I am not sure how long one is a n00b, but I am one. been lurking a long time first post sometime early this year. Met a few of you and so far seems like a good bunch of folk. Looking forward to meeting more in the furture. I grew up in the lenexa area and now reside up north in Liberty. I am an avide chiefs fan/tailgater addict, beer lover, bbq affectionado, golf nut, fishing freak and deer hunter. Basically, a jack of all trades, but master of none. I am a health care professional, father of two, navy veteran, married. lets see, my life in a nutshell. Got hammered on one of my first posts defending pot usage, but pretty much will say what I think. There you have it.

Im not sure how long it takes either, but Iv seen people with 2500 posts get called a nOOb. I guess it depend on who you ask.

10,000+ posts.

50,000 + posts

STFU nOOb!!!

Noob here... been lurking/reading for over a year but just started posting. Chiefs fan from PA, but currently working as an English teacher in South Korea. (Note: live game stream info/post-game torrents are welcomed--no broadcasts here, but blazing fast net speed and willing to seed broadcasts/torrents... :) )

Damn.....I was almost halfway there.....

Things are tough all over.

On another topic.....

You gave me some advice on my driver awhile back, just wanted to say Thanks again. I've been hitting the ball straighter and longer since.

2500 plus posts are still "noobs", unless you're female. Around these parts, when of the female gender...you're never a noob.

Yea theyll do anything to make a girl feel welcome.

Its the oldest trick in the book.

Glad to hear it.

I've lurked on this site for a long time. I guess I've lurked here since 2001 with 20 something posts. I visit several times a week and think this is the best forum out there! When I'm frustrated with roster moves, gameplaning, play calling, draft blunders, general manager, and all the other sh*t that's wrong with this organization....I know I can come here and feel like I'm not alone! I need you guys! :deevee:

N00b here. I've been lurking for a while, enjoying the comedic relief. I'm a working class slob, single parent of one kid that just started college this year. This has freed up quite a bit of my time, so I'll be here more often in the future. I try to make at least one game a year, and it's more fun taking my kid now then getting hammered like I used to at all games. I've been through all the crap Chiefs teams in the past, and am hyper-critical of current management. Not real fond of the current coaching regime either, cough. I've only posted a few times and got good rep! I'm sure this will go away after another mind numbing defeat. Anyway, you all seem like solid individuals, with a few exceptions, and I look forward to contributing. Oh, and Goatboy seems to catch alot of shit here, as any virgin should, but all I can say is he seems to work his ass off, and I appreciate his posting most of the time. Heres to hoping Huard can keep his osteoperosis in check long enough to win a few more ball games. Go Chiefs!!!

Welcome nOOb. The name must be changed though. Strict rules here on the planet.

:p

Quiet senior-n00b.

Well, all I know is I would rather be a "nOOb" then have enough free time (no life) to post on a message board 15-20 times a day. ROFL

Whats even funnier is how often I see someone completely dismiss another person's opinion on the Chiefs because they have a life and do not post very often. Its like they think "this person isnt a real Chiefs fan and shouldnt be treated like one because they dont post as much as me" :shake:

I dismiss your opinions because they're stupid. :)

N00b on n00b violence. Hey all you noobs, we are never gonna get anywhere if we infight. Cant keep lettin the man hold us down now.

I don't look at post count to determine your n00b status.

To me "n00b" = anyone who became a Chiefs fan during our 13-3 season under Vermeil, or after. Ive been a fan since '85, but I was only 6 years old and didnt really get into football and pay close attention until about '90.

They are usually just yankin ya around. Dont be defensive, and your opinion will be heard.

with that said, Ive been stuck inside a Ship yard in Germany the last few days, and Ive posted about 500 times.

I agree with this sentiment - I have been reading and getting a LOT out of this forum for > 1 year now - and have recently been posting more...and have been called n00b - not that big a deal - but often feels a bit ironic since I have been a Cheifs fan since they won the Super Bowl on the day I turned 14 in the FIRST NFL game I ever saw (I am from Canada - sticks - off air only in those days - so CBC carried 1 game per year)....so I am FAR from a n00b fan for the Chiefs - believe me - I have suffered through ever intervening year.

I remember distinctly walking through a snowstorm listening to a portable radio to that heart-ripping loss to Indie the year we should have won it all - jan 7, 1996 - I could not watch it - the stress would have killed me.......

No, that would be a bandwagon or fair-weather fan.

n00b

uhhh... being a n00b has nothing (at least directly) to do with how long you've been a chiefs fan.

I dont even pay attention to it. Sometimes its people who want to validate themselves or their post count somehow, but mostly just a joking initiation type thing. No big deal. Not about being a fan as much as a member of the planet.

I guess my point more was that I have been a "member" of the forum for over a year and a chiefs fan for 37 years and yet because i did not post a lot - i got the n00b tag.....I guess a n00b will always be different things to different people - it comes down to being discriminated against and having assumptions made about you because of a label someone pins you with.....hmmmm

I'm a nOOb... Been a lurker for several years. I first started coming to Chiefs Planet after reading an article in the KC Star. At that time I lived down in the Do Da. Lost all access too my old email or would of used my old login name.

Craqhead's my name because I play an online roleplaying game called Everquest. Its one of my addictions, along w/ the Chiefs, KU, and Nascar.

I started being a Chiefs and KU fan when I was in the Marines. Being stationed in NC, and the year being 87. KU was in the news alot even in NC. Due too Coach Larry Brown being from NC, and then that next fellow to join the KU coaching tree. I still cant say his name nor type it../shrug just me I guess.

So a question here if anyone will answer. At what point may I have a avatar (thats not ghey) and a signature?

