I don't really let it get me down, but it irritates me that I should be called a name.. Especially when it's one that doesn't describe me.. Is it happening to everyone or just me?

Cant say as i've been called one, but i've definately called others one.
However, the circumstances I believed warranted it, and usually only having to do with thier sailing abilities and shooting at my ship.
A ship that keeps circling mine as if im in SvS and trying to sink me... or trying to shoot at my ship period, that captain will get the noob label everytime
I've had low level players doing silly things that define noob, and I will occasionally call them one.
If your an experienced player and acting noobish just for a change, expect it.
Not saying you are or were but there have been a few instances, id come across someone acting the part, wait to be called one, and then state "No im not, I have umpteen maxed pirates.. etc etc". Well my only reply then is, well you were acting like a noob, what kind of response did you expect knowing as much as you say you do? noob.
In the few instances I may have been called one, if I am a noob, I just say "Everyone starts somewhere", and if not I pay the ignorance no attention other than laughing it off.
