Life **WORKin** for HBO, not Wrokin, lol, the title is very important, if there's a typo in it, what does that do for the appearence of the actual story? You n00b, lol, j/k.

That's good, anyways, I came here a little before you did. Maybe three or four weeks before you, or two, I don't know.

We were not all once n00bs. Most of us were newbs, the less annoying version. A n00b is the one who charges into the midst of seasoned HBOers and acts as if he knows everything there is to know about Halo (pretty much impossible unless you work at Bungie) and that the old guys know nothing. Some ways to recognize these are if they call the Flood "flugg", spell "Master Chief" as "Master Chef" and call Captain Keyes "Capn' Keys".

Even if one is a newb and not a n00b, it's kinda a rite of passage for them to be picked on a bit at first. Not so much so that they never come back, but enough that they know who's the boss.

At least that's how it was done at the fanfic section of the Barrow Downs (an old LOTR site, don't ask). It worked good. Told the new blood what was expected of them: good, solid work.

But, whatever. Just as long as you know when they say n00b, they usually don't mean just new, they mean an idiot.

PS: Good story, H_K. My next ASOWE 2 chapter will be in fairly soon.

Hawk7886, not Hawk7889. Workin, not Wrokin....i didn't know HBO was a continent.....i still don't see a point in this story...

i'm also going to take a stand and defend nOObs....i like nOObs...they are very friendly people, who only want to play the game and not get tormented and made fun of by other people....we were all nOObs once, and i dunno about everyone here, but all i wanted to do when i play a game is have fun.....it's the good game players that i personally hate....people who think they are good, and maybe they are, brag and brag about it, and then they start yelling insults to people....pointless insults i should add.....sure, it's annoying when a nOOb does something stupid, like shoot his own player, or shoot a wall, but at least they take the time to apologize about it and do their best to fix the problem....

i'm wasting comment space, so i'm sorry, but god damnit, it's starting to get annoying how we all pick on nOObs.....

Nice. A litte, "imperious", but I won't fault you for that. BTW, I sent you my next ASOWE part. Did you get it?
