based on their account submission history they have a 25% hit rate (!) Seems very, very weird.

  Totally unrelated but I google'd their username to see if there was a clue, and I had no idea this feed existed:

    ...does noob here just refer to a new (green) user? Or is it something else?

    Noob comes from newb, which comes from newbie. Some argue it comes from "nubile" but I don't personally buy that etymology. I distinctly remember "newb" followed by "noob" but that was eons ago.

    Always thought it was "new" but made to sound like "boob" because it's funny.

    And not related to Safire's "nattering nabobs of negativism," the originals of whom SF's Nob Hill eponymizes.
