I answered you in RB, but since you've made a thread, I'll copy it here too:
I agree that people who have been around for a while need to be patient with newer players. Many people have no idea that there are even "correct" specs and rotations, or places you can go to look them up, so it's a good idea to be informative rather than dismissive if someone seems new and confused. It also makes sense that as the amount of things to do in the game increases, the time per thing decreases slightly so that it's not an impossible challenge to accomplish it all this late in the game.
However, new players should also understand that older players have certain things they want to get out of their game time, and may not have the time to spend repeatedly wiping on a dungeon they're only in to get points, or to take several raiding weeks off to gear brand new players from the ground up rather than progress through the content that's a challenge to them with equally progressed players. Old people should be courteous to new people, new people should be willing to accept that people who are more advanced don't have an obligation to spend all their time helping new players accomplish things they've already done at the expense of accomplishing anything new. I find that a lot of normal (non-elitist) people's complaints about new players is not that they're new, but that they expect to do whatever they want and still be entitled to enter whatever raid and dungeon they want regardless of whether they're holding everyone else back or not.
New players who want to play well, and are willing to take advice if it helps the team, don't stay "new players" very long. New players who tell people to mind their own business about how they play and just invite them to the raid can be new players for years and years.

"Noob" is a derogatory term. Especially when written in caps. The polite terms are: newcommer, novice, newbie.
These forums are full of veterans who go into great lengths to help newbies. Every day on Wowhead is "help a newbie day". You are crying on the wrong grave.

I'm going to move my response to you to the one you opened in General, because I think they're going to shut this one down- you can't cross post.

i'm on the hon bandwagon
hon is more competitive than dota, but i can't speak for league of legends.
league of legends i think, is in it's completely different class because it's so different.
