WoW did not invent 'noob.' That term predates the widespread adoption of the internet. I'm talking about Bulletin Board Systems, people. Of course, back then we weren't afraid of using two syllables for 'newbie.'

But I still voted WoW for the incredible amount of drama over trivial things. It's a nice microcosm for the real world.
