• monospaced

  Back in the day (I'm talking BBSs and text-based RPGs 15+ years ago) we used the term Newbie all the time. As far as I know that was one of the earliest uses of the term. The other spellings are simply derivatives, I think.

  • wow mono. how many years of research did it take you to come up with this?– iCanHasQBN1/5

    none at all...just personal experience. I essentially witnessed the evolution of the 'noob'– monospaced2/5

    I'm right there with ya, mono.– d_rek3/5

    didn't we all? i thought it was obvious that it evolved from Newbie. figured everyone knew– iCanHasQBN4/5

    I thought so too, but zaq seems too have confusion on the subject– monospaced5/5
