PeavyTime Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 What things do people do on message boards that drive you absolutely bonkers? -Signing your name! Seriously people, we know who you are, you don't have to put your name or stupid nickname after every post. Lip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Not knowing the difference between then and than, lose and loose, and not knowing that "alot" isn't a word. It's "a lot". Just stuff that makes me think that kids aren't being taught anything in school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigruss Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 When people make a larger mistake like "except" for "accept." I could care less about smaller mistakes that are obviously just minor typos or brain farts, but when people use a completely different word just because it sounds similar frustrates me.

knightni Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 People who don't know where the apostrophes are supposed to go. It's the '80s, not the 80's. Also, '10 stands for 2010. It is not 10'. That would be 10 feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
