I don't command anyways. I need more experience and when I get more experience, I'll use a fair faction.
There is no such thing as a "fair" faction. If you want fair go play something with real rules, like cards or board games. I would suggest the game of life. Every faction can win against another faction, no matter what. Fair is for people that can't win otherwise.

IB is saying you are still a newbie long story short.

See if you remove the "when" as he hints at when you say "when" then it means you are still a newbie as you never outgrew it
I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday

"When"?!





Get it now?

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.

It's not exclusive and no entry it only seems that way. In reality, nobody is ever accepted as a "vet" by anyone so everyone can reserve the right to call everyone else a newb.

This works best when the term "newb" is applied by a more experienced player to a less experienced player. Thus, although crono has been playing for over two years, Spidy still can call him a newb, since spidy's been playing for like, ever. But Pook, who was playing before spidy was born, can call Spidy a newb and it's still all good.

Of course, the fact that IB is newer than Crono and is applying the label to crono $#@!s up the whole system but really, who pays IB any serious attention anyway?
