nono, you misunderstand.
a newbie is somebody new to a game and is learning (allbeit sometimes slowly) as you say everybody is a newbie at somepoint (I am not ashamed of the fact that I am a newbie in several games

). However a n00b is somebody so hopelesly (Or intentionally ) bad at a game that they bring down the fun from everybody else. The type of person who steals their teams only vehicle and gives it to the enemy (Knowing that friendly fire is disabled and his own team are powerless to stop him), the type of person who cheats on multiplayers (aimbots, invincability etc) the type of person in a strategy game who joins a 2v2 game and quits as soon as the game starts leaving his former ally 1v2 (sometimes this is an accident but often its n00bs)
I think I made my point
