#13100000245 08/18/2005 12:27:28 Pet Peeves...
Although this thread may very well be asking for trouble, here goes...


I'm not looking for game-bugs or general complaints about aspects of the game, i'm looking for those little niche things that just niggle at you and drive you crazy while playing... (not things like 'sound loop bug' or 'getting ganked' etc etc)


My number one pet peeve has to be.. people who refer to Factions as 'fractions'


So, cmon, just for the hell of it, lets hear all of yours, and try n keep this thread light-hearted :smileytongue:

Standing at a hardline, with Ability Maker loaded and having everyone who asks, expecting me to make them abilities.  Then, if you take the time for that, then asking, "Oh, can you make me some clothes too."

Zionists are my number one pet peeve ..



*smirks*

Dare is so sexy when she gets all sweaty with us Zionist, don't you all think?  I do.  *winks at Dare*

In the same line as yours kingcaw, mine would be when people call
Morpheus "Morpheous" or Harpalos "Harpolos". Nothing irritant, just
funny looking.

((heh .. i have never seen anyone mispell Morpheus, but then again I
don't really hang around people that say his name very often.  My
biggest one would have to be people calling factions organizations or
organizations factions.  It gets confusing at times.))

Number one pet peeve has to be people just... Standing around at hardlines.



Like they're all statues, or zombies. Where is the sky flower ability? 4 Horsemen must be hording it.

the benchs at Mara C. WHY WONT THEY WORK **bleep** IT!

"My biggest one would have to be people calling factions organizations or organizations factions. "

That one bugs me a lot too.


Look at the bright side, though, at least we don't have rogues in MxO (well, not as a class anyway).

My dad is obsessive about correct spelling, and it's rubbed off on me unfortunately.  I always cringe when I see a "Zion Peace Core" member (I believe it should be "Corps")

My number one pet peeve has to be people who ask me why I named myself after a Blink 182 album.  If there was an opposite to a pet peeve, (pet praise?)  for me it would be characters with a literary background to them.  literary allusions get my blood pumping. ::grins::

That
is my number one peeve also. My number two peeve are those hardlines
that are in tiny spaces and in order to USE them you have to crowd
around it. Did the Dev's think we would make new friends this way? J/K.



Personally, I try to avoid walking through people. But when you have 8
people standing around a HL, you just can't avoid doing that. I
sometimes say "Excuse me", but usually I just rush in and get away, so
I don't add to the crush.



My third biggest, and last peeve is when your standing still for 5
minutes or less in a popular area, alone. I get so many mission
invites. Without a single hello, want to come with me, or what have
you. Has it never occured to anyone that if your standing still for
that long, alone, that your probably either talking to someone,
or  coding?

Oh my god ChesireCat, please tell me you are kidding. Or that people
that ask that are kidding.  Or that I'm actually dreaming all
this...

I hate people who name their RSI after something from the Matrix Movies...


It shows no creativity.. I mean COMEON AgntSmith?  Geeze.


(For people who don't read between the lines, My RSI name is from the movies and this is a joke post)

(CheshireCat, I begin to wonder why our characters are not more
involved then... Sykin's bluepill life's profession was writing novels.
I have always loved your name, haha. I love when people bring depth and
creativity into everything they do.)

#13100000318 08/19/2005 05:06 Re: Pet Peeves...
People who take it upon themselves to crowd and suffocate the GMs /
Live Event characters whenever they come online. And then shout
pointless questions such as " IZ TRINITY STLL LIVE? LOZL." And then
they complain about the lag. Which they are causing by crowding into
such a small space.



I'm sure i'll think of more.

#13100000367 08/19/2005 10:34 Re: Pet Peeves...
People at really low-levels standing around slagging SOE or the game off and saying how bad everything is... fair enough everyone is entitled to their opinion, but merely the fact that they haven't given the game a chance or played it for long enough to support their opinions
#13100000378 08/19/2005 13:06 Re: Pet Peeves...
Ah yeah, leet is also very very VERY annoying. As is certain internet slang such as "n00b", or "i pwn j00!"
