'Noob' Basically means 'new'. (Pronounce it noo-b). It's usually used on websites that has members. New members would be called 'noobs'. For example, if you have just joined Advicenators then you could be called a 'noob'.

If you don't know what it means, you are one. Nice near-circular definition, eh? :)
Last I heard it was short for 'newbie,' a British-origin slang word which is, itself, short for "new boy." The definition has evolved slightly since then, as evidenced by the other posts. Note that it's non-gender-specific now.

Its really a very mean word in the gaming world. A combination of rookie and retard if you like. Sometimes they mean it closer to one, sometimes closer to the other. Ugh I hate when people use that word... I wonder how they ever expect new people to start playing?
I dont know what game you are playing (I am a counterstrike player myself), but when someone starts throwing that word around its extra pleasurable to make an example of them hehe :)

According to urbandictionary.com, a 'noob' is a person who is new and/or inexperienced to an environment or situation, but doesn't admit it. They are someone who continually fails and does not learn from their mistakes, and repeats the process.
Whereas a 'newb' is someone who wants to get better.
