Forum Pet Peeves

Postby TrisDa » Mon Sep 24, 2012 8:39 pm

I made this thread because I think it would be fun to talk about the things people do in this forum that drive you up the wall. I think if we can talk about what bugs us we can get along better and more people will start using the forum.

People using "u", "ur" and similar words, also people getting really hostile for no reason which I've seen happen quite frequently in threads.
Threads turning into a schoolboy argument between 2/3 people.

The final 90% of drama threads that are contests of stupidity. I rarely read past the first couple pages if ever.

And people making rather simple suggestions in the suggestion forum (that have already come up 3-4 times by now) is starting to get on my nerves.
It's been neat to see the evolution of a game. Salem has come so far, and still has far to go. Although frustrating, I think it's been an experience worth the effort.

I'm sure no one here as any idea who you're referring to at all. Surely no one in Salem does that? ;)


As for myself, I constantly read through all the posts in Ideas & Innovations, City upon a Hill, and House of Burgesses. The amount of repeat threads is annoying as hell. Especially in Ideas forum. And now people are starting to claim they found nothing while searching pertaining to their post. Gets annoying reading the same ideas over and over and OVER again.

Also, the mega idea posts. Stop them. One idea per post please D:

We really need someone to do a complete summation of all ideas that have had possible community support. It wouldn't stop any of the bullplop posts we get, but at least we could put the link and say "HA! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO READ THIS".

What really drives me up the wall is people creating threads asking others to talk about things that drive them up the wall.

It also drives me up the wall when people think that talking about what bugs us will make us get along better, and that it would in some way get more people to start using the forum.
