    To me, I must say it's a user's attitude. The tone that a user posts in conveys so much meaning and I got all riled up when a member posts in a derogatory or rude tone.

    What about you?

    Umm, I just had a user uhh "complain" to me about some one posting on an anime that they have started but not finished listing, so they went to my msn and left this:

    My response was:
    Since before that message he told me on chatango "Tajima5:Tell her to stop touching my anime, next time I won't be as nice" reason why I added the "Now I say"

    THAT kind of user attitude, I dislike with a passion.

    MEMBERS FIGHTING. Gah! Act like an adult and agree to disagree, people! And I don't really care about your personal problems with another member!

    I become thoroughly aggravated when members choose to "intentionally" act immature - meaning they are aware of the fact that how they are behaving is ridiculous, yet they choose to continue on doing so for the fun of it.

    ... and FMB, that sounds horrible.

    People that message me and say "This is how this is done on my forum and you need to do it that way here as well."

    All up for valid suggestions but don't like "backseat administrators."
