Just wanted to ask in your opinion.. how long are TIBB members known as "newbies" when they first join?

Until they make themselves stand out and post regularly. That's how I see it anyway.
Until they stop acting like newbs. Some people are never newbs. Some people have thousands of posts and are still newbs in my eyes.

What if the member stands out and posts regularly but NOT all TIBB members notice but SOME do?

It goes with the flow really, it's not something predictable.

You're talking about me, aren't you? I knew you liked me, but I just didn't know how much. Like, I didn't know you liked me.
I dunno. I still consider myself a newb.

I'm probably still a newb. I don't post enough plus I'm too lazy to upload an avatar or signature picture. Plus i spend a lot of time in Arcade (though i need to catch up with some tournaments i still have rounds to play).

I'd say 6 monthsish.
Firewire
22-12-2009, 04:52 PM
Depends.
If someone joins and in about 3 months has thousands of posts and is pretty respected throughout then forum, they probably aren't as much of a newbie as others.

It ultimately depends on how like able the character is in my opinion. In some cases it could just be there impact, Such as Wombai he does not hold anything back, his opinions are strong and very logical. And i would say he is on the same level as Arista in the serious debates area (if not stronger!!!)
Damaris
22-12-2009, 04:53 PM
I'd say when they are seen as regular posters and members.That didnt make sense...

Yeahh!
Beastie
22-12-2009, 04:55 PM
Lol I have nearly 10,000 posts but still think I am a newbie. I came on the forum to being disliked/hated to now a few members liking me.

22-12-2009, 04:56 PM
Am I a newbie? I joined in May 2008, but meh :conf:
You need to be on the forum regularly and have widespread recognition among the established members. For example, I don't consider Enid or Stephanie as newbies because they're recognisable and memorable, whereas I tend to forget a lot of other people who joined this year.

Yeah I know. I think I make some quality comments but then some that are not much quality but hey just look at Britain, gone from classy to trashy.

and me.
Calvin Harris = :yuk:
As a general rule (for me anyway), if you stick around for about 10 months, regularly posting, then you've stuck in my mind. For ages I thought Jack_ was Jack, turns out he isn't :tongue:.

I wonder how i am precieved on this forum. I'm certainly classed as a newb in terms of how i contribute and how long on the site but I'm curious.
Braden
22-12-2009, 05:21 PM
it depends if there nice to me,
if they reply to posts and comment on boards made by me
then there not newbies in my opinion
Patrick
22-12-2009, 05:50 PM
They need to get an avatar, I hate pricks who dont have Avatars or SIGs.
They need to post on more than one section instead of just the BB Section.
They need to have about 500+ Posts.
And then they arent newbies :)
Two utter newbs.
Sound the newb alarm.
Princess
22-12-2009, 06:33 PM
Yeah I argee with Stu,some people just seem like newbies. I say as a general rule though about 6 months plus. Like all the lot who came during the summer(thebeast,courtney etc etc) I still see as newbies.
Oddly not Enid,Niamh or Claudia though,it feels like they've been here ages!

I always see members, and then established regular members. The ones that tend to take part in most games and contribute most to the forum.. such as Markwaldorf, Shaun, Zee, Fom, Princess, Christina, Ben, Andy and that kind of group

If they became a member in the year it is, they're pretty much a newbie for me... or if I've never seen them post before xD

I`ve been here since May.
I have posted so many times.
I have been on the forum everyday since I joined.
You need to learn the meaning of the word Newbie.
You`ve been here since 2007 so im taking it everyone seems New to you though.

This is from the guy who sees not having an avatar as a sign of being a noob?
Christ, you surpass yourself every day.

Patrick,I see you as a newbie as well. Although I've been here years.

It doesn't matter how many times you've posted though and how active you are. I think I know the meaning of the word newbie thanks, and I class you as one. :) It's not a bad thing.
Billy
22-12-2009, 11:36 PM
I still class people who've been here longer than me as newbie lmao :L how hypocritical (shock horror) of me!
Patrick
22-12-2009, 11:41 PM
Oh My God, people on this forum actually piss me off!
Ugh!
I suppose its people that bring stuff to the forum that I take notice of, I don't come on here half as much as I used too so people probably think I am a newbie. (Which would make them more of a newbie really haha)

Ok people,calm. If you joined this year(unless at very start) you shouldn't be insulted if the rest of us see you as newbies,jeez! It's only because we've been here forever,we were all newbies once!
am i one? =P
i post quite regularly but i dunno =) <3

What are you doing on this late? :shocked:
I'd say yes you are, but then again I'm considered a newbie to some people, so I don't know.

i'm still a newb,
i only started re-posting over half way through big brother 10
I would say I'm still a newb, despite being a member since 2006, simply because I very rarely post. It all depends on forum participation. :)
Patrick
23-12-2009, 02:06 PM

I dont consider you a newb though.
It all comes down to the ammount of posts tbh.
If I went and joined the forum now, and posted 7000 times in one day, everyone will know me.
So I dont think many people consider you new Jess, seeing as you have over 1000 posts and your active.

23-12-2009, 02:13 PM
being a noob has nothing to do with how many posts you have or what your profile looks like. It's about becoming well integrated into the forum, making friends, doing things that people remember having all your posts have substance. Good grammar doesn't hurt either :)

Sorry, how can somebody do something to stand out on a forum? And what if this member does not like you? :shrug:
Patrick is ace!
No, he really isn't..
That kid needs anger management or something.

Oh I don't think I am usually online when arguments happen. I was not online when Remy and Steph were having an argument in the Den? Do the "big" arguments happen at about 9pm? I am usually offline by 6ishpm because I wake up at 2am for work :( I come online between 6pm/7pm and 2am if I can't sleep!

If a member has been involved in a major argument , done something controversal or just caught my eye then that stands them out.
It doesnt really matter if they are not liked by me to stand out either.
