metatron Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I beleive that some people also use their l337 tude to blow off questions they don't know the answer to. I asked a question about a circuitboard on IRC that was not easily searchable, I had already tried, from someone who claimed to be a wiz at that technology. Instead of just saying he didn't know where to find the schematics, I just got a n00b bashing sequence followed by a just.fucking.google.it I still haven't found my answer but will not go back to that channel again so they can be so l337 that they are alone. Now I know why there were 4 people in that room and noone was talking.<climbs back off soapbox> What’s the question and we will see if anyone can answer it.

Atari6502 Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Isn't there a distinction between noobs and newbies? I thought noobs WERE a**holes, such as asking how to get admin password at school, etc. And newbies are the ones who simply need some direction.

lunytunz42 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I was looking for the schematics for the roomba mainboard. As this is a popular robot hack I am sure they are out there hiding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
