    For me, it's people who think it's their place to correct other members even though everyone knew exactly what the original poster meant.

    Also people who have multiple membership accounts.

    Grammar Police. don't you have anything better to do???????


    I bet you are picky about your emails being perfect.



    Some of aren't perfect, because we are tired, it is really late, we are posting while drinking, or like me ...We simply cannot read the small print and are too lazy to change the size.

    The only pet peeve I have with PriusChat, and it's really more of an observation than an annoyance, is the lack of available smilies. Some other boards have 10x more choices, though admittedly the choices (as on the BMW forum) are driven by 19 year old males and would not be appropriate for a site like PC.

    But if the wood were from Mahogany it would be just fine?

    I have two pet peeves:

    Someone who instigates disharmony, but runs crying to the Mods when the said disharmony is bounced back against them.

    The amount of 'down time' PC experiences.

    This is a shot at me. Tripp knows I have a mahogany sailboat. If you click on my screen name (qbee42), you can see a photo of me working inside my boat. It was taken at anchor in Paradise Bay, at St. James, Beaver Island. I was writing firmware for that little black box you see on the table. Sometimes it helps to get away from phones and other distractions.

    I hate that if I go missing for more than a couple of days, I have to spend hours getting caught up with all of the posts.

    Guys who have cartoon avatars so that they look like a cocky jackass, yeah they bother me.

    Even worse is the ones with their Cat. :D

    Pet peeves? Oh I hate those women that fart in the supermarket isle and drag the smell down the whole isle! :angry: :blink:

    Or the sickos I work with, that told me to watch the 2girls1cup video.. :wacko:

    Or those animated avatars.. [​IMG] :ph34r:

    My pet peeve is it seems that folks don't read all the posts before answering. I went through one thread where the original post was answered many multiple times (several pages worth) with very few posts adding any new information.

    Replying to my own post. =)

    A good sign of multiple replies to a post inidcates to me that there are a lot of people willing to offer help or advice to others. That is a nice thing to know.

    Nothing peeves me about PC unless I have already posted a peeve in which case that is what peeves me. I'm just too lazy to go to the first page and check. I also hate when people post when they don't know what other posts are on the thread, what a p**s off! :) :p

    I withdraw my earlier post RE poor navigation.

    The Upgrade is MUCH Better :)

    Thank You

    Which upgrade? Are you talking about the one that just came out? In what way is it better - ease of use, map database, something else?

    It's the same forum as a motorcycle forum I belong to. Maybe I am more familiar with the recent upgrade.
    motorcycle-journal.com

    It's easier to track All my posts for replys. Before I could only look back 10 posts. It's also much faster.

    I was going to make a thread somewhat like this, good thing there's that feature that searches for you.

    That functionality is FTW.
