at what time frame is a noob not considered one? From what ive seen on the forums and during game play...some of the quote unquote vets want nothing to do with these people who might have seen the commercial or heard it from a friend and might want to give the game a chance. Let the flaming begin!!

A good start is when you stop worrying about what others think :aok
-
at what time frame is a noob not considered one?
When HO'ing isn't considered "A valid tactic" one begins the journey to not being a noob. Some turds never get past this point.
-
The way I see it is when you learn the way the game works and start doing things that are actually beneficial to the country your flying for you stop being a noob.

I HO when I have to, does that make me a noob?
And never forget, it takes 2 to go on a HO, never complain about it.

Then i guess ill have to go to the new TA... turds anonymous cuz i HO when i either see them fire first or they are in my sights. :S:

And never forget, it takes 2 to go on a HO,
WRONG
Two to HO one to merge... as it has always been.
-
I think everyone is guilty of a HO. HO = Head On. I see nowhere in that term the word "Shot". Do we not all at some point go 'Head On' in a merge?
Takes two to HO, but only one to take a shot on that HO. Thus it would be a HOS, right? :D
Ok, I will stop being a smarta--, gets me in trouble more often than not. :P

When you stop trying to run troops to the field instead of the town. :D (watched someone drive an LVT from the town to the field the other night while everyone was telling him on VOX to turn around... they were surprisingly nice about it though)
When one of the infamous "good sticks" sends you a <S> after a fight.
And I really do think that *most* people here are willing to help out a noob. But the noob has to be willing to help themselves too. Nobody wants to hold your hand and explain every detail of the game, but most people are more than willing to help out someone who shows that they're willing to do some reading and practice.
But don't take my word for it, I've been playing for six months and some of these guys make me feel like a noob on a daily basis.
<S>

Once they figure out what 2 weeks really means here.

noob timeframe ends once you don't have to spam country channel with questions that can be answered on the trainers site.
which is:

-
Someone stops being a noob after they stop doing things such as dropping troops on the field, asking questions that could easily be found on trainer page, is reliable to call upon for things like an m3 to town, stops logging on and flying at A1 asking where the baddies are.

You stop being a noob when you can fly two planes with a decent ability to get in and out of battle (furball) with a decent success rate imo.
I JUST barely cross that threshold....2 years btw.
I don't mean a few times, I mean being able to take a p51 and be confident that no matter what you match up against, you see whats coming and know how to handle it.
As goes with me for the KI and my ability to evade or fight my way out.
Assuming you don't get overwhelmed like 5 to 1 that is...I'm thinking more like 2v1 or 3v1 situations.

As soon as you understand how things work.

Losing noobness is understanding a merge.
It is also understanding E, in a very basic form.
Do these simple things, and you're already better than 40% of the MA. And you'll only improve your percentile from there.

well that sux I have been here since around tour 52, still a noob, don't care about how the "chess pieces" are doing in the "war". I've just been flying for the fight.
you stop being a noob when you can take any plane up(if that is your choice of vehicle) and no matter what you encounter, know what you need do to kill it, in other words, knowing all of the planes "stats" what they excel at and what there weaknesses are.
took me about 4 months to declare my self a non-noob.
being able to utilize that knowledge and coming out on top, when you start from a disadvantage, whether it be Alt, numbers, or plane type, this is when you become "UBER" or "elite" or "A PRO" or whatever word you use.
