When browsing TL, what little things annoy you?

Mine:

A TL Admin makes a humerous (or not) post, and someone quotes it with "roflmao" or "ROFL gold" just to kiss ass (no offense to Admins here), when everyone knows that if someone relatively unknown made exactly the same post they would be flamed or ignored.

Whoever who does that, should be banned, TL admins, do not tolerate cock sucking, If you suck as a poster, if you post senseless crap (like some of my posts yes ) and if you are bad mannered, it's good bye for you.

The thing that annoys me, is the abundance of Whiny PvZ threads (not really), and the retarded new people who come and try to be funny and bump threads that are 2 years old. ;p.

This goes for any forum, not just this one..

Forum sheep i.e. herd mentality has got to be one of them.. i.e. all those mental midgets that wait to see what the preponderate opinion will be, to join in the idiot fest after.. With the sheep I like to include those that use one or two liners that say nothing or leave an ambiguous message, thus not only adding nothing, but making no commitment in their opinion i.e. cowards.

Wanabe e-bullies i.e. battle.boys who act tough and are spiteful on a forum, that add nothing and are in it for their own giggles or to vent their own feelings of inadequacy (see troll).

No-you're-wrong whiners i.e. those who are there ONLY to argue back, anything, the subject don't really matter, and specifically when they have never added much to the forum, community or game. They are those that argue for the sake of arguing, they have no intention of proving a point or convincing you of anything; all the want is for the argument to last forever as they cling for the attention.

Trolls* i.e. obvious. In general people that don't give a shit about the other members or the forum itself. There are many kinds, some worse than others.

Stoning rabble i.e. phucktwats that ask for a thread to be closed or someone to be banned. Here I include too those that do excessive back seat moderation (as tiffany so well put it see his post later).

Ungrateful phucks i.e. phuckers whom you leave a post helping them, or answering their question, or help them out in a PM and never even bother to say thank you.

The ghetto clown nerds i.e. a mild form of wanabe e-bully. They only leave posts that they (falsely) perceive as "funny" or hip. "funniness" and sounding hip is their primordial "directive" (pun intended since they are nerds, might as well use their language to describe them). Other than this they hardly ever add anything to the forums. They love leaving one or two words posts too, you know.. its easy. When stimulated they can turn into trolls or whiners. A synonym of immaturity. One caveat though, you will find them funny if you are immature yourself.

The scroll phukers i.e. They use double spacing or triple spacing or even more between their lines, sometimes even words, so that their 5 word post is as long as an essay thus abusing their space, literally, and abusing our scroll wheel/finger. A special type are the "huge text" & picture quoters i.e. they will quote a photo or pic or "huge text" ad naseum just adding clutter and nothing new.

Man I am running out of forum members.

*+ Show Spoiler +
There are purely attention seeking trolls. They do what they do because they are mainly seeking attention, even if it is in a negative and misguided way - the pissing off part is a by product. These guys are sometimes just passive aggressive personalities which can be easily be confused as pure trolls.

Nevertheless, there are even worse kinds of trolls. There is the "I am completely selfish and I don't care if you die" type of troll that loves being nasty and participates just to be able to hurt or harm other people. These too, are misguided haters with a deep feeling of inadequacy, i.e. the classic forum wanabe "e-bully" as mentioned.

Then there is the worst kind of all, the ones that do it with the specific intentional goal of ruining the forum, every thread and creating constant havoc . They usually are members of other failing forums, or that have already been rejected by another forum, who deep down are on a mission, consciously or unconsciously to ruin their new host forum.

Bad grammar and spelling (people from mainly non-English-speaking countries excused).
And also "Feurbach out".

O_o; like what? I hope you're not referring to my lovely translations.. >__<

My pet peeve would be when people who don't know anything just coming into threads and talking as if they know something and ruining the discussion.

lol, I've actually thought "when's the next pet peeve thread coming up?" because I had one in mind....

people who leave their ID name at the end of each post.... like this

ID: blah123
"Blah blah blah"

-blah123

Holy shit that annoys the hell out of me, especially when the post is really short. We KNOW IT'S YOU, THERE'S AN ID UP THERE FOR A REASON! I don't know why this annoys me so much but jeez.... [/rant]

1. People that pretend to be really smart or try to act that way but aren't.
2. People with an inflated sense of opinion
3. People who whine about people who whine about PvZ

also, live2win - some people put their own id in their post so that they can easily search for all posts that they've ever made by just searching their username
