livejournal pet peeves.

[tiggz]

i'm bored and actually have time on my hands at work. so i bring you...

my lj pet peeves
- people who make introductory posts in communities. nobody really cares that you just joined.

- people who say "i'm not sure if this is allowed, but..." and post whatever it is they're going to post without reading the rules to see if it is allowed.

- people who let fandom drama/crazies drive them away from their journals/communities.

- people who make dramatic flounces saying they're taking an lj(or really this applies to posting boards too) "hiatus/sabbatical/vacation/whatever".

- people who repeatedly delete and undelete their journals.


i'm sure there are more, but those are the only ones that come to me right now. i'm hearing rumblings of a VM kerfluffle, but i guess it's only at TWoP and i don't go there. it's been a while since i stretched my snarky fingers and got involved in a flame war. maybe i should go post something inflammatory at beta. like..."moo". *snerk*

Ha...great minds! -LOL- I've never understood the intro posts when they contribute nothing other than "Hey! I'm new."

Also, I posted these two a while back, but most of it still applies to all communities. Though you might get a chuckle out of some of it.

If you promise not to tell anyone, I'll totally admit that I do do, on occasion.

offtopic: What are the VM Comm rules on advertising/pimpage? Good as long as it's VM related?
