Posts inducing drama and (implicitly) directed trolling/insult.
Like, haven't we had more than enough drama back in the past?

I'm sorry, but what's wrong with drama? Watching idiots argue over petty matters is always fun. Makes for some good popcorn.

I personally prefer messages myself and I am not really offended if I get on someone's nerves because of my picture or something what really makes me facepalm though is someone trying to get ahead of you in a competitive matter and ends up embarassing themselves in public.

-People who think using >Green texting on the forum/irc chat will somehow get their point across better. I get it, you browse 4chan.

-People who join #staff, ask a question, and immediately leave because nobody answered their question within two seconds.
"Secondly, <PRO> is utter shit, and they're only "known" because almost all of them are also staff." - /vr/

Doing this anywhere that's not directly related to 4ch or its community or email basically looks on the same level as going "UPVOTE" on a post or an irc comment as if it were reddit.

You know it's out of hand when there's t-shirts adorning this stuff in shopping malls.

Well i suppose this counts for any channel. I often see people ask something in #zandronum for example and they leave withing the same minute. Something worth facepalming at.

People who say "X makes me face palm because it came from retarded people". Like both quotes in Ammar's post.

I agree, although the participants in drama may not be idiots. The subtle call-outs make me giggle. And when the drama escalates... oh man, you just sit back and eat some popcorn. For me it's refreshing to take a peak in the Trash subforum every once in a while. The provocations and trollings are occasionally clever and as a result succeed :lol: For me it's somewhat like pranking on the internet.

Have you ever tried engaging your brain before you type? It's usually quite effective when trying to make a point.

- In this community, clanhoppers;
- Hardcore elitists;
- People from a given community/workplace who often say that "X is dead" and bash their own consumer base because apparently it's so cool to be a pessimist;
- Somewhat related to the previous, but people who always talk about how the past was golden, how the previous generations were so mighty and great, yet these same people do absolutely nothing to help make the current generation worth mentioning in the future;
- People who manage to screw up the exact same thing several times and still don't have a clue why, while refusing to listen to other people's points-of-view. Then again, extreme stubbornness isn't a generally likeable thing.

More to come, perhaps.

-lel, lol, xD
-repetitious use of lel, lol, xD
-anyone who doesn't speak english and ends all their sentences in lel, lol, xD
-players that try to become idolized by talking about how good they are
-players publicly idolizing another player by talking about how good they are
-players who publicly bash their own skill, hoping to gain some recognition that they're actually good players
-players whom nonchalantly slip in their doom achievements into conversation, when obviously no one really cares about a mega kill with a chaingun
-players who cannot step up to match their boasts
-servers that get filled up with a TS/group of friends and think they own the server and begin votekicking people out and changing it's settings i.e. fraglimit/timelimit
-players who have no idea what they're talking about but continue to talk
-when priv becomes one sided because captains don't know how to pick, or be fair with their picks
-hemorrhoids
-any human being that becomes too affectionate to a woman and or fake woman over the internet and says things that they normally wouldn't say just to be impressive
-Most bronies, although I'm starting to get used to them and finding that they aren't really that bad, just the diehard fan ones
-Weaboos, the ones who are young and just about anything they spew from their gaping oxygen holes is just complete nonsense
-you people and your strange addiction to say 'nigga' and '*****' all the time now, almost as bad as ignorant USA
-people who try to fit into cliques by repeating "that one and only time" that they spent together with the other guys
-players, when under pressure and in a heated argument just resort to throwing cheap insults at other players because they have no other option
-playing in a populated duel server, finally get down to play, only find myself playing a map I really can't play and then being forced to get back into a 5-7 player queue
-people with the equivalent to having multiple personality disorder around separate groups

Uh, socks and sandles... Whoever thought of that combo should be locked away for life.

On the topic of fashion though, people who go to sports events (for example, an NFL game) and will wear the whole kit (the helmet, shoulder pads, jersey, shin pads, etc) whilst watching the game in the crowd. I can see why little kids maybe do it, as they want to impersonate one of their heroes maybe, but when you get 40 year old obese men sporting the look, then it becomes rather embarrassing
