CRYPT3C W0LF Vherokior Combat Logistics Minmatar Republic 341	Posted - 2014.02.10 23:48:00 - [1] - Quote I've seen this term used by many posts on Dust and would like to make a point. According to Wikipedia: - rub (someone or something) hard so as to clean them, typically with a brush and water. - low shrub and grass characteristic of scrubland - a semiabrasive cosmetic lotion applied to the face or body in order to cleanse the skin. So How can you characterize a Player as a "Scrub." Are you referencing them as a inanimate object such as a Shrub or Grass? Do you perceive them as a Cosmetic Lotion that you apply to you're face? Or possibly an abrasive brush meant to clean? Where do these creatures roam, and where do they originate? But honestly, the term "scrub" is used far to much. It labels player/s or a group of people based on a Bias opinion in which there is no evidence to support the statement. Plus its naming and shaming, which is never truly a great thing. Do you see how laughable and foolish that is now? COOKIE MASTER RACE ^__^ Youtube, A Merc with a passion

Michael Arck Onuoto Uakan Huogaatsu 3149	Posted - 2014.02.10 23:58:00 - [7] - Quote Scrub has various meanings on the forums. It can be used in a deragatory fashion to belittle another player for his ideas or opinions. Then its used in contrast (i.e. an elite player saying, 'what? I'm a scrub').

rebecca watson OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 128	Posted - 2014.02.11 00:27:00 - [9] - Quote While I luvs me a good TLC reference, there is a very interesting take on this, from a Sirlin.net article some years ago. While "scrub" is generally considered a derogatory term for people who just 'aren't good', there's a more nuanced argument that gets at a psychological mindset that sets 'scrubs' apart from the 'elites'. Sirlin argues: "There is the mistaken notion, though, that by merely continuing to play or "learn" the game, that one can become a top player. In reality, the "scrub" has many more mental obstacles to overcome than anything actually going on during the game. The scrub has lost the game even before it starts. He's lost the game before he's chosen his character. He's lost the game even before the decision of which game is to be played has been made. His problem? He does not play to win." This has the overall result of losing more often, and avoiding whole other areas of playstyle or learning how to counter/protect against them. Introducing.... The Scrub

(the one where doctor cox loses 3 patience in one day) No way, the one where J.D. and Turk are playing hide and seek with the locator thing, and Turk gets the janitor to eat the locator, then J.D. always knows where the janitor is so he can hide from his ambushes....until the battery dies of course... lol I am here to ask you one question, and one question only: EXPLOSIONS?

Baron Mingus Algintal Core Gallente Federation 4	Posted - 2014.02.11 00:52:00 - [15] - Quote When I was a kid we used to play football after school. I remember an older kid used to come in the game and knock us all around, saying how he "loves hitting scrubs". I can't help but think of this every time I see the word. Some things never change haha.
