I demand explanations! I figure it's the fastest way to stop feeling like a moron.

1) Noob? Is this a generally accepted term with a generally accepted definition that I've missed in my too-busy-to-be-on-the-computer-ness?
2) What is DVORAK?
3) Is your last sentence even in english?

1. a noob (or /\/()()|3) is someone who sucks at games (or life, in the extended sense of the word), whether because they have no skrillz, or because they are new to the game. it comes from "newbie," and evolved into the phonetic noob (noo-be).
2. DVORAK is a more efficient keyboard layout then QWERTY (look down at your right hand)
3. It's in english. sort of. My Dwarvish Hunter has reached lvl 60, and is now in the big dungeons for characters of that lvl.

GG = "good game," meaning, well done, or, in this case, "ethan's a huge noob, omgwtfroflcopterslolerskates!!!!1111"

Hahaha, mucho thanks.

They went through and made a more efficient keyboard? Sounds like a fabulous idea. I should research this. (And, I actually did know what QWERTY was. Go me!)
