ANOTHER PET PEEVE IS WHEN PEOPLE TYPE IN CAPTITAL'S, IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE SCREAMING

Sorry, but I didn't hear any SOUND at all.

O, and one more: Showing off solid color or ultra-simple bodies and expecting praise out the yin yang. If it took you mor time to drive to and from the hobby shop to get supplies than it did to actually paint the stupid thing, chances are we all have one like that and nobody really wants to see yours. I mean, congrats, you managed to make your first 50% semmetrical racing stripe. Good on you. 

Yea, I'm a real pr ick with a bad attitude. Oh well

haha, I only paint simple 2 colour designs now because my shell will get beat up quickly anyway from the huge jumps. Though even if its plain, I like seeing others body shells, give me ideas for my next plain 2 colour paint scheme

 Aside from the usual "is it gas" question, or the parents with ill-fitted primates for children that we all love to whine about, my only other real complaints are internet based. The new guys who don't know and won't listen, sure. What really bugs me is what I call "RC girlfriends". The needy ones who have to post some meaningess drivel every time they run. I see it on all forums, not just here. "Hayyy guis! Guess what I just learned!" or "Heyy look at me! I did this and I'll never make that mistake again!!!" or "Let's all watch this crappy youtube vid I made, just like the one I posted yesterday!" And on and on and on. There's only a couple of those here on RCU, and it's not so bad until you see it popping up every....single....day. Message boards are not your own personal blog. If we really cared that much, then start a blog and those who really wanna know what kind of sandwich you ate while running at the park will go find it and give you all the attention you are craving!

When extremely entertaining nitro vs electric threads get locked! For the love of fun why!?!  I couldn't wait to get home & read all the new posts and man....they did not disappoint. My second rc pet peev is when clever follow up ''who won nitro vs electric poll'' threads get locked too.....boooo!

 

Imagine the horror if a mere pedestrian that insultingly refers to our ''hobby'' as toys were to read that thread.... thinking they may gain the respect our toys...ahem....hobby deserves!

Those that use the terms nitro, mister, or man in their self-chosen screen name because they think it makes them sound bada$$.

you forgot solid colors(usually black) with that ebay monster energy sticker for that pimp ass unique look that no one else has ever done (ohh they need to standardize a sarcasm font, and tag on the internet)

Aw, come on you can't complain, it lasted two days and 9 pages, that's almost a record for that debate. As for the poll follow up, there was only one option, the cheeky bugger!!

Don't worry, like I said in the thread, give it another 2 or 3 months and we'll be at it again.

OT: I also hate masking, nearly forgot that.

Another peeve of mine is when someone quotes you but edits the quote, if you want to address one thing in particular that I said it's probably better to make it bold, otherwise I feel like I am being taken out of context.

Everything is seen, committed to memory, and you never know what might be going on behind closed doors.

I will tell you though...It takes a history of bad behaviour, multiple shunned opportunities to improve, at least two stints on MS (Moderated Status), before we would even consider banning someone. It is actually incredibly difficult to be the subject of disciplinary action here, we prefer to remove posts and give people multiple chances to understand how we want them to 'fly right', before even dropping the first MS hammer on them. The wheels grind slowly, but don't worry, persistently disruptive members ALWAYS get ejected in the end.

Rick, this isn't the first complaint I've heard about you recently (yes, of course it is from people with whom you have vehemently disagreed, and yes, of course it is natural for those people to want you to get into trouble, however, there is no smoke without fire, if you get my meaning). Please try to be less cutting in your posts, honestly, be nicer, for my benefit if nobody else's. Thanks.
