Since this thread seems to have turned into the what annoys you on Techspot thread, here are some of my pet hates.
1. Text speak(already covered).
2. Members who make posts one after the other, when there`s no need to do so.
What I mean, is a member will make a post, then decide to add something else. Rather than using the edit button to add the extra info, they make a completely new post. The only time a member should post consecutive posts, is when it`s completely necessary.
3. The inappropriate use of the quote feature.
There`s no need for members to quote the post directly above their own. Of course if they are replying only to a specific section, then only the relevant section should be quoted and not the whole post.
4. Premature thread bumps.
Members should wait at least 24hours without a reply, before bumping threads. I`ve seen thread bumps of less than 5 minutes. :knock:
5. Threads that are for computer problems get posted in inappropriate forums, such as the Introduce Yourself forum/Hot deals forum etc etc.
All the forums below, are off limits for computer problems.
There, I feel much better now I`ve got that off my chest.
