    when people pile in and start taking the piss out of or ripping to pieces someone who`s clearly sick, vulnerable or having a hard enough time already.
    I saw that happen recently in advice. Someone asked a question and was immediately ridiculed and mocked for it. I felt sorry for the OP, all he wanted was a bit of reassurance.

    I have to admit though, I am guilty of ridiculing a certain knicker-sniffing god-botherer on here :blush: But that's because he's so contradictory, he's all bible reading and mass going one minute, and ejaculating into shampoo bottles the next. :D

    I call them "keeper of the thread" They seem to feel the need to reply to every post.

    "I have posted my opinion why are you all still posting, the thread is now over"

    Hahaha Right on cue :D

    People who say "I don't read the daily mail/heil/fail/ ". Then go on to post a daily mail link.

    How did you garner the info in the link?,did you absorb it through osmosis or something?

    It doesn't make me angry, but slightly annoyed...

    1) People that create multiple threads of the same thing/ people that bump their thread by replying to themselves because no-one replied.

    2) Wall texts with no paragraphs, it's bleeding hard to read.

    3) Threads that just have a link and the word "discuss".

    4) Anyone that uses buzzwords to "insult" you, just because you didn't agree with them and they have no argument to defend their stance.

    The worst thing about this forum is how addictive it is, even when there's naff all going on on it.

    A couple of things.

    Bullies and trolls who like to try and hurt and belittle posters weaker and more vulnerable than themselves.

    People not answering PM's - I always make the effort to reply to any I get as quickly as possible (not that I get many).

    There isn't really anything that bothers me as far as other people's posts go. People have different posting styles and that's fine. I mostly don't care if people do this or that, I just read people's posts and that's that. It's a waste of energy getting angry/frustrated over the least thing.

    People that act all high and mighty, like they're better than everyone else and think their view is the only right view to have.

    Ones that can't accept slang words, or typos, or americanised words. Get over it!!!

    Kinda related to what I already said, and to PMs...

    It irritates me when somebody's asking for advice and they get a response which says "PM me and I'll tell you how to sort this out".

    It's a forum, you miserable bastard. If you've got something useful to offer, why not share it with everybody?
    And, also, you can't help wondering if the advice given to people in private is actually good quality too.
    "Yeah, the best way to teach your dog to be obedient is to stick it in a sack and kick it around the garden every day".
    "Oooh, thanks. I'll give it a try".

    Dear me - life's too short to get annoyed by a forum.
    It bugs me a little when people don't read a post properly and jump on a poster for no reason or when they clearly didn't read the posts before theirs. But 'bug' is a long way from 'annoy'. :D

    People who ask for your opinion then you get that one person who likes to jump on it with questions about what's wrong with you. It happens with simple opinions on things like bread.

    People who post lists of "annoying" posters and then run and hide when everyone disagrees and laughs at them. :D

    People who say "IMO" all the time or even worse "IMHO".

    Of course it's your opinion, you're saying it! Usually the sort of posters who do not base any of of their opinions on fact.

    You've got it wrong. They are actually called Bill. I've not got the photos to prove it.
