Are You A Newbie?

Are You A Newbie?

Who is a newbie in the real sense of the word? I came across this word in Bubblews, a site that went over.

 

When you were called a newbie it meant that you were new. It also meant that you do not really know how to go about in the site. You needed somebody to tell you how.

 

My assumption then is that a newbie is a new person. It is the opposite of oldie. New does not mean that you have been born anew. No! It means you are a beginner.’ Bie’ must be a coining of ‘by’. The word means by way of. The word is used like in passerby means a person who is passing. Newbie also is not permanent. It may be the name which should pass or the person.

 

It beats me how long we should call a person a newbie. What will qualify him to be an oldie! Is it his work or his staying for long? Maybe we should judge him by how good he is in maneuvering his way around a site, company or any other.

How long should it take for a visitor to be a host? This is quite a challenging question. You may say that a visitor will always be a visitor and likewise a host. You are probably right. What if a visitor overstays the visit? He is no longer a visitor but a host.

 

The visitor who overstays his visit will know all his ways round your home. He will assist in the normal activities of the home. He may know where all the property of the home is kept.

 

The same applies to a newbie. He is no longer a newbie if he knows his way around the site or company. E can explain the site or company better than its owners. That is an oldie now.

    • With regards to my level here, I am newbie, no doubt about it. But with regards in life, I am no beginner now. My age just show it that I am no newbie anymore. Experienced is what I live in my younger years and putting it in my life now.

      But maybe, we are all newbie here. Many things we have not yet explored. Maybe when the truth reveal to us, that will be the time we are considered to be 'experienced' and not just 'oldie'.

    • Everybody who comes and registers himself with the is a newbie. He should read, write ,make friendship with others, exchange ideas, and explore the site thoroughly first for himself. Till such time he will be considered as a newbie only.

      Some people by virtue of their rich experience with the other sites and having seen so many varieties of designs and going through many WordPress patterns may quickly understand the site in exploring the things. Still, he is a newbie only. On the internet, there is no such things as experienced and inexperienced. It is only how you are interacting and how much time you are spending your time over the site. Mere staying over the site for the whole day without any contribution will not dub him as experienced.

      So what is the criteria to be followed in conferring a title like POPULAR in a site?.

      It depends on the Admin most of the times. But, in genral the number of posts one has contributed to the site and the quality and quantity of the post.

    • It is right when person joins a new site he becomes newbie on the site and he needs others at every step but on LB kind and cordial people are present who the newbie how to use the site is a good thing and I think it is a good idea to guide others at every step.

      Those who know already something is the blessing of God because knowledge for man is a gift of God. When someone shares his knowledge God and angels welcome the person and become happy looking someone teaching something means he is spreading light in the world of gloom will lead this step to heaven.

      Those who know about the secrets of LB how to earn fast must share to the newbie so that he or she could increase earning.

    • I still think of myself as a newbie due to the time i have been on the site. I am still trying to get around and see if i find some people to chat with on forums but this is more difficult here.

      A newbie is supposed to be a new person to a certainthing that has no knowledge of what he or she is supposed to do and the time that they have been doing it also.

      Once you have some experience in whatever you were a newbie at then you lose the title. At least that is how is see it.
