OK, we've listed pet peeves, we've said what posters need their arse kicked, etc. No need to name names, point fingers, or even name names... but what are some particular posting habits that annoy the crap out of you.

(Disclaimer - I am throwing myself out there with this, yes, I realize. So I am expecting to see: gay unicorns, bumping old threads for the sake of being annoying, being friends with snotbubbles, etc.)

- Constantly bragging about one's self, but trying to be sly.
(My wife is so hot, and I lettered in 47 sports in HS, and I got banged 25 times by 37 different chicks)

- Mega trolls complaining about trolls, yet failing to realize their own trolling behavior. Pot, meet kettle.
(OK, I'll name names... COA... The worst, Jerry, the worst!)

Long ass posts that fail to separate thoughts with white space......................doesn't get it, I won't read it

Long ass posts that could be summed up with "yeah it sucks"

HAAAAAAhaHHHAAAAA


LOLLLLlolollLLL


TWHPITHOHP...whatever that's supposed to mean

generalized ignorance, you know who you are. It's not necessary to be a Rhodes Scholar, but try using a spell check, they are your friend. Most people tend to judge you and your posts by how they're presented.

I dont mind the occasional abbreviation, lack of apostrophe (see my don't in this sentence), typo, etc.

But the ridiculously bad grammar makes post almost impossible to read.

The Capitalization Of Every Single Word.
The posts that suck.........because they have all these periods......those ones.........really annoy me......probably the most.

6,000+ posts of "yup" or "good call" or "+1" without bringing anything of value to the discussion.

When people say "nice FAIL" in the middle of their posts. CoA seems to have that one down pat.

I don't know, I've seen some pretty funny fails comments. (Lots of them were directed at Gibby I think.)

I think a simple FAIL is pretty good, and at times is very funny and appropriate. But it doesnt need to be prefaced with anything.

e.g. Jake Delhomme: FAIL is way better and not as stupid as FAILHomme.

If you were around 5 years ago or so on the other site, there was a poster (I believe "Pink") who took this to the next level. E.g., she'd work in things like, "It's so tough to study when you're at the beach in Rio" or "I'm glad took a full ride scholarship at Miami instead of paying full sticker for Yale, even though they really wanted me." It was awesome to read her posts and try to pick out the one-upsmanship.

Was that Pink or Cheercoach?

I remember the latter getting mod privileges and banning anyone that talked even remotely negative about cheerleading - and she seemed to have a high opinion of her attractiveness, which photos she posted did not support.
