Forurm Pet Peeves

[Merlin]

Post yours here.

I have a list...

1. When the mods and admins only come on to lock, ban, and make site changes and never just chat with others.
2. People who overuse animated smilies and make dial-up connections go berserk.
3. Forums where all the text marquees.
4. Wen mods n adminz spel lik dis.

5. Really super strict forums.

6. When people do not use correct spelling or grammar. It annoys me to bits when people don't start a sentence with a capital letter, it's just sheer lazyness.

7. Porn Links and Pictures. I've seen forums like that before that contains vulgar posts and images but really out of the topic.

8. Really odd rule enforcement. Where the mods get really strict over minor things, yet let members who act like jerks and treat others poorly get by.
9. Members who make really short posts with little substance.

10. Pointless Forums/post/topics etc.

 

[Deus Ex Machina]

When people focus on only one area of the forum instead of branching their posts in other sections where they SHOULD belong anyway @>@

12. Lazy forum staff.

I have quite a few peeves; all of which I have seen at one point or another.

1. Inactive staff
2. 1337 speak.
3. Moderators who play favorite to certain members.
4. Overly strict staff.
5. Extremely pretty layouts, while the site has no substance
6. Admin and moderators who do not talk to their members.
7. Power trips
8. Lazy staff
9. Horrible spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
10. Posts with no thought or effort behind them.

Power trips?

 

[Cloverfield]

Probably means when the hosting goes down.

 

[Kuwabaratheman]

I'm assuming 'power trips' refers to a mod or admin going on a power trip. In other words, being drunk with power and treating members poorly.

I don't really have any pet peeves besides the owners having power trips or being controlling or the forum being unreliable (unlike FP, that is out of 4 people's control)
