SMNs at 90 wearing INT and MND gear. I can understand pre-50 when you really dont have many options and don't want to be naked. There really is no excuse after 50. I mean ***, I saw one with an ohat on the other day, and no there were not meleeing or skilling up staff/club/anything.

Old peeve ala 2007: Bards with a God complex.

Timeless peeve: People who beg for help but never show up to return the favor or to events.

Personal peeve: Dual claimers & Campaign Soloers that drag a mob to BFE.

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.
too many times I've had ***that i worked for jacked by people that show up at the last minute "just needing the kill" when the leader doesn't notice they jacked the ***

GARY MOTHERFUCKING OAK.

WE MEET AGAIN.

Also, I agree with this. Though I struggle to find who the leader is half the time.

Ah, I didn't know this. Thanks.

Not that I've ever sent /tells to a tank asking for those things.

Back in the day, running to catch the air ship and the air ship sees you and is like "no, *** you" and takes off right before you touch it.

Why you gotta be such a ***, Air ship? Huh?

Every time I see that the airship is already there, I'm like "Fuuuuuuck I better hurry."

Never know how long it's been there. :S

#6 Racists.

#7 People who say "X" job is dead or "X" job is worthless. Its pointless and causes a bias when it comes time for invites.

I used to have to wait days to do things on bst because of this kind of nonsense.

Even tho when i finally did get to do something i always did great and parsed high and usually did something extra that "saved the day"

it didnt matter i still would have a hard time finding activities to do because at the time it was "common knowledge" that Bst was worthless.

I face #6 far more when I'm cuddle, like ppl refusing to raise, help & so on because "eww I'm not gonna help that fatass galka!" So you don't like a fictional race, well guess what? others do and you need to learn to get over it. I do get racism as Tohi but more so when I'm duoing with my bf cause "eww he's a fatass galka! Y U NO LIKE ELVAAN?!?!?! Q_Q"

My pet peeve- people who are too lazy to look up stuff on wiki for themselves ("What npc do I talk to for XYZ mission?"). Especially when I point out wiki to them and it just gets ignored. And then they get upset when I ignore them. Seriously, I should not have to pull up wiki for you. We need a let me google that for you site for wiki. -.-

/endrant

Also I concur with others who were saying people who ask the same question that was just answered in pt chat ("what conflux?" "Three other people just asked that........................")

Yet another pet peeve of mine is people who are racist, nationalist, or jobist.

A, race has very little impact on the overall usefulness of a character. Because of how various stats influence each job differently, race is more of an aid to play a job one way over another, rather than dictating how useful he is at that job. I've had the same ratio of great people to not-so-great people on all 5 races of each gender.

B, people who take patriotism to a really dumb level just get under my skin. The best example of this I could think of was in a CoP static. The 5 of them were San d'Orian and I was the only person from Bastok. I actually underwent relentless, annoying torment for like 3 hours before the event was over and I quit the static. Jokingly saying "Lastok" or "Suck d'Orally" is fine once in a while, but there's no reason to initiate Vana'diel World War I over it.

C, people who take the whole "lolJOB" thing too far. It's true that some jobs aren't the most useful in the game right now, but each update those jobs change, and by the time we've settled in at Lv.99 I think we're going to see a really good balance of usefulness between each job. Until then, though, seeing people openly mocked for playing jobs that they probably worked really hard on is just ridiculous.

Just remember guys, it's a game. Have fun, but don't be a smeg-head about it.
