Something that really annoys you but you dont have a reason why.

Q u o t e:


The obsessive compulsive desire to use abreviations for everything! This is not your cell phone. You can type out entire words. And to be honest, it confuses the living crap out of new players.

I hate it when people ask me "Are you holy or shadow?"

Can't stand it when people whine about me healing them. How the crap am I supposed to know that you're TRYING to get killed?

Tanks that tell me not to cast PW: Shield on them.

Damage Meter Olympics. You know, the idiots who start cutting corners so they can "win" at the meters.

People who insist on telling me how much I suck. I know I suck. My husband loves it. So suck it -_-

When you tell people "I have to go in an hour." and then they get pissed an hour later when you have to leave.

People who just lie there like a cheap hooker after a wipe, and wait for the healer to run back to their body to rez them.

Srs Bsns Ppl. You know.. the ones that have emotional meltdowns over meaningless piddly crap.

Ventrillo.
I know you think it’s a great tool for raids. I know you think it somehow makes people better at playing. I know you think it has all these advantages because you don’t have to, God forbid, TYPE what you want to say. And those are all valid concerns. However, at work, I spend all day, every day, listening to whiny, selfish, greedy lunatics as they verbally berate me over the phone. The last thing I want to do is be forced to listen to the same kind of mindless drivel while playing a game. I like silence, and music, and listening to audio books while I play. If I have to listen to hormonal, nerdish fools, ranting and cursing like drunken sailors on leave, then I will become very sad. And when I am sad, I tend to cheer myself up by watching my annoying raid mates die as they scream “HEAL ME!” over Vent.

Lastly...

Elitists
I don’t know who you think you are, or what gave you the delusion that you are somehow better than someone else, but frankly, I don’t care. If you berate, belittle, disrespect, or dishonor ANYBODY, and I’m around to see it, then I hope to God that you aren’t a fragile person, because you will get what you dish out, tenfold, in return. I don’t care who started it, I’ll be the one who ends it. My sister owns a daycare, and I help her out when her employees call in sick; and I’m accustomed to dealing with screaming children. I’ve spanked toddlers with more attitude than you, so PLAY NICE.

:D



C'mon there has to be something that bothers you.

Hmm.. what bugs me

Yeah, gold begging has reached a new low. I was playing a character in the low 20s the other day and a level 72 asked me for gold.

Q u o t e:


There is a reason for that. Warrior tanks gain almost all of their rage from taking damage. If we're not taking any damage, we can't put out worthwhile threat. 3.1 is supposed to change that, and let us gain rage from damage we absorb, but as it stands now, it just pisses us off.


I'm assuming the pet peeve comes from the fact that they are aware of the rage effect that comes with placing a power word: shield on a warrior.
