I think it's when somebody makes a pointless topic, or makes a topic that's already been posted. Seriously. Don't waste our time with pointless topics.

Well double posting ain't that bad, but from the selection, I'd have to say "post a new topic instead or replying", what stupidity!

Nobody likes spam, no matter who or what it's from.

Besides, focusing too much on noob-hatred won't make any community evovle. Being nice and all is better (unless, of course, the noobs themselves are not being nice).

Eek, hard decision. They're all really annoying, in their own "special" way.

im sorry 1337 is the most annoying thing on earth. i get what it's supposed to be and that long ago hackers used some form of it to communicate without getting caught by the man but now any idiot can stick a number in a word and it is possibly the most annoying thing ever even more annoying than my sentence is a run-on.

Oh, you forgot to add advertising, like they only sign up just to show off their web side.

Well I consider it major enough to have it's own choice. even though you can't change the polls, I'm just saying he should have added it. so phooey to you good sir.

People who put huge avatars (like 744 by 766) and sigs, no question.

Yeah, large sigs and avatars are really annoying.
Some people seem to have no common sense when it comes to images, their uploaded pics being ridiculously big, like 640x480 big. Avatars and signatures containing long animations are also pretty dumb.

I'd say making pointless topics, without having searched beforehand. 'what is ur fav sbemail?'

That sort of thing.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone actually talking in 1337. Other than mocking and talking in it just for fun or some kind of game, I've never seen anyone actually use it.

Pointless topics. Or when they post a topic, it gets locked, and they repost it. But we should be nice to noobs, only we can teach them. We were all noobs once!!11!!

No you were a n00b. It took you a while to realize that using the "SHIFT" button is a good thing.

Hey hey hey, Number one: I only did that for a week, out of laziness. Number two: Cola still is not capitalizing(well... sometimes he capitalizes), yet he's a respected member of the forum community(kinda). And number three: I doubt capitilization is a big enough offense to label one a Noob.

Bagh. Way too hard to choose. I hope I wasn't too noobish... I was petrified of annoying people.

Personally, my views on l337 are: It's funny on the webcomic Megatokyo, but not in real life.

Personally, I find that noobs who use internet slang (lmao, wtf, lol, brb) in their post are annoying.

Flamers by far.

I'm not sure why double posting would be considered bad... I mean, they're in the rules;

Quote:
3. NO SPAM.

Spam includes:
a. Posting anything in the wrong forum.
b. Writing posts without meaning.
c. Asking questions that have already been asked or giving answers that have already been given.
d. Writing posts like "I agree" that do not contribute to the conversation.
e. No advertisements or plugs.
f. No double-posts that are not at least three hours apart.


Oh, and by the way: How can anyone not laugh out loud at this?

I voted for people that post a new topic instead of replying to a topic that is already there.

Swearing isn't that bad, it's just against the rules.

Improper grammar is bad too.

I chose the new topic thing.

People saying "You can swear in this thread but no where else" it's just friggin' stupid. It's like saying "I can steal, but only in this store"

Right now, I'd say making thread after thread and then posting worthless things in them just to bump them.
You have no clue how bad that gets on my nerves.

I'm not talking about this thread, though. This thread is good.
*hugs thread*
Yeah, that freaked me out, too.
