What are your biggest LIW pet peeves?

This could be fun! Or totally drama-inducing...

Either way

Some of mine...

1. Posting a thread at say, 1:30 pm.
Bumping said thread at 1:32 pm, by saying 'HELLO????'

2. Posting a question-asking thread.
After getting a few meaningful replies, then bumping and saying 'Anybody else?' (As if those previous replies don't matter)

3. When people use incorrectly.
For example, 'Come see my centerpiece sample! '

Okay, your turn

Re: What are your biggest LIW pet peeves?

first one that comes to mind is ppl telling other ppl what they can and can't say and how to say it, like putting rules to the responses of your thread for ex.

another is how our pervy ones get moved to off topic

how you can't say anything neg about LIW vendors even if you had legit bad experience, or rather you have to pass the 'nonemotional wording' test i guess

getting rick-rolled, jk! i think thats funny and i fall for it EVERY TIME

lemme think on others..i know i have plenty (<~~~~~ i tried to use that appropriately)

Starting a thread that involves opinion or thoughts on: hair/make-up/BM dresses/wedding dress/cp's/flowers whatever and when people give HONEST opinions that are not glowing people get mad...Don't ask for an honest opinion if you don't want it

I was JUST thinking about posting a similar thread today...


Most annoying.. some of the lingo.. Especially on the LIF boards

* 'Preggo'... I absolutely hate it, do NOT use it in reference to a pregnant lady.. it is like a knife in my eardrums.. What's worse is when people pronounce it as 'pray-go'... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

* claiming you can't decipher 'tone' in a thread.. ummm if you're snarky, you're snarky.. do NOT tell me you didn't mean it like that

* 08,09,10 brides posting WR q's on the NW board

* all the dammn lingo.. It gets annoying sometimes.. again, it's more irritating on the LIF ttc/pregnancy board

* an excessive use of emoticons


rant over... next

BIGGEST:

-if you ask for an opinion and someone doesnt agree getting upset and snippy b/c they dont agree-if you dont want an opinion dont ask

-Blatant stupidity-ya know should I wash my hair the night before or the morning of I mean if you need ME to tell you this you shouldnt be getting married.

-When responding to someone why do people go completely waaaaaaaay off topic...thats so annoying

-B2Bs posting on NW board


OOH THIS ONE IS MY HOTT AND ANGRY ONE

-When there is a drama thread....and some random posts on the thread 'this is just silly why cant we all just get along---> but then proceeds to fight in the drama thread LOVES IT

When you post something get no responses and your thread moves to page 3 and you bump it...you just look pathetic and like you are screaming for attention

good usage, peg!

i've just been seeing it used a lot lately in weird ways! (like as the emoticon that shows up next to the thread title, but on inappropriate threads... aka ones that aren't funny/joking/sarcastic)

Flashy glitters-they are cute for a minute, but when I feel like I am going to have a seizure its not cute anymore

Debbie Downers!!!!
I don't mean sharing sad or disappoinTing news...that's fine.
But if I'm talking about my fun trip to Disney don't chime in with the story of your aunts neighbors grandson who's boat capsized on Its a Small World requiring 34 stitches

I hate when people keep quoting others, especially when there are pics involved, and the response takes up half the page. Like there will be 10 previous posts quoted within the post and I have keep scrolling down to get to the new post.

holy crap, I stopped reading the ttc board b/c peoples entire paragraphs were in acronyms and it was like reading jibberish. To complicated over there....I'm just going to have sex and hope for the best (<------- totally used that right!)

ETA: i totally say preggo! (usually preggers) Sorry My sister and I use to joke around saying it and it sorta stuck.

Threads getting pulled. If you posted it, stand behind it and don't ask for it to get pulled.
Those that are pulled without you asking, that bothers me too. We all realize that this is a public forum and things will be here forever unless you ask the administrators to pull it. Be an adult and think before you type.

some others....

* flame me.... but I seriously hate when people are irked by peoples punctuation on a forum.

* I hate when people quote and make their entire response the length of the page b/c they quoted ten people in one response.

* I hate that you can't post negative comments about vendors. (I understand why but I still hate it)

* Overuse of emoticons....drives me nutty

Emoticons that don't match their names. Mr appeased does NOT look satisfied...
