I for one get irritated whenever someone makes a reply to a topic and that reply is then succeeded by another reply featuring a quote of the previous post. The content of the person quoting says something along the lines of winner. thread closed. pack up your shit and get the fuck out win. thread over. etc, etc.

I don't think you're any of those things. Those peeves aren't really from this forum, actually. The saltwaterfish ones I visit seem to be full of people who can't form a complete sentence to save a life.

My biggest forum pet peeves:

1. People who hold grudges for distinguished mentally-challenged Internet discussions.

2. People who don't spell or use grammar correctly.  I'm not saying everything should be perfectly written, but have some consideration for the other forum members who read what you write.

3. Attention whores.

uptight PC liberal people disconnected from reality who scream for murder at any faint racist or anti-gay allusion and use it as a weapon to assasinate someone's character, and then proceed to give into other forms of berating that aren't as explicit by masquerading it as "humor" to get away with their heinous discourse

yeah, that too

95% of forum users just want to be fucking comedians nowadays

truth is that it's just rude to hop into someone else's thread that took a whole lot of time to write, only to disregard it by posting some lame zinger-- now add a few dozen zingers to the discussion and you have the state of GAF today

yeah, the "witty" posting of pictures too, even moreso when they're accompanied with captions that painfully try to be funny

why is everyone obsessed with that? is this because on certain forums they don't have lots of emoticons to play with?

I've noticed a phrase that goes something like, "I'M IN YOUR _____, _____ING YOUR _____."

Anytime someone says that, automatic spiked bat up their ass. I'm certain some overweight World of Warcraft playing, nerd-girl came up with that one. Fucking stupid.

The rest don't really bother me that much and I just attribute them to the general malaise that comes when you spend too much time on the internet.
