You asked Jackie, I actually took the time to find it.
This particular quote gives an explaination.
| quote: | In some MMORPGs a newbie is anyone who is lower-leveled than the person making the remark, regardless of actual time spent playing the game. (For example, a level 80 player in RuneScape may consider a level 30 player a newbie, while a level 126 may consider the level 30 in turn as the Noob.) However, many 'noobs' are judged by their actions and obeyance of rules, especially in more realistic games. Some forums and MMORPGs have banned some of the more common spelling variations ("newb", "knob" , "nub", "noob", "no0b", "n00b", "nib", "nibblins", "Frodo Nibblins", "fruity noob", "newblet(s)", "nub sauce", "nubz", "nubcakes", "nublich", "nubzorz", "Niblit", "nob", "nab", "naab", and "nublets") in an attempt to reduce flame wars. This has, of course, led to more variations, such as "s00b", "ch00b", "fr00b" and "gl00b". It has also led to numerous character-swap versions such as "n()()b" and "n|_|b", both of which are used to bypass a swear filter.

it's n00b not noob.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N00b
this is my internet source, I shall converse with my geeks later.
in other words, you're n00b if you don't know that it's spelt n00b not nOOb.
