Scrub is practically the same thing as noob, and noob doesn't need a page on the site.

A scrub is not the same thing as a noob. In Street Fighter terms, a scrub is willfully ignorant. A scrub makes their own set of rules to play by, which in turn makes them a lesser player. They lose, then blame everyone else but themselves.  
 
A noob is just a beginner. But don't listen to me. David Sirlin said it best. . .   http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/intermediates-guide.html

The concept is not really linked to video games themselves, but the people surrounding them. I don't know if the page is needed or not...

People who use terms like 'scrubs' and 'noobs' put me off competitive gaming. For what it's worth, I've heard the term 'scrub' used in Gears of War as well, not just Street Fighter.

This is exactly why we don't need a "scrub" page.
