Stop trolling on troll haters . . . ya troll :tongue:
Though, in all seriousness, the one thing that I can't stand about the internet is the security it gives people to let them simply act like a jerkoff. You can take any mild mannered person in the everyday world. Never bothers anyone, doesn't start trouble. You site them behind a monitor and put a keyboard under their fingertips, all of a sudden you can have one of the biggest idiots to be found. So yeah, I guess my least favorite thing about the internet, is the people using it and their crappy attitudes.

None of that stuff annoys me, so I'm going to assume I am those people.

  • The inability to read sarcasm without [/sarcasm] tags
  • Facebook birthdays, especially your own.
  • People who don't line break their paragraphs.
  • People who type up information i need to copy in ALL CAPS.
  • E-Bigots hiding behind the anonymity that is the internet
  • Men that try to surround themselves with women they've never met in person.
  • Women that fall for these kind of guys.
  • Excessive immaturity in a mature enviornment


Its quite a picky list if you think about it...which leads me to say that I don't really visit any communities that have those issues..so I usually don't have to worry about these things. I really don't consider Facebook a community, unless its full of friends you've never even met in person..

Needless to say, I take what I need from the internet and leave.

Youtube having commercials. I mean really? We can't just have one video site without commercials? Except netflix. They have had no commercials. :smile:

People talking about things they have no solid ground on, and are just saying things for the sake of saying things causing a huge argument that could've been avoided with either research or common sense.

having pop ups of naked girls come up when you are with your girlfriend clicking on to a shopping site... VERY embarrassing...

People who judge MLP before watching it. :P
Rickrolling.
Shock sites/images/videos.
When the top-rated comment for a Youtube video is a random quote from the video.
And those scare prank videos meant to make you jump out of your seat.

People that hate a band but post comments on their music videos on YouTube saying that everyone who likes said band is a (derogatory term for a homosixual).

The only thing that really annoys me is the fact that I haven't received my millions of dollars for allowing some prince access to my bank account. I think I might have messed something up, though I was pretty sure I followed all his rules. I gave him all of my personal information (so that he knew I wasn't a crook of some kind), gave him a list of my deepest, darkest fears (he wanted to get to know me better as a person), and then sent him 7 blank checks with only my name written on them (that way he could verify the handwriting and make sure I was who I said I was). Worse of all, it seems that someone has gotten into my account and was withdrawing cash left and right. I can really use that money now. :sad:

Half of my Facebook friends. They're either incredibly stupid or tyyep liek dihss and use q's instead of g's.
People that comment on Youtube videos. Well, most of them.
People that don't understand Memes and refuse to learn about them but criticize them anyway.
There's a certain board that I don't like on this forum, too.

Too many things to list...most of which stem from the fact that people will do/say things obscured by anonymity that they know better than to do in other situations. Then again, I have the same issue with people in their cars...driving can turn perfectly decent people into totally inconsiderate jerks just because they're inside their car...? I dunno...it's the whole, "it's ok to do/say whatever I feel like as long as it's not likely there will be any direct consequences to me" attitude.

Anyway, that's life, eh? You can't change people, and you can't nuke 'em all. :shrug: Might as well do your best to make nice.

Excessive reaction to something meant to be a joke, or at least lighthearted.

Pictures of people's pets that are in crappy quality and/or look terrible for any other reason, but you can't tell them that because people lose all their rational thinking ability when it comes to their pets.

Hiveminds forming within internet communities tend to annoy me. Usually ends up with anyone who doesn't conform to the general opinion being called an idiot, called a troll, banned, or just plain ignored.

Bad typing, spelling, or grammar. It doesn't have to be perfect, but if it takes me more effort than normal to read it, it annoys me.

[censored]ing about stuff on the internet.

People who have nothing better to do than argue. I think about brownnosing to modship is well not always bad some people are just sick of new forum comers that don't read the rules and want to make sure that people know the dang rules. I couldn't brownnose my way up to modship here anyhow I am too young and plus other things :P

Facebook. There's just too many flaws to list.

I have to agree with Softnerd, the fact that this place exists in which people can do things without feeling the conquences...It inspires people to change their personality,

But that's what you get without direct social interaction. :confused:

1. People who insult Justin Bieber in situations that dont call for it.

2. Grammar and spelling nazis.

3. when somebody makes a really long post and types it without punctuation so that it reads like one big long run on sentence kinda like this not sarcasm with #2 I dont care if its perfect but I like to know what your talking about

4. Moderators without a since of humor.

5. Forums for 18+ rated games that will not allow you to type profanity or post violent images when relevant

6. Forums that do not have buttons for HTML code.

7. Jr Moderator types that tell you "this will be locked," "this is in the wrong forum," and things to that effect

8. People ask for unbiased opinions on fan sights

9. L337 speak and CAPS

10. Forums on which moderators lock threads with no explanation whatsoever.

11. Emo Kids who through pity-parties in live chat sessions

12. People who make youtube videos with that monotone speaking thing that comes on apple computers (if youve heard it you know what I mean).

13. Hackers

14. Trojan Horse viruses

15. The fact that you cant beat people up through the net. (we all got somebody wed like to lay the smack down on)

16. People who ask for thumbs up on youtube.

17. People who post something about the number of dislikes on a youtube video.

18. People who dont read a thread a beyond the topic, but post in it anyway.

19. People who post vague topics.

To add on things I hate on other forums;
1. Lol general threads, if a Lol player doesn't see the first thread has to do with Lol they make one . We don't need twelve threads about League of Legends.
2. Bad moderators , it is even worse when they rarely log on.
3.People derailing topics so that they can "chat".

Firstly Rebecca Black. Done.

I'd say leet (or should I say 'l33t'?) because it's just stupid and apart from the occasional lol or btw, it's completely pointless (especially when it's in the form of entire sentences; just what are you trying to prove?'

I don't find trolls annoying at all, but I would agree that they are a bit of a pest.

YouTube comments are obviously abominable, so stay away from them if you don't want to lose your sanity.

And everything to do with Twitter.
