CHARVER

A Charver is a sub-species of the human race. Occasionally a perfectly normal family will give birth to one of these creatures. In ancient times, survival of the fittest nearly always killed of these unfortunates. However, thanks to Clement Atlee and the Welfare State, they now have a means to survive. Several different types of charver exist- True Charvers, who have an average IQ score roughly the same as a snail, and find it funny to drink, smoke, sleep with young girls/old men and fight one another. Then there are Scum Charvers, like True charvers, but average at four foot ten in hight, and will only swear at you if they outnumber you twenty to one. There are several other varieties, such as townies, radgies etc. All varieties are native to the North East, especially Newcastle. Charvers are now spreading, and take hold whrever the welfare system can be manipulated.

Examples of charver talk
"Uh, got ten pence for some tabs how"
"Where am a? Idont remember goin to sleep here, man like how"
etc, etc

carebear

Term applied by PvP (player vs. player) participants in an online role-playing game to those players are disinterested in PvP conflict. Usually derogatory.

Antonyms: Ganker, griefer, PK scum.

Me and the boyz used to gank everybody at the crossroads, before the damned carebears got the rules changed.

carebear

Back in the day, Carebear referred to a person or a game mechanic which eliminated or reduced all risk and challenge and realism from the game.

These days people throw the term carebear around to mean ANYTHING derotagory. Want to craft? You're a carebear! Don't want to play an mmorpg like a first person shooter? You're a carebear! Don't like to play the game like I play the game? You're a carebear!

The term carebear has become mangled and meaningless. But it used to mean something important to hardcore gamers.

Examples of the ORIGINAL term are:

No full loot was "carebear"
Safe zones were "carebear"
Limits on who you can attack and where you can attack them were "carebear."
Limits on freedom in general were "carebear."
Instances were "carebear."

Carebears were people who wanted devs to develop/change games to make their gaming experience easy, safe, and cozy. No risk, no challenge, no realism. Cozy like a carebear.

charver

Found in the north-east of the UK in Newcastle. Typically hang around street corners shouting abuse at people and smoking ciggarettes. Wear burghaus coats and rockport shoes and the famous stripy jumpers. The females like to spend ridiculous amounts of hairspray on their fringes. The scum of Newcastle. They use such phrases as: "Well aye" "I'm gaan ken to get some scran" "Here man you c*nt!" They always fiercly deny their charver-ism. I don't blame them.

Carebear Channel

Widely used in MMORPG Games (Mass Multi-player Online Role-playing Game). It's used to define a game channel which PK (Player Kill) is prohibited and therefore players can play in peace without unreasonable interferences from other players. The word "Carebear" is used because the players playing in those channels are deemed by other players to be cowards and wanted to be protected rather than facing the harsh world of reality where there's bound to be PK.

If you do not want to be PKed for no reasons by some lunatics, especially the mapletards, please switch your game channel to the Carebear Channel.
