NO I dont think we should it sends out the wrong message about us.  Using N00bs like that, maybe New Players welcome

what's wrong with N00B?

6 out of the top 25 servers have it in their name?? Also, we need to consider the length of the server name that is allowed which I think is 49 or 50.

jebus you guys are a fickle bunch..

It would be better to use a different word imo. maybe beginner or newbie or something other than n00b.
but the idea is solid :)

I voted yes

Yes but we are a mature and I bet the top 6 servers are just pure run and fun :)

n00b servers are generally max rank of some sort, new players welcome would be better as the other people stated

Voted YES. Frankly I don't think it sends out a "wrong message". An empty server every night is about the worst message we can send. Are sending.

Do you want to fill the server with noobs ?
Do you want to fill the server with people who like to kill noobs ?

Its almost like saying "Trash talking base rape tubers this is the fella for you!"

Well maybe not quite that harsh but as soon as I see n00b in my server list I pass it over :D

I think you're confusing "noob" (newbie) with "total knob". We welcome noobs and kick knobs.

Is it my imagination or are the people voting "no" not regular players? It's all very well to say "keep it elite", but i'd rather be leading newbie's by example on a full server, weeding out the bad apples, than having the "l33t-est" empty server on the net...

I think the poll is worded badly, I voted NO cos I thought I was voting to not put "Noob" in our server banner.

For the most part, “n00b”, when used in-game by a player is a derogatory comment, so I voted no.  Do we and should we welcome new players with any amount of experience, of course we should and I believe we do.  â€œNew players welcome” or “Beginners” or whatever along those lines I think would be good.
