Things about ZU that drive you crazy.

Pretty self-explanatory.

When someone in I:SB (Or pretty much anywhere) presents a good argument, then the person he's debating with twists it to make the other person seem like an idiot, and uses a ridiculous counter-argument that makes no sense at all.

When it comes to I:SB, there are a lot of devil's advocates. That bugs me. Not quite trolling, but only there to bring up the opposite and cause contention.... or.. really good debates.

Haha, I love the I:SB. I get to follow standard argument procedure: Pick the most controversial side, and vehemently deny all opposing opinions. Switch sides mid-way through if necessary.

The I:SB works okay for me because I usually don't read any of the posts. I just walk in, state my opinion, and walk back out again. And since this is usually cheerfully ignored, me and the I:SB get along nicely!

I've got to say the drama that is ever present around the place is rather annoying when I do actually appear from time to time.

If the drama weren't so superfluous, it'd be a better place :/

I shall be driven mad by people who quote foot-long posts, and leave a one-line comment at the very end. Particularly in the Art and Writing board, when reviewers quote a 5,000 word chapter and round out the post with a, "Hey, that was cool. Update. ^_^"

Interestingly, I have a habit of quoting long passages of text in PMs. It thus follows that I am starting to drive myself mad. It's a lovely cycle.

I actually like the I:SB, especially GDwarf--and I think Guy Westcott's a good chap too, for the most part. Also, I enjoy playing the devil's advocate in there. It causes people to think, and it's a good intellectual challenge for me too. There, have I essentially offended everyone who's posted so far?

Oh wait, only one more thing is needed.

Hah :0P

But what really gets my goat is when people have these gigantic text sigs. I mean, they write their freakin' biography under each post, essentially.

Hey, if I wanted to know THAT much about you, I'd ask ;0)

1. People quoting large images when it's already on that page. C'mon, people. Show some respect for those unfortunate to have Dial-up.


2. People quoting this a huge post that has different topics, and only comments and responds to one of them. Seriously, what's the point in that?

Ex:

Beth says:

"Yeah, I like tofu. It tastes like nothing, therefore, that is why I like it.

Ever watch Life of Brian? I love that movie! Especially the scene at the end where everyone is singing that one song. The song at the beginning was kind of weird though.

I had a long day today. A part from all the drama and stuff going on, April Fools sure was hectic. I mean, people faking deaths, elaborate schemes to take over the universe, and flying hot dogs, just...wow. What a day."



Then Bob says:

Mainly when people use completely illogical argument, like bring Hitler or the Nazis into something completely unrelated. e.g;

"I love my dog"
"OMG hilter loved his dog!11!1"


Also, when people disagree with me. Seriously, who do they think they are?!?
