I hate when people use "QQ" in the wrong context more then the word noob tbh. People have no idea how "QQ" was even brought to be.

I've heard a lot of people say "You don't even know what QQ means!", then to explain it as "Quit Qrying"..

Others call it a smiley that looks like it's crying.

Ah, well.

Shhhhss... People it's simple: Noob derived from the word newbie, commonly used by teenagers online and mostly gaming.

Noob:
- Doesn't matter how long you've played, it can happen to the best of us.
- Is a "player" who sucks, or does something ******ed (due to lack of experience, mostly).
- Is momentarily, almost everyone has been called noob at something but got better, right?

PS: Those who have no will to learn, or have played for a long time but still suck are called Perma Noob!

Honestly, I dont have a problem with people calling me a noob, its just a word and at the end of the day, if we kill the heart, it doesnt matter. Though sometimes I like to feed the trollier ones out there just to see how childish they get. |D

QQ and TT can be used interchangeably. They both visually represent crying eyes. Or at least that is what I was told.

Q.Q
Q_Q
Q-Q
T_T
T.T
T-T

Etc, etc, etc.

But this is where misinterpretation comes back into action :) I am almost 100% sure that those smiley's are mere bastard children (as in born outside of marriage, no pun intended, I am one of those myself) of the origins of 'QQ'.

I really love how people use this word, it's really entertaining. The term "Noob" was just a thing to say when you were really pissed / annoyed at someone and to release some off your stress, but in reality who actually gets offended from someone calling them a Noob?
