The noob by far. With the right guidance they can get very good. I have a kid on my team like that. :D

The newb in a heartbeat. Nothing worse than someone who thinks they know everything and refuse to acknowledge it when they are wrong.

I'd prefer to play with the newbs anyway, there is a lot of fun playing walk-ons with players that are simply awed at what they can do on the field. You lose a little of that in most intermediate levels. Though the only way to get your own game better is to play against those better than you, and I get a real kick out of that too :D

nO0B, i dont know about u guys, but when i play with others, we always have strategies, and i`d rather follow orders from someone who is better than me than try to be a hero, get shot, and cost my team the win. B)

Ya but if the person was experienced they would not brag they wouldn't be cocky either, just modest. Therefire I would take the experienced.

In woodsball I've been stuck in charge of a bunch of rental noobs defending a base. I was kind of worried that we were going to get mowed, but actually we didn't. I told them all good places to get and to ask for my help if they needed it. I just roved and helped lock down a lane if they needed it. I think we only lost a couple and one ran out of air. It was cool. So I'd definately take the noob.

I like either. I have a good time playing along side the new player that is trying and get a good chuckle at the "experienced" players antics.

True story.

I was playing rec ball with a small group of new players and 2 "experienced" players. They shouted thier orders before the game and took off.

I stood back with the new players and moved up to our 30 where one of "the" players were. He turns to me and orders; "Give me covering fire" I pump (Yes, I was shooting my SC Phantom), shoot in the general direction of the opponents and say "There you go, run boy." The two were quickly picked off and the new players and I finished off the other side. I was still smiling at the end of the game. I could have been lit up right after that and I still been amused by that game.

I do get a kick out of players ordering me around who were in diapers and drooling a little less on themselves when I started playing PB. :lol:
