My pet peeves:
The level 90 whatever who brags to anyone who will listen about how they have this, that, and the next thing as far as gear/weapons/etc/ad infinitum/ad nauseum are concerned, but can't make sure, even with a week's notice that they have a Rank Mission unlocked and key item obtained if needed. Have no maps, no way out if they get in trouble, blah, blah, blah, then complain because they get one-shotted by a level 71 BLM NM in Davoi. (oh! but I am the greatest, why did I die?) OMFG! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Players who have gone from regular AF to AF3. No Dynamis, Limbus, Sky or Nyzul gear. Aren't there still some good pieces worth having?
Players who complain that they have no gil to buy even the basic things everyone should carry. Alchemy and Cooking are easy to level to the point where you can make money. You can do this while waiting in Jeuno for an Abyssea shout.........................LOL
Very few pieces of relic,sky,limbus, nyzul gear is useful right now and most are hardly needed.

Don't work like that on Sylph. Get a shitload of "oh i just wanted to see if I could solo this NM"

Not that many groups do these things anymore. Sure there's still some gear worth having, but most of it isn't *that* important, and if it is, there's still the problem of finding a group to help.
Lots of people have been leveling new jobs since it's easier, some people have started new characters etc... it just isn't that practical to get old gear anymore. You can lowman everything nowadays, but that requires having (enough?) friends, etc, and/or having the jobs to Solo Limbus/Sky.

You are right about the helm though
Im not sure what job you have, but all the jobs that can use twilight can use a haste body too
Edit: wait does sam?
I cap haste on WAR with just W.turb, Timarli Dastamas, Blitz,Goading, +2legs, +1 Feet. Leaving my body free to use w/e i like.
Its Twilight Mail right now, Cause theres nothing better for me right now. (Except +2 body and/or Askar for the Store TP if you're not getting 6/5-hit another way)
But not the helm >.O! So at least one of the jobs can cap haste without Body D:.
Also, My Pet peeve?
*** Dancer's Soloing mobs. I know, "QQ more", this is a QQ Thread, I hate nothing more than watching a DNC take 30 minutes to solo some mob with people standing around them (All of them are praying the DNC dies btw) while it widdles its HP from 100% to 0% without procing a single weakness, essentially wasting the mob just for the sake of "yay, i can solo it! look at me!"
BIG *** DEAL, So can half the other game! get some *** friends and at least try to proc yellow if You're after Seals! Red if you're after the KI! and Blue if you're after the drop!
/nerdrage.
its a QQ Thread! blow me ;; i can rage if i want.
Really, is a soloing dnc really that big of a deal? Why not just offer to help for a faster kill, they're most likely soloing because no will help them anyway. Has nothing to do with arrogance, it's getting ***done yourself instead of sitting around waiting/shouting for help.
Also, pet peeve of mine, groups that sit around waiting for me to die while I'm soloing NMs. I would and have offered but get rejected because X person thinks we'll steal mob or w/e reason.

I've been casually looking for a Genbu pop set as of late, and you'd be surprised how often I see this. Obviously no one is buying truelove chocolate or rocksalt for 100 mil. I don't get it... I had Utsusemi Ichi in my Bazaar for 1,000,000 gil. I only put things there for that much, because I don't want to drop it by accident, nor do I want people to buy it. Some people put signed items there as a 'dedication' for friends who have left the game or significant others. Finally, some people do it because they don't want to see the "linkshell dot" above their name. I remember once I put one byne bills in my bazaar for 600k each and someone bought 13 of them :D
NICE!! I need to setup my bazaar again!!!

What drives me nuts....
1. How about all the damn people who stand around afk at the Abyssea npcs and lag everyone out.
YES. I completely understand that you need to stand there ALL day so the moment you get online, you can pick up your last stone because you still don't know how to manage time in Abyssea.
2. People non stop shouting what they are 'interested in' or shouts for boss/cac wins.
/shout WHM head paper can I have it? please invite me
/shout Glavoid win Can I have it? Sippoy / Rani / Raja win can I have it?
No pop set? Nothing to contribute? I guess I should still go out of my way and make a slot for them in my party to make their dreams come true. Lazy *** Asurans.

God help me if I don't move straight away when I exit my MH, or if I don't run straight into MH when I've gone up the stairs.
After reading that I'm off to afk @ port jeuno just a little beyond the entrance to block you. That wall there is....ridiculous. I usually go from LJ and zone down because it is faster.

My pet peeve (even though I don't play anymore)
Wanna really know?
People who think their king of the world, or otherwise think their too good to help out.
People who *** about stupid insignificant things ... for no reason (not aiming that at anyone, just a generalized /rage, seen it alot in the game)
Idiots... and I know there are a TON of them.

Meh, i guess people asking if anyone is going doesnt really bother me. Not like most people bring 18 people with them to do these things and if im doing it for something and we have the space, ill usually bring them along since they arent hurting me at all by being there.
But, I also get the feeling a lot of people wont do anything for anyone else they get something in return.

Call macros irritate me too. And /p macros for normal stuff like curing, calling an avatar, raising someone, etc. I used to have a call in my pull macro, just because I would pull and run back to camp and the tank would be afk and it would annoy me. But having a call in it was annoying too, so I took it out. There's only one call macro I have now, and it is the absolute most annoying, loud, obnoxious, evil call ever. It's for my shadowbind macro on rng. I didn't used to have a call in it at all, but in my old sky ls I was rng every time to bind Sieryu and Suzaku for their 2hours. And every time, no joke, someone would break the bind. So I added a horrifying, ear-bleeding, rage-inducing call and started spamming the macro until the melees got off the mobs before I would bind. It was amazing and wonderful how fast people started getting off them for me after that. >.> But I don't really use that macro anymore, since I no longer do sky. Calls are evil.

I can relate to a lot of these pet peeves, but these two are the worst for me: Leviathan.Gotterdammerung said: 1#People who ignore. Ignoring people is stupid. Takes 1 second to respond.
Example: Hey can i leech that atma?
Answer: no <I'm playing solo right now>
Response: please
Answer Get lost.
Response: ok =/
if u cant take the 1 second it takes to answer somebody u are either the worlds biggest *** or completely HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.
#3 People who ask a million questions that have alredy been answered in an event and then get upset when no one answers them.
Pay attention alredy-
Lern how to scroll up alredy. + button then enter then + a few times to get to party chat. Taa-daaa all the stuff thats been said.
I sware sometimes its unbelievable how many times u see
What conflux? I mean i can understand if u zoned but ive literally seen that question get asked 12 times in 2 minutes. thats just stupid.
Especially the second one. It's so annoying when I say 'Ok gather at Abyssea-Vunkerl for feet seal farming,' then someone 1 minute later says 'Which area are we going to?'. It's also annoying when people don't read the LS message when it states what event is going on that day, and they'll ask 'Anything going on tonight?'. Ugh.

OMG when I was level 64ish, in a Xarcabard (S) tiger manaburn party, our puller had the Pull macro set to the horn! That was SOOO annoying.
Most of the job emotes annoy me. I suppose they would be cooler if you could change the words to them.

People who complain about ppl asking to leech in Abyssea and fail to realize that it is now virtually impossible to level any job 30-75 without leeching in Abyssea, by simple merit that there are no longer any parties in those levels.

Always reserved for leader/friend of leader I disagree with that. I tend to make alot of Abyssea exp runs, and I don't want to waste my cruor on keys. I prefer to keep it for brews. Same goes for my friends.
I usually leech then find another random person to key. Or I exp properly and let a friend leech, while a random person keys.
