100) If you waltz into HazBot1 and blow your first 1000 credits on a Havoc/Sakura, you are a n00b.
101) If you think you can stop 6 Flame Tanks with 10 Havocs and Nothing Else, you are a n00b.
102) If you leave a vehicle in the middle of nowhere with nobody to even guard it, you are a n00b.
103) If you can't kill a MLRS with a Rav, you just might be a n00b.
104) If you don't know what mines are for, you are a n00b.

I was playing on Jelly-Games AOW in Siege once, as Nod. I had bought a SBH+Nuke and was trying to Harvy-walk into GDI's base, when, lo and behold, a pack of rushing teammates took out the AGT! Peeling off from behind GDI's Harvester, I noticed a seemingly abandoned GDI Medium Tank just sitting in GDI's base. I grabbed it and managed to get credit for killing 2 buildings with the thing.

105) you buy buggies and hummvees to perform full frontal assaults on armoured tanks with no backup.
106) you were killed by a tank; this angered you, so to get back at them as fast as possible you bought a buggy and didn't change your Nod soldier. you were wasted again. noob.
107) you don't understand the mine system but berate people who do because you think they're screwing up when they aren't.
108) you throw down your C4 and surrender in an AOW game.
(note: i would actually like taking prisoners as it would take from their player count, it's just that most people who try this get wasted and don't understand why.)

XpHaZe Infantry ~Marathon~ has spawned a few new ones for me.
Now, ya might be a n00b if. . .
109) . . .when instructed(either personally or impersonally) to mine your base, you refuse to do so.
110) . . .you have a cloaked unit and don't open fire on someone ripping your ally a new one because you want to remain cloaked.
111) . . .you ignore activated Beacons, even though they're right within earshot and you're an Engineer or a Hotwire/Technician.
112) . . .you don't keep the people deactivating Beacons covered.
113) . . .you place Beacons in tunnels.
114) . . .you invest all your piles of Credits in Beacons, then place all you afford in front of a nearby Purchase Terminal one after another, either because it's near the end of the game, or just for the Hell of it.(This especially applies if you're doing it to make a bunch of noise and/or lag the Hell out of everyone.)
115) . . .you think that being cloaked means you're completely and utterly invisible to everyone at any distance, especially if you put a blank "cloaked effects" skin in your local directory.
116) . . .you quietly stalk someone as a cloaked unit then get ticked when they spin around and shoot you right between the eyes.(No excuses. We can still hear you. In most maps. . . Damned Hourglass tunnels. . .)
117) . . .you don't think you're doing a bad job even though the only person on your team doing anything worth doing says that you suck. This doesn't apply if you're doing something productive, even if it's just repairing the Harvester or something.
Edit: Fixed the numbers.

118) you are a noob if you shoot armoured tanks with a sakura then argue your case when you are found out and confronted.
119) If you purchase an orca on walls fly while snipers are abound on the clifftop, then fly up and get owned in 2 seconds flat, you're a noob.
120) you buy an orca, shoot at enemy buildings from way out of range and think your missiles are actually hitting.
121) you act like a big man taking over the tunnels on field with a Nod soldier, when in fact there was nobody there to take it over from.
122) you think you're in control of the tunnels with a Nod soldier and you get blown away and laughed at when GDI decides to return.
123) you get mad at dying so you continually charge the offender, c4 in hand, and die 50 times in an attempt to get close and plant the c4 on them.

124) you make a skin for the GDI soldier that says "fuck bush".
125) you lay beacon after beacon at the enemy base and they always get disarmed, giving the enemy thousands of points. your teammates keep screaming "NO MORE BEACONS!!!" but you don't listen.
126) you think a hummvee will be able to drive past a horde of flames, lights, arties, laser gunners and raveshaws, and you attempt it.
127) you always lay beacons at the same place.
128) you lay a beacon and don't defend it because "the area must be evacuated before the strike hits".
129) you lay a beacon and realise you forgot to bring toilet paper.

