You never stop being a noob. Right from day 1 until the game shuts down, you will still be a noob. You just start thinking your not, and so do others, but you still are

I think ya stop being a n00b at the time ya have more answers then questions.
Allso helping other peeps with their questions when ya can stops ya being a n00b.
Then again a n00b is a sort of honorary title, since yer not spoiled yet and ya actually communicate with people still in a normal manor and don't feel the need to call other people names for making mistakes.
Better to try and fail, then to fail due to not trying |

Depends very much on the point of view.
Normaly, only those players are "noob", who are actually new to the game.
Means after some weeks (maybe few months), you automatically stop beeing a noob.
Although, some players use it for anyone who is not better or at least as good as they are.
("Yeah, kicked your ass with 10% hull remaining. You NOOOOB!")
My favourite use of the word is for anyone who talks about the game without having a clue of what he says.
For example, if my former CEO said "Lol Ravens are crap for PvP" and in reality it's one of the most used ships, he's still a n00b, although playing for over a year.
Another example for that would be a person who says that doing missions is automatically noobish. I know a player who plays since almost the beginning, is founder and head of an alliance and still does missions. If he is still a noob, then ... o_0

.
link to the wiki here
Straight paste from teh wiki:
"Newb vs. noob
Newb and noob may have somewhat different connotations. Newbs are simply newcomersłnoob and n00b, on the other hand, generally means someone who is obnoxious, annoying, or breaks the rules; whether they are actual newcomers or not is mostly irrelevant. Therefore, a noob may be someone who has been around for a long time but still engages in behavior that he or she should have learned is unacceptable. Noobs are generally confident in what they are doing, but in reality are annoying others. "Newb" is not necessarily an insulting word, but "noob" usually is. If someone makes an unintelligent comment on a forum or asks a question that even other newbies could answer then it is said that they are making a "noobish" comment or asking a "noobish" question. However, due to the evolution of language, the term noob or 'n00b' is now used both ways and newb is used only infrequently.
More experienced players are often encouraged to give friendly advice and help to newbs, to support them as they tackle the learning curve of whichever game they're playing, and some game servers are set up explicitly for the purpose of allowing newbs to gain experience before entering more competitive environments.
"Noob" can also mean a person who claims to know a lot about a subject but in truth does not. It was first used in hacker groups on the BBS chat systems in the 1980s. It is important to note that noob and newb are not necessarily interchangeable. Many times the term noob or n00b will be used by veterans to degrade a user for their lack of knowledge, or claims to know more than they truly do.
Recently, the spelling noob has been used more interchangeably with "newb", however, and is being used in a more joking manner, usually among friends and users on good terms when one user makes a mistake that most veterans would know better not to do, whereas a "newb" or "noob" wouldn't know better. For example, in the computer sense, a user on a bulletin board may call a veteran user as a noob in a joking manner because they didn't search for a topic currently open with the same discussion before posting a discussion of their own.
In online gaming, the term is also often used as a general insult. Frustrated players on the losing team may refer to the winning team as noobs. In this case there is no actual connotation of newness meant; the word is simply being used as an insult. By the same token, members of a dominating team may use the term "noobs" (n00bs) to further frustrate their opposition by implying a general lack of skill on the losing team's part, such as camping (staying in the general vicinity, usually a spawn point, for an extended period of time, especially America's Army and DOOM) or wastefully firing at a wall, wasting ammunition and time. Noob might also be used by veteran players to criticize cheap tactics or overusage of unbalanced weaponry. In an online team game where friendly fire is turned off, a noob "tactic" would be to overuse explosives in cramped areas around fellow teammates. Noob usually applies in games where team-play is important, and the players choose to completely ignore the team structure and goals. Some other "noobs" are players who overly use "uber weapons" to defeat other players, players who "kill-steal" from others, and players who scam others into losing their items or money."
Ive always liked the wiki definition  according to this you would be a 'newb' cause at least you are here asking

n00b = the opposite of a Pro ... though some funny people lacking common sense think the opposite of a Pro is a Contra
n00b can also be translated with "Not/New On Our Buddylist" ...

When you have learned every skill there is to learn in Eve and know everything there is to know then you can stop calling yourself a noob.
Everyone has something they don't know about the game. Whether it's one or several things, they have to ask questions to find out. Somebody in this thread has hit it right on the head by saying "When you have more answers than questions".
That doesn't mean DS isn't a noob, we all know he's a forum bot
