I think, however, the word "n00b" and other such variants aren't so great. They suggest more to the "can't type" category than the "new member" category, and I don't like that, as a lot of newbies can type better than some of our longest standing veterans. This is why I think people should be judged not by the date of their registration, but by the content of their posts.
Except that most of the internet is powered by elitist morons who call anyone new a "n00b", which is what has led to me hating the roots of the tree which has sprung from that word.

And I really don't care about when someone joined either, your point is very good, I wish to subscribe to your pornographic newsletter.

But not the party, obviously, duh.
