There are two ways with dealing with people that like to annoy and mutter "noob" frequently...

As the old saying goes, "kill 'em with kindness"...aka "Hey you're right! I am new to this! Perhaps YOU, with your vast knowledge, could help further me along in this most tedious of games?"

Or try this...just make sure you have a friend who's in on it to do this with you...

Annoying Person: You're such a noob!
Me: OMG, did he just call me a "noob" ?!?
Friend: Apparently he must be new to gaming or hasn't caught onto the latest trend...
Annoying Person: Huh?
Me: When you say the word "noob", you're pronouncing it wrong...
Friend: Yes, it's actually pronounced "No-Oh-Bee"...
Me: Y'know, like Garfield's friend Odie...it sounds like that...
Annoying Person: What?
Me: People are no longer called "noob" cause of the mis-pronounciation...
Friend: Nowadays the proper term is "Newper" which is short for new person...
Me: I think you're right...this guy hasn't gamed long or just doesn't know the new slang...
Friend: He's such a "Newper"...
Me: Yep...go away Newper until you learn the proper gaming terms...
Friend: LOL! Such a Newper!
