People who sing along with songs, even if they don't know the words, and when you try to correct them, the go "NOOOO STFU! THOS R THA WURDS!"

This kid tried singing the Trogdor song in art and got almost all of the words wrong, normally I wouldn't have cared as much, but I reall, really hate this kid.

Peeve: When the Forum acts like a freaking Tard! Sometimes I can't even log on, and even when I can, it take 50 hours to load a freaking page! Hey Forum! Can you POSSIBLY go ANY SLOWER? I'd like to get my first retirement check before I make any more posts!

Yeah, that happened to me earlier, except it wasn't loading a all. I thought I was banned for something I may or maynot have said during Moon Language night. <_< >_>

It did that to me earlier, I gave up and played BFME, but yeah, it was freakin' annoying.

Well, Battle for Middle Earth takes 60 hours to load!

I agree with Didymus, having the forum go slow can get really annoying, especially when you wait for it to load only to recieve a "Could not be Found" message.

Didymus · **Posted:** Tue Apr 03, 2007 12:52 am

Or what happens to me quite often in R & P. I'll spend half an our composing a response to a question, only to have the Forum eat it, leaving me to start over or drop it completely. I HATE That!

Yeah, that makes me really angry. If I'm posting a message and the page takes awhile to load, I'll copy it onto my clipboard. I've lost long posts too many times to not be cautious (and I still lose some of them X-(

)

it probably has something to do with how the "server load" meter is in the red..

This explains the need for all the CPU upgrades in the ledger, and suggests there'll probably be more. So... donations!

Seriously. If we don't want a slow forum, we're going to need those donations. Since we can't sell any ads, donations are the only way we can keep the forum and wiki running.

Beyond the Grave · **Posted:** Wed Apr 04, 2007 2:14 am

I think the reason for the forum being so slow is a marketing ploy to get us to donate.

You found out the secret Mr. Gravey. We must silence you now. It's the rules.

It's like the old server all over again.

READY THE PREPARATIONS FOR THE 509 BANDWITH ERROR!

Hey Gravy! Who said anything about striking you down? We were talking about...

Need I say it...

RESTRAINING ORDER'D!!

Same here... but I think it might help if we didn't have the problems like we did over in the Gabbly thread. That kind of crap seems to utterly destroy the forum.

So yeah, that's my peeve. Good forumers who do dumb things that hurt the forum

Didymus · **Posted:** Wed Apr 04, 2007 2:26 am

You got that right, Stu.

Right now, my peeve is the fact that upstairs my dad is tapping his foot on the floor. Sounds travels quite well here.

Ah, here's a peeve I've had for a long time: Those stickers on the sides of new, unopened CD cases. I just got 4 new CDs, and trying to get those off was really annoying. Why are they there, anyways? At least put them somewhere that won't stop me from opening the case.

The Borders ones are the worst. You need scissors, or you'll damage the case. Of course, scissors ruin it to, so that's unavoidable.

Peeve: When people are jealous of my computer. Just kidding. I've also got the elvenstar mod, and all three patches. SAURON IS INSANE!!!

Ugh...I think that's a universal hatred right there. I hate those things ever so much.

My term for the forums taking forever to load or no loading at all. The page just simply stays white. :sad:
