So today I find myself wondering "Matt what is the origin of the word NOOB"
and since I talk to myself i was like "dude i really don't know BUT i bet somebody in dtoid land does". So i hopped on my level 75 epic fiery mount and galloped onto dtoid. 
Does anybody know what the word "noob" is derived from? It is a word I enjoy using SO SO MUCH, but its like when a five year old says testicle and then laughs because he doesn't know what it means. *why say newbie, i understand the new part but bie!?!?! what does BIE EVEN MEAN?!?!?*

The REAL root of "newbie" that it can be traced back to usage among U.S. troops in the Vietnam War as a slang term for a new man in a unit before entering popular discourse by way of the Internet.
