A 'niño rata' (rat boy) is a Spanish translated term usually refereed as an underage gamer with an acute pre-teen voice who uses to rant, scream and curse through the headset in multiplayer online matches, in some cases ruining the game play with their unpleasant voice. The term extends to annoying children in online games who somehow ruin the game experience for the rest of players by bothering and harassing in a destructive way, something often confused as a 'trolling'. Most rat boys define themselves as gamers as well, but the difference is that they only play main stream online shooting games and Minecraft. They are usually very bad team players, screaming at others for nonsense reasons, usually running away, or rage quitting, leaving the match uneven.
