Pet Peeves.

Might want to brush up on your English. A synonym for ignorant is "unaware." I was referring to people who are "ignorant" of their surroundings.

Wasn't an attack toward you, just stating it in general. It's a common thing around here for people to misuse it. And no, they are not using it as unaware. :rolleyes:

people should know when not to get involved with things that don't relate to themselves or don't understand ....

If either of you have a complaint against a mod, PM an Admin and take it up with them. Go through the proper channels, voice your concerns, copy/paste the example and let them look into it for you. Putting big bold letters in your signature isn't going to help the "cause". ;)

My pet peeve... when people park on the wrong side of the street facing the opposite direction. Example: the street runs east and west, instead of parking on the east side, they park on the west side facing toward the oncoming traffic.

Angles, I hate things with angles. I posted this in another thread; we had a brick walkway that angled toward the front steps and it drove me :crazy:. I ripped it out and had the concrete guy come out and pour a straight walkway. You see these home shows on TV and they are making these curving walkways and flower beds... :help:, I don't like it. LOL!

so wait, you think THAT'S why Rawburt got banned?

If so then I've got a new pet peeve:

I hate when people don't bother to become properly informed on a topic before they formulate an opinion. :p

Ok wait let me rephrase. I hate when moderators instigate via insulting an individual. :p
 
That's better. ;)
It's not always a ban because of one certain issue but may be a combination of infractions that causes an increase in points. The software keeps track of the points and issues the infraction, it's not always the mod, supermod or admin that issues the ban. Hope that clears it up for people.

Again, you have the right to voice your complaint to an admin about any situation you feel needs to be addressed.
 
I too do not like the extra large red font in sigs. As a matter of fact, zorrex and cobrawannabe, please remove the extra large, bold red signature. if you insist on further rawburt banning detail, please pm me or any other Admin. I will be more than happy to explain the situation.

TIA gents.

I hate when people empty there ash tray onto the street at a stop light
I hate when people throw cigarettes in my yard.

I hate when drivers turn there left hadn turn signal on and turn right.
I hate when people sit in the right hand turn lane at a light with their turn signal on and don't turn even after the green arrow lights up and have to wait until the light for those going straight is green.
I hate being passed by somone on a cell phone who then proceeds to slow down and I'm forced to pass them when I'm using Cruise Control.
I hate when women say "Your Welcome) because they somehow expected you to say thankyou.
I hate it when people pulling trailers cut you off and nearly slam their trailer into the side of you.

You let me into the shop. I know, I'm special so I was allowed to be there. :)
