Author Topic: What grinds my gears...  (Read 6612 times)

I swear, every time I see any of these occur, it makes me want to smash my head into the wall. What grinds my gears? Well, here's a list. >:C


Text Talk
It's already stupid enough on phones, but now, on the computer, on an actual keyboard, on the forums? It ticks me off so much. The only one that I don't care much about is "Lol/Lawl" or something like that.

Examples:

o_O idk if i sould be mad or happy.

Yah well you're handicapped. The only thing you can say is "ADURR HURR HURR!!" Thank god you know how to type. Oh and btw,

This is you're favorite video game system before me: :nes:
Favorite video game system AFTER me:

Hey guys, i gotta problem with some lil noob who stole my bl name, "add man." This is his version of my name, "addman." Could anyone help me get rid of this dude!?!!?

lmao...

Just a few examples out of many. Text talk is improper grammar and they are not real acronyms, so... what's the point of using them? Does it take you that long to type out "by the way" or "I don't know"? It makes you sound stupid with improper grammar... which leads me to my next section...


Improper Grammar
I don't know why it ticks me off, but it does. Improper grammar is a skill everyone should have, unless you're mentally challenged or don't go to school for whatever reason.

Examples:

what is OP and where can i find a defonition. Still user deathwish do you have a deathwish??
Really want to know
Do I need to bold anything here?

After seeing all these cool zapt maps i wanted to build one myself.I already have one done but this one will be the first one I will post.I dont know what to call it yet.And please don't complain about all the duplication.Also,this is not done.

It's just... horrible to look at. :C


First Post!
FIRST POAST!!!! Hrm. You can say that or go "No first post for you" and get me ticked off either way. "Reserving" as post is different. When you simply go "First Post" it's annoying and the first post really isn't that important. Actually, scratch that. The first post will never be and never was important, so why make a big deal out of it?

Examples:

No first post  for you

None of this first post bullstuff.

Btw in my opinion, first post goes to the first person OTHER than the author who posts first.
Nuts the pictures didn't work

No First Post For you :P

I could name a lot more. It's annoying, please stop.


Beta Testing
Let me just quote myself on a previous topic.

Hi. Recently, I've seem posts in the "Modification Discussion" section that have to relate to "Beta Testing".  I am very surprised people have started to do this and for the sake of humanity, ask them to stop. For example, these thread contain the following material relating to this subject.
Specimen #1: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=114836.15
This specimen contains people who are "claiming" a beta spot. It also contains and so called "idiot" who thinks he owns the mod.
Specimen #2: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=115838.0
This specimen contains a suggestion. As people displayed their models, people "claimed" a beta spot. It also contained a person who claimed the "modeling" position when their skill has yet to be tested.

I thank you for your time and thank you for reading this Aperture Science public notice. We hope to keep Blockland clean from unneeded comments and hope this will stop.


Good-bye...

I don't see it as much anymore, but it's still annoying. :C

Hrm. Let me quote myself again.

I'm sick and tired of these(I say this a lot about things. :C). People are creating crappy, unneeded add-ons, making posts in Modification Discussion of add-ons that won't go anywhere, they want it just to beta test. People make suggestions and try to take over it. People are trying to bandwagon on old stuff to look cool. Also, people who talk about things they have yet to even grasp the concept of are idiots. Yes, all my rants have been about this one thing.

Hypocrisy at it's finest, ladies and gentlemen.

I beg to differ...





Really the only parts there that I agree with are the text talk and grammar parts. The others I couldn't care less about because I simply ignore them.

With regard to grammar, in my case, it's just the fact that I think, "Just because it's the Internet does not give you the excuse to talk like a Neanderthal."

this guy named evan at my school ... omg... when i look at him he pisses me off, he makes me want to punch obama in the face
