ndantony Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 By that logic, am I allowed to say things such as... "What's up, dude?" "Run along, children." "Good work, sport!" "Okay, boss." ...even though it's name calling? Here is the definition of name calling: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/name-calling "the act of using offensive names to insult someone" Or the longer version: "the use of offensive names especially to win an argument or to induce rejection or condemnation (as of a person or project) without objective consideration of the facts" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ionus Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I remember one time I ran Appolodorus with Excalibur Prime equipped. Got paired with 3 MR1 Tenno: Mag, Loki, and Excalibur. I felt like their sensei taking them on a training mission. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlutAdler Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I don't call them newbies. If I see someone that low of rank I usually say: "Welcome to Warframe! How are you liking it so far?" And yes, some beginner players do take offense to being called newbie. It's not exactly the nicest thing to say and comes off as really quite condescending. Newbie? Or NOOBIE. Huge difference. It's not condescending. When you're starting a new school or new job you're called a newbie, or "he/she's new" If you take offense to a true statement, you're simply too sensitive....

BlutAdler Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Just gotta face it man. People are too sensitive. It's how we've grown as a people. People take offense to every and everything. Though in this situation you don't know if the new guy did, it could be a misunderstanding. However, reading from these posts solidified that conclusion for me. People get riled up over anything. Too touchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
