POSTING pet peeve's

[wannabe]

I just hate it when someone writes a long informative post and then guys repling to that post have to "quote" the whole message into their reply.

Things that make me go hmmmm!

JEEEEEZZZ

Any one else have review board pet peeves?

Maybe when a poster makes a post called pet peeves

Lets hear them!

No kidding! Not only that, some posters do it in the post immediately following the one they quote in its entirety.

Two rules:

1. If you're responding to the initial post in a thread, you usually don't have to quote it all.

2. If you're responding to only a small part of a post, edit the quote between {QUOTE} and {/QUOTE} to show only the part you're responding to.

hornyitalian06, are you listening?

On the other hand, there are some posters who respond to a post that's several pages back without quoting anything at all, or they leave out the handle of the poster they're quoting. That makes it very difficult to trace.

Here's a reason or two

1. Some posters have a habit of "editing" their comments

2. It makes it difficult to backpedal/change posts

 

[Bartdude]

People who post useless, whiny threads with no discussion value.

Can't stand that shit.

Comments

People who post info that makes you wonder who or where .For example X is really good at so and so. Or she does it all at $. Or I met her and have her # is really good. But at the end say dont bother to ask for name or additional info on board OR by PM. WTF are you even discussing it for if you wont name names.

by the time I had finished quoting your post I forgot what I was going to say

Yes, thats exactly what I am talking about!

 

[trintrin]

My top 2

1. Reading banter
2. Thank-yous like "Oh, thanks hun, you rock, I'd do you anytime"

Possibly 80% of the posts could/should be handled by PM.

Don't read the banter.

Never anything wrong with a Thank-you.

 

[gravitas]

inappropriate use of " ".....a wink is a sign of irony or other lighthearted knowing misdirection and there are too many people who insert it at the most odd an inappropriate spots...

i.e.
- "boy the weather is nice today " when the weather was actually nice why fucking wink?
- "she sucked my cock like a fat kid on a lollypop " well did she or didn't she give you a great blowjob?

 

[totravel]

The problem is too many don't hold the cursor over the long enough to see it is a wink. They go by what the smilie looks like to them.
I recall a post where a poster used on his post header because he thought it was suitable since he felt like wearing sunglasses to hide his identity. It was such an embarrassingly bad experience. (Someone questioned him why he would use "cool" to describe a very negative review.)

 

[GTM]

Yes, by all means, be polite and say thank-you, with a PM.

Joke with your buddies, via PM.

Ask yourself, Would more than 1 or 2 people be interested in what I have to say? If not, PM.

It's like the over-used "Reply to All" in Outlook. That peeves me too.

Sorry to be a Negative Nancy, not usually like me, but the request was for pet peeves.

The reviews and the banter and the debates are all good - it's all part of the charm of PERBertland.

It's just that for the past while, this place seems to have attracted a larger chunk of the idiot subgenre, from the annoying to the despicable.

Almost as bad as those with Cartoon Signatures

If I have to see stick boys penis moving one more time, or the honey mooners clip, I'm going to be sick. There are some cute ones (our favourite flame fan Jenn) but generally gentlemen they all get tidous after a while.
To fix the clip and repeat option why can't mod just put a reply feature without posting anything.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Don't like sigs? There's an option in your user profile to hide them, you know.

Wolvie, there you go being logical again.

This reminds me of the people who complain about what's on TV or the radio. Last I looked they had dials that allowed one to change the station or shut it off altogether.

Sounds to me like some people on here need a tutorial on posting. I would suggest sending this link and asking people to click on it if they need help:
