- intenex 15y agoI hadn't heard that word in a few months. Shocking.
- irrumator 15y agoNot really, it's just referencing new users, it's used in the site itself: http://news.ycombinator.com/noobstories http://news.ycombinator.com/noobstories and http://news.ycombinator.com/noobcomments http://news.ycombinator.com/noobcomments
- singular 15y agoNot that I want to dive into 'yet another typical silly internet argument (TM)', but those seems to me to be tongue-in-cheek geek references whereas your comment carried the immature snark of 'lol you n00b' which I come to hn to avoid.
- irrumator 15y agoI'm afraid you're looking for something that just isn't there. Now this feature request is a good idea in my opinion, that's why I'm suggesting to upvote it on the Feature Requests page and not just make another post that will get killed and ignored.
