Another one: A poster who will go out of their way to be rude to a single poster on a forum for no particular reason.
This is happening to me on another forum. I don't recall saying something to make this psycho chick(well, psycho towards me) ticked at me. If she asks a question and I answer it she will never respond to me in any way. The few times she has said something to me in a post have been aggressively harsh comments.
She once asked me about my posting name by IM me the title "YOU" Inside the text was something like "Who are you?" It was so bizarre how she asked.
Other people have noticed this on this board when we've talked in IM. They said it's best just to ignore her. Sounds good to me.
Sounds to me like it might be someone who knows you in real life and maybe knows who you are on the net? It's a possibility. Or maybe it's someone who's an uberfan of someone you criticised
Some of my pet peeves:
* Racism. Or anyone who makes judgements on people that are clearly based only on skin colour, but who justify it to themselves/other people and think they're right.
* People who make nasty comments about somebody's appearance, whether the other person can hear or not. Including those who slag off a skater or say they're ugly. :sheesh: Leave them alone and get a life.
* Commentators who say something that is just completely wrong/misleading. Like after the 04 mens worlds LP, after Brian Joubert's skate, when the commentator said "He did 2 quads and 6 triples, so technically he did exactly the same as Lambiel." That kind of comment just makes me mad! Apart from the fact that the jump count was wrong (Lambiel did one more triple), it's very misleading to say that the jumps are the only thing that's counted in the technical mark. Judges should also take into account things like spins and footwork, on which Lambiel was clearly ahead. Any commentator saying something wrong/misleading, especially somehting that is blatantly rubbish, is so annoying!! They should learn more about something if they're going to commentate on it.
* People using American terms for things rather than the British ones. Nothing anti-American at all, but it just annoys me when I see stuff like "cotton candy" on sale, or a sign saying "center". That's not what we say here, ok? We should be proud of the British terms, they don't need changing. It's candyfloss and centre. lol
