I have a pet peeve...she's cute and furry and likes treats...no wait...that's my cat.
We don't have anyone that I've seen do the 'first' comments here. We do have a minimum of net speak, as far as I know. This is good because it confuses me.

The only real forum pet peeve I have is folks who make coments on a title that they obviously don't like from day one. I can understand a few posts when they first are introduced to it, but I've seen some that all they do is complain about everything from their arrival on. Makes me wonder why they are even bothering to read it in the first place. Fortunately, most that act that way around here tend to get bored and wander off...

I think one guy got called on it by Giz a few months back. All he ever seemed to do is hate Zii and just about everyone else in Ma3.

It also word-filters "first post" into "boobies".
That explains so much...
