just watched the walking dead series back to back and It struck me how newbies are like zombies in their behavior...

they are uncoordinated and clumsy yet deadly
they always sneak up on you when least expect it
they crowd the place until you are surrounded and unable to escape
they are many and tend to all congregate towards you unrelentingly
no matter where you go they'll find you and get in your way...

worst of all, they get on my nerves and make me want to smash their brains!

Anyhow, I should stop watching zombie related content for a while me thinks...

Spot on.

note to the noobs who might read that: I've been there, been one of you guys, it's not hate and when you become good you'll see why it gets annoying sometimes. Smashing brains was more a reference to how you get rid of a zombie...

for the spelling, corrected by the US based google chrome... meh.

Just zoom around them and find a spot upwind the newbies can't get to. The ocean is a big place. surely you can find a peice of it thats not cluttered with newbies.

Except when you are kiting eddies at lancelin and they seem to want to mow the lawn right up to the impact zone of the wave then turn around just before as you are trying to come down the line....aaahhhh.

Hey he's just having a laugh, we've all been there. Patience. Or just keep jumping over them until they stop fluffing about before the impact zone..my bad
