What I'm about to post isn't just about forum members but people in general -- I can't deal with people who have too much of a superiority complex. People who constantly act like they're better than someone else. That's just so damn annoying and one of the things that gets on my nerves the most.

If you have more knowledge than someone else, a higher rank, or simply dislike the person you're talking to... nothing gives you the right to treat them like second class members/people.

I hate condescending people and I h-a-t-e belittlement. It's just not right.

Another thing I dislike is when people get too obsessed with forum rules and forget to have fun. At the end of the day we're all here to have a good time.

loathe-worthy:
1. Blatant bashers.

2. Uber elitists; Members who would twist reality itself to prove themselves correct, especially when it means avoiding others' points all together.

small peeve:
1. members who posting hundreds of topics and don't reply in any of them. at all.

Oh, my god, #2 is something I cannot stand. I encountered this on another anime forum, and it drove me off the site. This guy would absolutely not admit he was wrong about anything. Nothing. Nada. He had to be right about everything. If God himself (no offense to any religious people) told him he was wrong, he would not admit it and tell God he was wrong. I couldn't debate anything with him, because somehow I would always be in the wrong and I would always be the bad guy.

Me: "The guide says it was a left."
Him: "The guide is stupid. It was a right."
Me: "But the guide was written by the author himself. You just don't like the decision he made."
Him: "The author could've been high when he wrote it for all we know. The story blatantly contradicts this."
Me: "What? The story doesn't give a definite answer, and the guide clarifies what the author meant, because the author wrote it himself. Just admit you're wrong, dude."
Him: "I'm not wrong. The author can't be relied upon, and the story does give a definite answer. It was a right."
Me: "Ugh." *deskface*

I can remember one instance of him taking a clear jab at me for no reason. It was a topic about winter/bad weather, and I said I liked driving in it and pushing myself. Like the ballbag he was, he said "And this my friends is natural selection at its finest" (something like that). I got pissed and said something like "And this is when people think they're gods among men. I guess people who drive for a living are idiots to you, so thanks for badmouthing my job". I don't think I read the topic after that. It pissed me off so much.

The sad thing is a lot of people liked him for some ungodly reason (maybe even fear?), and he eventually became a mod. That absolutely alienated me. I'd already stopped posting on that site, but seeing that just disgusted me.

I mean, I've been stubborn on some issues, I'll admit, but I've never been this stubborn. I eventually admit when I'm wrong. This guy never did.

Yeah, sorry, rant over. But people like that, I hate, I hate, I hate.

To be honest this sort of thing seems to be very common:
