I'm probably a noob for asking this but should i delete the older clients and download the new one?
I'm asking this mainly because they take up a lot of memory.
Anybody?

There is actually nothing wrong to being a noob, so long as it is taken in context. The word "noob" was taken from the word "newbie", meanign someone new, and has not yet learned what is considered average knowledge for whatever the person is new to. However, in SRO, some real noobs don't know what noob means, and use it to mean stupid, or idiot. Worst, it got mangled, and I have seen some players using it as noop. There is no P i Arabic, so they must've thought that they need to translate it, hence, the word noop.

If it is any consolation to you, every single player of SRO is or has been a noob once.

On to your Query. Yes, you should delete them.

haha, thanks.

can't believe i read the whole history on noob....

I guess I have to particulary apologize for being a geezer(old man) when it comes to computer games and the Internet.. The word noob started out way back in 1986 when all we had were BBS(Bulletin Board Systems) that we dial to. I was a computer games addict ever since the Commodore came out(a brand of a computer(1985).Back then, decency online was a must, or else, you simply lost your connection. The Internet is a relatively new thing, it started to boom only in 1997 in most countries. Turkey had it booming more recently, so forgive the kids who have no manners when they log in from there. most simply reflect their ill manners, and do(and will never) have no concept of Online decency).

np on being a geezer, i am too

as far as the manners thing, good manners are taught and learned

if you dont have them its not because of your age
being young is not an excuse, not being taught is also not an excuse

not wanting to learn is worse than not having manners

trying to teach some with bad manners has had some good results and then there are those who wont learn, just like being dumb mannerless boobs
