Need to coin a term!
I think that we should start a movement to coin a name for all the Vanilla players. Something easy to refer to them as when you're complaining to your squad.
Any suggestions?
I say 'Nillas.

sure, lets create a word that has a derogatory implication, segregating the so-called elite PR-ers and those who potentially could be hard-core PR-ers.
no thanks. i don't believe in elitism, especially within a mod community. that kind of thinking is what makes the CS community, oh so 'great'.
from my point of view, noobs are newbs. it is up to us to show them the way. if the individual is just an asshat, then kick him/her from the server.

LoL. When we hear someone shout "Bloody Muppets" we will know who did it.

i prefer muppets. It's
A) Funny
B) Much less obvious as to its direct meaning
C) Funny
But, whoever was talking about elitism is 100% right. What we DON't need is an elite bunch. This will be horrible for the mod. People who would normally want to try to learn the ropes will be disgusted and pissed off at the 'experts', either thier skills or their mentality, or both. Muppets is fine because it is more general. noob doesnt work so well as it is a mod.. and noob is too diversive.
Bottom line, you can say whatever the hell you want, but just be aware of the consequences. If you act like an elitist jackass, to expect to see too many more 'nillas' excited in playing.

Muppet is just a general term for someone acting momenterily idiotically and doesn't really have a specific link to BF2 or PRMM.
If we're even considering this daft suggestion at least have a word that has a specific link/history to "BF2 players shock at PRMM game mechanics" and not some already used general term.
