Bump Pet Peeves

What bugs you about the bump? We haven't done this in awhile.

When people use TB like Facebook or Twitter. I don't need an update about updates about random shlt.

People who don't use caps or apostrophes or proper punctuation.

jr63_2020 · January 2011

For me, it's people posting like it's a facebook status. I feel like I can report some people's every move!

It annoys me when I see the same question over and over.

This is a techinical issue but it is soooo annoying when its super slow, which seems like its all the time!

~Ginormous siggys.

~Page long paragraphs with no breaks (I know phone posting causes some of this, and I deal). It all runs together which makes me quit reading it.

~Posters who reply to the title of the post without reading the contents.

I have 2....

Constant updates..don't need em & don't care, if I want to know I'll ask.

Certain posters who only come on whenthey need support (Wah wah wah) but never support others, It's a 2 way street ya know...

I agree! This is starting to be my #1 pet peeve.

Bad spelling, grammar and punctuation including no caps or paragraphs. I'm not perfect and I don't mind occasional typos or usage errors, we all make mistakes or bump from our phones, but consistently illegible posts drive me crazy.

It's 2010, install a spell check on your browser and hit return every so often. It's not that hard.

I think people who post "So I have this going on Friday" at 8 am..

Than at noon they have to write a new post about "what they are doing Friday at 8 am"

Than at 8 pm, they write an updated post about "what's going on at 8 am"

Seriously I don't care at this point what's going on Friday at 8 am.

Another one is complaing during the 1st week of your 2WW. Yes your 5DPO and spotting.. relax, it could be anything. You can't change the fate of either being sooo preggers (he he) or your going to get AF.

christyjolee · January 2011

1) People with poor grammar and spelling drive me up the wall.

2) People who are hypocrites really get under my skin. They come on the board and yell at posters for doing things that they don't agree with and then they go and do the same thing (ex: announcing BFP on this board).

3) People who give you blow by blow of their everyday life.

4) Drive by's and goats.

This is my #1 pet peeve! There's a search engine at the bottom of the page, please use it is what I want to say to some that ask.

Error messages when you're trying to reply to a post is my next one. When I go back, usually what I wrote is gone.

EDIT: Wasn't very direct in the second part of my #1 peeve.

jr63_2020 · January 2011

Oh I'd also like to add another one...

People who post a question, leave immediately and seem to never read the responses, only to ask their same question in 5 other threads. We take the time to respond, how about you take the time to read?

LaraGaudess · January 2011

Flaming over silly things, just looking for the smallest mistake to call out. I haven't seen that on this board, but on the Tri boards... Sheesh! We can't all be perfect!

Froggy76 · January 2011

Poor spelling and grammar.

Also, I hate sig pic and ticker warnings. I know it's proper etiquette on these boards, but to me it calls attention to the fact that the poster has a kid and I don't. Without these warnings, I would just gloss over the pics or tickers without really paying attention to them. But the warnings call it out right away... "before you read my post, can I just point out that I already have a child?!"

I know I sound ridiculous.

This exactly! There are lots of times where I want to search something because I know I've seen it on here before, but the search function doesn't work at all!!

alexa08 · January 2011

Bump burps. I hate those error messages. And when you post takes forever to upload.

LaraGaudess · January 2011

burp *sigh*

I don't think that's ridiculous, I thought I was the only one who though that!

emeraudecephiro · January 2011

People who I've just told about the blog and it's question section, just to ask the question that is answered there.

People who don't even try at all with spelling, grammar, or punctuation. I'm not perfect either, but come on...you can try to do at least one of those right.

People who are annoyed that they should have to introduce themselves...you would introduce yourself to a person in real life before talking to them a lot, right? Same goes for here.

Support goes two ways... If you post 3 vents a day and I don't see support from you...It's kinda irritating.

hopefulelise · January 2011

When people write a huge long story with no breaks. It's not hard to put a couple breaks in there so it's easier to read.

I just LOL'd imagining myself just running up to some group of ladies I don't know and going on and on about my frustrations and fears and CM questions without even saying hello. And then leaving. GOOD POINT. Yes

MommyandKate · January 2011

The technology is so slow, and so many functions don't work (like telling it to hide threads you've already read- eh, sometimes it'll do it).

HadleyS · January 2011

High-jacked threads that turn into drama posts. I could completely do without those.

millejj1 · January 2011

Stupidity. The end.

PS: I know I'm guilty of the spelling and grammar thing. Sorry to all of you that I make crazy! I've found if I'm at work it's way worse because I am clearly multi-tasking poorly Stick out tongue

tiffany119 · January 2011

No "notification" for private messages! Stick out tongue

Def NOT Directed at you my dear, you post & you support, I'm talking about the ones who come on here only looking for support but never give any back.

That is NOT you

I've only been here a few days and I can tell you're one of the VERY supportive ones.. Yes

sisterrael · January 2011

All of these AND the random AD that pops up out of no where. At least is a beach scene so I'm a little more relaxed as I hurriedly click the skip ad button.
