1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: newbie /n[y]oo'bee/, n. [very common; orig. from British public-school and military slang variant of ?new boy?] A Usenet neophyte. This term surfaced in the newsgroup talk.bizarre but is now in wide use (the combination ?clueless newbie? is especially common). Criteria for being considered a newbie vary wildly; a person can be called a newbie in one newsgroup while remaining a respected regular in another. The label newbie is sometimes applied as a serious insult to a person who has been around Usenet for a long time but who carefully hides all evidence of having a clue. See B1FF; see also {gnubie }. Compare chainik, luser.