Here we go again, folks.
Ya might very well be a n00b if. . .
130) . . .a vote is initialized to kick someone for a valid reason(Tunnel Beacons, Beacon spamming, driving vehicles in tunnels, hillcamping, etc.) and you don't vote. Remember, if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
131) . . .you hillcamp, tunnel-Beacon, drive vehicles in tunnels, break any server's clearly-written rules, or just generally make an ass of yourself in a server.
132) . . .you're an admin for a server and "see" something happening(weither it be in-game or through the console) but don't step in to put a stop to it.
133) . . .you continue to use a Black Hand unit(Laser Chaingunner) against an Officer even though the Officer keeps kicking your butt.(I'm way guilty of this one.)
134) . . .you get into a fight with a unit on the other team, then when you beat them, you call them a "<unit> n00b" for no apparent reason other than you beat them. This especially applies if the person you beat is using a "non-tactical" unit; a unit without Stealth or secondary functions on their weapons. It's debatable if this also transfers over into Vehicle vs. Vehicle fights. But on that note. . .
135) . . .you call someone a "Mendoza/Mobius n00b" after beating them with your Infantry, even though they were able to take out your Mammoth or Flame Tank all by themselves.

136. you change important things when making a map, like increasing the mammoth missile range, winding up in very unbalanced fights between infantry and mammoths. especially bad when the missile range is higher than mendoza's volt gun, rendering it pointless to give chase to a mammoth.

#137. You're a Havoc/Sakura, you've spent the entire game shooting heavy tanks for points, your team loses by basekill and you don't think it's your fault.

Ya might be a n00b if. . .
138) . . .every time you get completely owned by a Sniper who's using RenGuard, you claim "hax," "cheater," or say something along the lines of "kick <so-and-so> he's a cheater!!" without valid proof. This is especially true when said sniper has a score lower than the top 3.
139) . . .you go AFK for an entire match or longer after purchasing and hopping into any vehicle and don't announce you're going AFK.
140) . . .you have to ask how to purchase the normal units and vehicles.
141) . . .you continually "attack" your own team out of sheer boredom. Even if Friendly Fire is off, this is highly annoying. And on that same note. . .
142) . . .you heal or attack an ally Stealthed Unit who is hiding in plain sight.

143) You jump straight into multiplayer rene without knowing the first thing about it, and how to play, and hence ask people questions you should have answered for yourself if you had even went through the tutorial mission.

Apparently you're a noob for
144) back attacking
145) killing enemy snipers with a vehicle even if it means your teammates are dying.
Seperately...
146) servers that don't allow killing people inside a base with an APC, even if it means there are engineers going to save a building/ infantry shooting at your teammates vehicles

Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

Oh, shit, was that you?

Maybe. Maybe not. I generally stick with Stealth Black Hand units(Laser Chaingunners) unless we're in absolute turmoil. But it is happened before. Not just to me, but to a few other people I've seen. But most recently, a Sniper unit decided to try and hide behind me and use me as a human meat shield on some server. A. Sniper. Unit. And they kept firing while hiding behind me, too. Honestly, that's not a terrible strategy if you can avoid hitting the Stealth Black Hand unit.(And you got his go-ahead for "Operation: Stealth Meat Shield". . .) But you're not real likely to find someone willing to waste 400/800 Credits like that. Anyway. . .
Ya might be a n00b if. . .
147) . . .you think Walljumping by yourself on any server isn't an exploit.
148) . . .you think your can justify cheating/exploiting by way of calling the opposite team "campers". This is especially when the other team is either defending their base from a massive invasion, or dying so much they're constantly respawning.
149) . . .you like root beer but drink anything less than IBC Root Beer while playing. :3
And now. . .the moment you've all been waiting for. . .
150 for teh wen!!) You might very well be a n00b if you can't be arsed to say full words over voice-chat and instead use net abbreviations such as "lol," "gg," or "omfg".
