The ProBro and You

[Jyoeru]

I had one calling me and my team (there was about 4-5 of us from the same FC) a bunch of noobs while finishing a Castrum run.

All level 50's, finishing a Castrum run, and yet we are noobs....I fail to see the logic there! lol

Noob is the mating call of a ProBro. He learned the word from the non-insulting word "newbie," which came from EverQuest folk I believe. Over time, newbie became noob, which I presume relates to the word boob, as though it is insulting to be either new or boob. When I hear the word noob, I presume the speaker finds me attractive, and I promptly remove all of my armor to show him/her my wares. I have pretty impressive wares. I'd noob me.

ProBro is that guy that tells the healer to "protect" at the start of the instance.
Normally while you are already casting it.

He will frequently request it after you've cast it, too. ProBro tanks will demand a protect while they're running deep into the bowels of a dungeon, and then get mad that they did not get their protect. Typically, this requires you to recast it as they gallantly grab every single mob on the map. Then they get mad that you stole all of the enmity.

Quality entertainment for a drunk, after work Kenni.

Thank you. :3

You're welcome I can't wait to get off work, get drunk, and do some more Stone Vigil!

a lot of this "probro" is coming from a... DPS i guess

am i raaaaiiiiittttt?

Only because DPS is the highest population of players. No one type is exclusively of this mindset. Though, I did have a very cute DPS ProBro today, and it is to him this post is dedicated!