You either have to have a certain # of posts, or been here a certain amount of time or have a certain amount of "rep". I helped you out with the rep, so you can try again and see if it will work.

Oh, and one other thing, you'd better make sure your sig meets specifications or Bob Dole will make your life miserable.

You didn't move his rep, you low post n00b. Let me try....

EDIT - Yes you did. Well, now he has that much more. Heh.

or be some past legendary's son... still don't know how the hell llama jr. got his avi so damn quick. I think the argument he got into with HTS showing he actually had some balls may have helped.

I most certainly did, it said he had no rep beotch, and now his ass looks big in his pants.

It's number of posts, not rep. For av and sig.

oh Bowser feeling all studly... glad to know somethings don't change no matter how long you stay away
:)

ROFLMATNTPMP!! (you know the roflmao part)(trying not too piss my pants)

Thanx for the rep guys and the info, but most of all thanx for the laughs. Guess I need to quit lurking so much and post more.

I'm an icon. The little dots say so!

WHY DO YOU TRY TO TAKE AWAY THE ONE THING THAT IS MINE????



And really, you need to post more. Where have you been hiding?

Didn't know that would happen. Damn nOObs anyways.

ungodly work hours...

even though I'm in France for business, believe it or not, this the first Saturday I've had the luxury of doing absolutely nothing since, well, the last time I came to France for business.

what the hell did you do now n00b?

Well either work, playing EQ or watching the Chiefs, and even the KU football program kick some arse. Don't forget Nascar and its Sprint to the Finish time at Dega.

I tried to type out r o f l m a o... and it made the icon.

Watch out for bullies like Skip Towne. He ruined my rep.

Yo n00b, I believe Bowser was addressing the Llama
ROFL

It's been known around here since I joined many many years ago that the n00bs need to watch out for Skip.

Either show him you have balls or avoid his ass for about two years ROFL

Showing him you have balls has nothing to do with it. If he disagrees with you, he neg reps you. It's people like him that I lurked for so many years.

Well ya gotta get off the bench and play in the game, or else ya neva get the respect from the other kids.

Thats the great thing about opinions, thier your own thoughts. While others may disagree w/them its your opinion that matters most too you. So while some peeps try and toss sand in your eyes. Just remember that opinions are like arse holes. Eveyone has one and they all stink.

:crybaby:

Yeah, that's why I turned my shit off. But maybe you'll see what I mean. Hopefully not though.

I know, I know :deevee: I'm just saying though. People like that are ignorant. But that's why his kids (or grandkids) will work for my kids one day. :)

I neg rep you because you hooked up with GoChiefs and Hootie. Stupid n00b.

Here's the deal, Skip is one of the reasons I lurked for awhile too... But underneath his grumpy old man exterior, he's pretty cool. You've just got to either have back up (in my case I had the entire oldtimer night crew, Sky, Rausch, KCMizzou, ENDelt, Cody, Iowanian, Mr. Kotter, Phobia, Pastor Mike, Bwana, jiM, JimNasium, shit even Denise back then) or just grin and bear it.

Of course I joined before we had a rep system too ROFL

Delusions of grandeur.

Go get 'em Skip!

I don't remember saying 3 words to you. But then, you aren't a dumbass like DFB.

I didn't "hook up" with them, Skip. I've support Damon Huard since week 2 last year. As odd as it is, GoChiefs, Hootie, and myself are the only ones that have been vocal about supporting him, so we get lumped together. But no big deal, right? Apparently not to you. You have some strange vendetta.

And hate to disappoint, but I've lurked for years. So, not sure n00b applies, but be that as it may.

You lurked because you didn't want Skip to neg rep you?

And what have I said seriously (and not in jest) that is so dumb? That Damon should be the starter? Good grief.

Isn't that hilarious?

I lurked because I didn't have as much time to continously check the board. But I can remember for years now reading threads where it's "this way", "my way", or "you're wrong". :shake:

'zactly :D

Not a lot of people take GoHootie Inc seriously, and that has nothing to do with supporting Huard.

If you've truly lurked for that long, you'd know that anyone who joined after Skip is a n00b.

Yes, I know. Which proves my point about everything.

Oh, now that's funny. ROFL

I'm not in GoHootie Inc. Do you see DFB anywhere in there? I came in afterwards. Thought it was funny. I support Huard. No biggie, right?

Wow, people here have issues. :shake:

You're sure a whiny little bitch.

Actually, correct syntax is "you sure are...."

dood, chill and have a good time. that's when this board is the most fun. I've hooked horns even with people on here I've met in real life and consider good friends.

we're all chiefs fans (even Logical or Vlad or whatever he is called now (I call him Jim)) and we all tend to get along in real life.

it's the internet, leave the thin skin for real life :D

Well I think your point is pointless.

You sure are a bitter, hateful person.

How many threads are you whining in?

I have issues, but at least I have my own sig and avy. That's why people lump you with them.

If you've lurked like you say you have for so long, then you know this place is just like high school. Surely you've figured that out.

Just one. But you are hateful in every thread you post in.

Here's the funny thing Luv (btw, how you doin babe?)

I've sided with Hootie and GoatCheese's opinions many times, but nobody has ever really called me out. (I actually like GoatCheese - havent't talked that much with Hootie)

It's like any other internet pissing match. If you don't have the balls to defend your position, no matter who you line up with, you're going to feel like your being persecuted.

You haven't read the starter pos for the official Damnon Huard fan club thread.

Oh yeah absolutely, I know that. What I didn't fully realize until registering and posting was that NO ONE here has a sense of humor.

Only to those who deserve it. I rarely use rep.

skip, we've got to meet sometime so I can buy you a beer ;-)
