
I completely agree with Kradie. Noob is not the same thing as Newbie. Noob is pejorative.
in fact u so silly... we need MORE newbs to alive this game !
But if we're talking about culture of freestyling and about Warmer in general, we should not scare people away by calling someone a noob.
Also your inability to remember what you've said before.
You also keep denying things which there is clear evidence of, with your OWN words!
You don't even realize what you wrote, YOUR OWN WORDS!
You wrote that in your opinion, the word is offensive, and that also many people could get offended.
Your use of the word "customer" is hilarious!
I am not a shop, you are not a customer.
You WERE a participant, however the Cup is closed now, so now you're just a person whinging.
Unless you want to give me money and I'll sell you some feet pics?
It is 100% clear, you were triggered by the specific word "noob", otherwise you wouldn't have replied specifically talking about the word "noob".
If you want to change your mind, that's fine!
Though that's exactly what happened. Trying to deny is ridiculous when the evidence is right there.
You personally believe that the word "noob" is a bad thing, while I do not.
I've already explained what the word literally means, that it isn't inherently bad.
I've even acknowledged the fact that some people DO associate it in a depreciative manner!
Now instead of just accepting that truth, you've went on a rant about how you're a customer and I should accept your "review" lol.
I am blatantly refusing your recommendation
Can you not accept that I don't want to do it the way you want me to do it?
I'm literally quoting things THAT YOU SAID!
This all started because YOU said there shouldn't be such "strict rules" which then escalated to YOU having a problem with the word "noob"...
You came in here preaching about what Warmer should and shouldn't be, and I disagree with you.
The whole point WAS to have strict rules! To be for the best of the best! To have anything else would defeat the entire point of this event... This is where your overwhelming sense of entitlement kicked in when I disagreed with you on this.
You can give me suggestions! Though you cannot tell me how to run my own event.
Though, there are absolutely noobs in Warmers, and everything else in life, both objectively and subjectively. To believe there is not is delusional ignorance.
You're the one attacking!
You said I shouldn't have made "strict rules" in the beginningso I justified why I should. In my eyes the whole event would be useless without these strict rules.
Then you got offended at the word "noob", you started saying that using this word is bad, when literally it's not a bad thing unless you want it to be.
We're not talking about an official product that I am selling... I'd have to go through health & safety measures, and whatever other legal stuff in order not to get sued...
Of course, why shouldn't I take it literally? Are you suggesting your words are sarcastic? Or exaggerated?
If you are deliberately speaking with sarcasm, or exaggeration, or any other form of meaning other than literal, then you need to specify that, otherwise I will take your words literal by dictionary definition.
I mean, for me it's very simple, I'm not sure about you though.
Sorry but you literally did say that
At least Kradie is saying it's his opinion, because the literal truth is different from his opinion.
In my head I know it's a great idea the way I vision it, the problem is we have less than 0.5% of players interested in Warmers as we used to 20 years ago...

Sorry, but that is delusionally ignorant...
Please don't mistake that and think that I am insulting you because I'm not! It's just a blatant fact because what you said is incorrect and quite delusional to think there isn't such a thing as a noob when there clearly is.
A noob literally means they are a beginner, that their skill level is of entry/basic level. I'm not going to call them anything else other than a noob, or a beginner, or that they have basic or a lack of experience.
Either way they all mean the same sort of thing, that they aren't even close to being good yet.
It has nothing to do with competing or not.
I personally feel like people are too easy to insult and offend these days and that it's unhealthy to sugarcoat everything. Whether you call them a noob, or a beginner, or they lack skill, or that they aren't good enough yet, it's all the same thing...
People should not be taught and raised to be offended by failure or a lack of experience... Just tell them "Look, you're not very good right now, but if you enjoy it enough and keep practising one day you will be WAY above average!"
That's the truth, the truth should not be offensive.
I strongly believe in tough love, to specifically admire those who show strength, confidence and skill far more than anyone else. If you do anything but this, getting better doesn't have as much of an impact.
That's why reaching top tier status all those years ago felt special, these days it's like they want to treat everyone like a winner even when they are a loser lol.
Nah... There is no way a noob is going to surprise anyone unless they are faking it, and if they are faking it then they have other problems in their life.
I'm doing this for fun, it's my personal ambition and vision to create a very successful event with the best players that exist.
Why? Noob is a legitimate word to explain someone who is new/beginner level.
I was a noob once lol. Absolutely nothing wrong with that! It's just shorthand for newbie.
Though, I always have been and always will be quite happy to play with noobs and teach them, but when it comes to actual competitive gameplay... At a level expected to be the best of the best, it's kinda dumb to put noobs against insanely skilled players.
To have these events streamed live, with a growing audience on Twitch, is something to aspire towards!
He's going to ask some of his friends who might play. If this happens, I'll reactivate it. Fingers crossed!
This is not an event for noobs, or anyone who is lazy, or people who are unreliable.
what I don't understand is that nowadays I see more and more people claiming that their opponents must be practising to play on the same big rr/TTRR/tower race/wxw maps over and over again just to get maybe an easier win. while I don't doubt there has been plenty of example of this in the past.. is this still a thing? does anyone rly practise to play on a rope race map over and over again in singleplayer in 2023 just to get a possible easier win VS someone in a league game? that's just sad.
I respect FlashR's post here.
