Newbie

From Alter Aeon Wiki

Newbies (also sometimes referred to as noobs) are players or characters who are new to alter aeon and lack experience and/or levels.

Newbie characters

When a character is first created it is automatically flagged as a newbie until after six months have passed and it is of a sufficient level.

It doesn't necessary follow that newbie characters are newbie players. A lot of experienced players create alts.

Newbie channel

To help newbies learn the game they may use the newbie channel to ask questions.

The connotation of noob

The term noob has received a generally bad connotation over the years. A lot of players who are not marked as a newbie by the game (they have been playing over six months and are above level 30) still lack much experience, game knowledge, or common sense. Older players refer to them as noobs, or n00bs.
