They're called whales in gaming.

a lot of the thread is “yikes a lot of heckin gatekeeping here!!”

I think that whales just splurge money no matter the game or what stage they play at. Perhaps we need a new classification, Linnaeus style . Whaleus Newfaggius or something.

> During the 70s skateboard era, there used to be a regular flow of kids into the skatepark where Dad had kitted them out from head-to-foot in all the best gear then dumped them into the park and driven off. They could barely ride a skateboard at all. To the rest of us, they were known as "gremlins" and I still use the term in that context to this day. I like gremlins though.

yeah, newfags is just what you call new people in order to drive the point that newbies should be seen and not heard.

My sister named her dog Mogwai after this movie.

Gearqueering can exist independent of experience though
