Respect

Respect is a vital thing you need to play this game. Without it, you WILL be hated by everyone.
To earn respect:
Learn some grammar. Don't do this, "i pwn u wiv ma uber cl equipz and skills" That will just get you laughed at.
Don't Beg. If you do beg,
A bad approach: "plz mesos plz"
A better approach: "Hey, can I have some mesos please?"
Be Nice... If you act nasty, no one will want to make friends with you.
Be yourself, talk about stuff, and find people who are Just like You!
What makes a noob?
There are two different kinds. There's the typical noob: These are new guys who have no idea on how to play, yet they act as if they do. They'll beg, KS, scam, hack. And basically try to make everyone's life a living nightmare. Secondly, you'll notice the occasional newbie. Newbs are the poor guys, new to the game, just wanting a little help. Be nice to them.

Partiers

These guys are extremely annoying. You get a fair share of them when training in Viking parties. There's that one bottomer who suddenly decides to AFK for large periods of time, leeching the experience. KICK IMMEDIATELY PLZ.

Leeching

Leeching is where someone will sit and watch their party members train, not making any effort to help, and if they aren't sitting there, they're running around stealing the meso drops.

KSers

KSing, or 'Kill stealing' is an act in which a person starts killing a monster what you're killing. The experience is split, making training tedious.

Kill steal accusors

Say you wanted to go to the Henesys hunting ground with your friends, and you were a really high level. You go to the top area and start killing some green mushrooms with your buddies. There'll be a couple of people who come minutes after and start fighting. Sometimes, if they can't get any kills in, they start moaning. And they say things like: 'omg stop ksing!' But I don't understand why they can't just change channel, they'll refuse to do it.

Stalkers

When you go around, maybe yelling out,"Selling rare weapons!" in Kerning City or something, a nub notices you and starts trading you and begging you for some items or mesos. Then, if they didn't what they want, they would F4 and start stalking you. Report him.

Stealing

When you wanted to give your good friend something like a Korean Fan and decided you were too lazy to trade,and you dropped it on the ground. Some stupid level 24 noob comes by and takes it and acts like nothing happened. First, you can defame him/her. Then you can get your guildies and start group defaming. When he tries to defame you, report him or run off to Monster Carnival. When he tracks you down and figures you are in someplace that he could reach, he'll be so annoyed. It's hilarious.

Noobish item buying/selling

When you go to the free market, you expect to buy or sell something, right? You'll sometimes come across a person who wants to sell something for an idiotic price. This guy wanted to sell me some Charms of the Undead for 500 mesos each. So watch what you buy and sell, and find out some values on the internet firsthand. Don't get scammed.

Rapid Trade/Messenger/Party requesting

When you fall out with a really immature person they start requesting you to do stuff really fast, when you cancel it, the message comes again, and when you accept, they cancel it. It's really hard to avoid, and you sometimes have to put up with it until they get tired.

The "Game"

Some noobs in the game will ask you if you want to play a game. If this game is something like, "0K U DROP 4 ITMS FRST AND IWILL DROP 4 OF MNE" Don't trust this. The only possible outcome to accepting and playing this "Game" is complete failure. The noob will steal all of your items, teleport a few times, and log out or use a scroll before you get to Report him. The first time someone asks you if you want to play a game where you have to drop items, Defame and Warn him and switch channels before he gets to do the same to you.
