According to "Animosity", the definition of the word "nub" is:
"nub = newb, newbie, noob
This word is not from dumbasses who can't spell, but its from a game called Ultima Online. A Guild of rollplayers called the Shadow Orcs developted an orcish language based off english, changing a few 1337 speak words as well. Hence, Nub=noob in Shadow Orc.
panze humie, nub
panzy human, what a newb"
However, he is incorrect. While the word "nub" did originate in Ultima Online, it was the Shadow*clan* Orcs who coined it, as part of their invented language, based on the Black Speech of J.R.R. Tolkien. It actually stands for the word "no", much like the word "yub" stands for "yes". See "www.shadowclan.org/siegeperilous" for more information on this subject.

Someone who is a general dumbass, comes up with stupid ideas, causing you to groan in disbelief at his/her stupidity. This reaction is almost always followed by a back-handing type gesture, where the back of the right hand is forced into the palm of the other, making a loud slapping noise. (Referred to as a Nubslap).
The Nubslap is the only known way to keep a nub in line.
The advantages to using "nub" over "noob" or "newbie" is that it has a much quicker, harsher sound when spoken. You can also shout it without it sounding gay (NOOOOOOB sounds gay no matter what).

Nub: Hey mon, we should go to the dollar store and buy a bunch of Windex!
Person: What? Why?
(Nub maintains a shiteating grin while shrugging shoulders)
(Person performs a Nubslap)
Person: Fucking nub.

A newbie, esp. one that is too stupid to be called a newb.
Note that nub is not pronnounced "newb" or "noob". "Nub" rhymes with "sub" and "tub".

New players who are ignorant are called newbs. Players who are not new but still ignorant are called nubs.
