He's not cornered at all.

I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about all of the OTHER times, :+P

Um, you're the twit that insulted me first, Crazy. Or perhaps you don't think calling someone a newbie is an insult. Must I spell it out for your feeble mind to ATTEMPT to grasp? Perhaps I'll just filter you instead. Buh-bye.

--------------FE97AED3D64C7C1D75489996 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit We discussed this theme already - IMO "Newbie" isn't an insult. It is just a level of experience. Every human is a newbie in (nearly) everything sometimes, even going to the toilet has to be learned. And that is what CrazyGlue wrote ("Eep weren't you a n-e-w-b-i-e once too"). If someone is a newbie and you call him a newbie there's nothing wrong about that. If you call someone a newbie who isn't a newbie that means only that you don't know much about his knowledge, but still no insult. eep schrieb: > > Um, you're the twit that insulted me first, Crazy.

if you call someone a newbie and know he isn't, you can see it as an insult.
It's like calling someone stupid - deliberately underestimating someone's capabilities and/or knowledge. rolu ananasFeb 23, 2001, 2:04pm

--------------ADA90A07100B9AF27E743253 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit You're right about that - but 1. Crazy didn't use it that way, he didn't talk about the present 2. eep uses it always without knowing anything about someones knowledge so it doesn't apply in either case rolu schrieb: > [View Quote] begin:vcard n:Hatzenberger;Volker x-mozilla-html:FALSE url:oct31.de adr:;;Bornheimer Strasse 15;Bonn;;53111;Germany version:2.1 email;internet:vha at oct31.de end:vcard --------------ADA90A07100B9AF27E743253-- roluFeb 23, 2001, 5:29pm

I added it anyway to complete the list, since it is the only combination of
calling, newbie and insulting someone. oh, and to really complete the list: if you call a newbie a non-newbie, it's a compliment. Adds up quite nicely. rolu |
