From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   lamer n.   [prob. originated in skateboarder slang] 1. Synonym
   for {luser}, not used much by hackers but common among {warez
   d00dz}, crackers, and {phreaker}s.   A person who downloads much, but
   who never uploads. (Also known as `leecher').   Oppose {elite}.   Has
   the same connotations of self-conscious elitism that use of {luser}
   does among hackers.   2. Someone who tries to crack a BBS.   3.
   Someone who annoys the sysop or other BBS users - for instance, by
   posting lots of silly messages, uploading virus-ridden software,
   frequently dropping carrier, etc.
  
      Crackers also use it to refer to cracker {wannabee}s. In phreak
   culture, a lamer is one who scams codes off others rather than doing
   cracks or really understanding the fundamental concepts.   In {warez
   d00dz} culture, where the ability to wave around cracked commercial
   software within days of (or before) release to the commercial market
   is much esteemed, the lamer might try to upload garbage or shareware
   or something incredibly old (old in this context is read as a few
   years to anything older than 3 days).
  
      `Lamer' is also much used in the IRC world in a similar sense to
   the above.
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   lamer
  
      A hopelessly clueless {luser}.
