The 'scale' of a guitar refers to the average string length between the bridge and the nut of the guitar (this is the average length because intonation at the bridge means that not all the strings are identical in length from nut to bridge).

Is a guitar 18 inches in length with a 25.5' scale standard sized or should you typically go for something larger to avoid looking like a noob?
Sounds similar to the size of my Les Paul except it has a 24.75' scale. By 18 inches I'm going to assume you mean the length of the neck. What you listed is a fairly standard scale. I don't see what would be wrong with having a guitar with those specifications or how it would make you look like a noob having a certain type of guitar. What matters is your ears. Does the guitar sound good? Is the sound coming out the speakers of your amp a great tone. Do you have the talent? The scale of your guitar should only matter if you have a personal preference on scale or neck profile. It has nothing to do with what you can or cannot do with your guitar.
