Shouldn't being a no-lifer be considered a compliment rather than the latter?
Often noobs like myself have deemed those folks who are too good for their own good as no-lifers. But since the word 'noob' has been adopted in the game industry as someone who's a 'newbie' or just someone who SUCKS. Shouldn't the term no-lifer be adapted as someone who plays a game extremely well..to the point it seems the person has done nothing with their life but practice and play a genre to the point of perfection?
Folks who get called no-lifer take it as an insult, almost providing some guilt that suggests they do indeed have 'no-life'. But to be a no-lifer means you've just played that genre for a long time, and apparently have acheived mass skill from such a long period of time playing it.
Like in C.O.D., no-lifers have probably played first person shooters for DECADES, all the way back to the wolfenstein/doom days, so when they play the new age games like C.O.D., it's easy for them to piss off everyone in the lobby with their 190-2 K/D every game. So wouldn't it suggest to be called a no-lifer means you just have a lot of skill?
Would it be the new term for the gaming age? Your thoughts folks...it's greatly appreciated.

"No-lifers" are used by players for players that are really good at a game. it meens that the player that is a "no-lifer" has no life and only cares for gaming (thats a bad thing). Mostly the players that lose against these good players call them nolifers to feel beter about them selves for their lack of skill.
