I'd like to think that I was never a real n00b on any forums, though I certainly wasn't member of the year. I was quite positive that my lack of creative language and grammar really ticked off my old friends. Though I think my excessive creative language and grammar now ticks them off even more. xD;
Anyway, I probably wasn't super n00by because I had already been lurking for over half a year, not on an account, but as a guest. And I had already pinpointed the people I liked and wanted to be friends with, so I molded myself around what would be the ideal friend for them.
My n00by days were spent on Neopet's and their roleplaying boards. Ah, the one-liners. But I can't get back into my account because I can't remember what I put my birthday down as.
I was only n00by here as an RPer. I couldn't RP to save my life. :< And my grammar wasn't tip-top shape either, but you know.
I love acting n00by, though. I don't know why. It's so much fun to express how happy and hyper I am through words that are spelled wrong, in all caps, and mocking n00b speech. *shot*
