oldbie

The opposite of newbie.
Someone who has been around for quite some time, and knows how to do things.

Short definition: opposite to a newbie

long definition: Someone who grew up in a time now considered old school. An oldbie is someone who grew up in a time when facebook and smartphones didn't exist. This doesn't mean we weren't social animals, in fact, us oldbies regularly hung out and met people the good old fashioned way and had a freakin' awesome time. Back then, pills were cheap, cannabis was still class C, music wasn't as watered down and shit as it is now, but above all, people were REAL.

Facebook turned those who were Generation Y/Z into spoilt, internet tards with too much time on their hands. Generation Z now live sheltered lives with their parents and expensive gadgets. I feel sorry for you newbies, we grew up in the golden age of cartoons and did stuff the hard way. There was a time when we had free parties without interference from the law; and people had real experiences (e.g. camping) without the whole world knowing about it...

Term generously applied to oneself to make oneself feel better, and to mask the fact that one's head is so far up one's ass that they can't apply nor comprehend common logic; i.e., someone who ruins online roleplay by criticizing it, when the term "oldbie" originated on AIM via roleplay. Nearly always self applied status, as practically no one would call another an oldbie unless asked.
