According to "Animosity", the definition of the word "nub" is: "nub = newb, newbie, noob This word is not from dumbasses who can't spell, but its from a game called Ultima Online. A Guild of rollplayers called the Shadow Orcs developted an orcish language based off english, changing a few 1337 speak words as well. Hence, Nub=noob in Shadow Orc. panze humie, nub panzy human, what a newb" However, he is incorrect. While the word "nub" did originate in Ultima Online, it was the Shadow*clan* Orcs who coined it, as part of their invented language, based on the Black Speech of J.R.R. Tolkien. It actually stands for the word "no", much like the word "yub" stands for "yes". See "www.shadowclan.org/siegeperilous" for more information on this subject.
