4:3 stretched. Let it be you fools. Not everything must fit the 16:9 dimension if it was not intended to be so.

How long is it going to be until that is forgotten? Because currently that is my biggest pet peeve.

When people pull the "get a life", it really is the most illogical phrase ever.

People who try to correct people grammatically, only to have mistakes in their own sentences. People who give writing advice, especially when it comes to publishing, without actually looking up information or researching it beforehand. And I guess when people get moderated, act like they do not know what they did wrong, and cannot admit to their own mistakes and will just blame the moderators. Not saying moderators are always right because I've made mistakes myself, but people will troll and say they're not in the wrong and demand a reversal.

People who make a discussion personal, those who can't stay on topic, spam, glitches.....LJS9502_basic
This, especially in political threads. There are some members here that if you don't agree with them they get nasty as all get out. :lol:

Oh I've noticed....I've been called every name imaginable in my OT time.:lol:

lol, this is why I try to refrain from visiting political threads too much.

[QUOTE="rragnaar"][QUOTE="bededog"]That reminds me, sites with over sensitive or just plain idiotic mods, aka GameFAQs.warownslife

I've heard horror stories, but I haven't ventured over there to see for myself.

The mods are insane yes. The posters are unruly. Also they love topics with things i can't stand. Incest and succubuses are some of their favorite things to talk about. Also the trolls are great. They make you super angry yet avoid ban.

It's succubi. I don't mean to correct you, but that's one of my pet peeves, as well. And there's nothing wrong with succubi, either.

Great news, there's another thing that I've remembered I don't like. When people say "no offense, but..." or "I'm sorry, but...". Maybe they do it because it makes them seem civilised or intelligent, but it comes off as arrogant more than anything else

Walls of text and using ellipsis as an excuse to ignore sentence structure.

That small red x box.

LightningBright

that and youtube videos with their audio replaced with something totally inapropriate for the video

Both of these and when you sign up for something, it makes you go to your email and complete the registration there.

Sometimes they are said because people can be a bit too sensitive and they aren't trying to offend anyone.....

Using ROTFL and any variations of it. Lol is okay if it's funny, not to end a sentence.

People going that music "A" isn't music because I like music "B" and it's so awesome. No matter what genre, it's music and is independent of if you like it or not!!!!:x

People using debate phrases like red herring, strawman, and the such. Relax, it's a gaming forum not debate team. I see it as trying to show off. And the worst part is they don't really attack each others arguments very well. Usually its, I'm going to quote them and only use part of a quote and take it out of context.

How to talk to a girl threads. Use the search function and look up all the other asking a girl out threads and use the same advice that's been dispensed over and over again.

That released some good stress :)

Self-proclaimed experts. You find them quite often during political election campaigns and during musical threads. It's one of my least favourite things about OT, for sure. Oh, and musical elitists. That goes for hipsters with indie rock and metalheads with obscure Scandinavian metal bands with names like Flarjkuviyluant and the like.
