I've compiled a list of things in the forums that irritate the bejezus out of me.
1) [color=red]Using numbers for letters[/color] - Aren't you clever you devised a way to make a 7 look like the letter T. How very imaginitive of you! Could I propose using the number 6 as a b? Fantastic you say? You're an idiot, and I can't read anything you type.
2) [color=red]Misspellings of simple words[/color] - I know this isn't gradeschool...but you graduated from it didn't you? Oh, no you haven't 'cause you're 13. A typo here and there is fine, but for crying out loud, what is a "jackle" ?!
3) [color=red]Worthless subject headings[/color] - This is best explained via a list of examples:
- "Just telling you ppl out there" Just so you know, the word "people" only has 3 more letters than your stupid abbrev. (Yes, I did do that for irony's sake)
- "hALO 2 WEPONS" Also notice the inability to work the caps lock key and the word "weapons".
- "!!!! Something I noticed" The four exclamation points at the beginning is a nice touch.
- "HALO 3 IDEAS!!!! MABE BUNGIE WILL SEE IT!!!!!!!!!" If they do, they probably laugh at them and your pathetic obsession with punctuation.
4) [color=red]Flaming and empty threats[/color] - Yeah, you're a big and bad 95 lb. 14 year old, and I am convinced you can "pwn" me because you curse profusely.
5) [color=red]Worthless requests/demands and theories.[/color] - No, you cannot have everything you want because everything you want makes no sense to anyone except you. And yeah, there's an unresolved crisis at the end of 2. Unfortunately all of your plot ideas suck. You aren't the next Orson Scott Card.
6) [color=red]Claiming to know things that no one knows[/color] - This is actually related to two separate topics. A) You aren't the forum police nor the monitor of this installation. You aren't the webmaster (he is a big hairy hat wearing gorilla). You aren't an authority on anything, and if you were I'd protest. B) Before 2 was released there were people forming cults around single frames of fuzzy bootlegged video footage. Get a grip people. If you don't know, don't claim to. Save us your conviction. Chances are no matter how convinced you are, you're wrong. Everything you say is either your uninformed, uneducated opinion, speculation, or a damn lie.
7) [color=red]Hypocrisy and/or lack of a sense of humor[/color] - Apparently it's ok for Bungie employees (e.g. the webmaster) to write satire belittling ignorant people in an attempt to amuse a few readers but not ok for anyone else. Fine.
