Things that really grind your gears...

[DSM-IV]

When a DM interrupts your RP with a tell that you are using a word incorrectly.

I can use Impossibly in that way! YEAH I LOOKED IT UP! You know who you are.

Also note that British and American English are two different dialects.

The bræw blinks, the bree flutters, and the brow furrows. When the brouw is lifted, you will know Yank from Cockney.

Brow is the forehead, and not another word for eyebrow.

Actually, the Oxford dictionary would beg to differ.

Direct citations, please. Webster's lists eyebrow as one of the definitions, and it's constantly used that way. I don't have an OED with me but it's implausible that it wouldn't list that as one of the definitions. Also note that British and American English are two different dialects.

I'm pretty sure he was saying the oxford dictionary agreed that eyebrow was one of the definition of brow.
Unless you were referring to the quote in your quote, which is just confusing.

Having to rp with DSM-IV, gods the pain the pain. Him and his non stop made up words. =)

[HD52]

Bemused versus amused.

Their versus they're.

Your versus you're.

Except versus accept.

Tortuous versus torturous.

Who's versus whose.

Who versus whom.

Appraise versus apprise.

Arrant versus errant.

Pore versus pour.

Moral versus morale.

Into versus in to.

Forceful versus forcible.

[Lorkas]

For me it's also "thou vs thee". Subject vs object, people! I guess it's a little bit understandable since we don't distinguish the subject "you" and the object "you" in modern English, though we do distinguish "I", "they", "we", "she", and "he" from "me", "them", "us", "her", and "him".

Most people use "thy" correctly at least.

I'll make up my own words and you will like it!

i'll never get to make a dragon necromancer whose goal is to become a dracolich.

Somehow I'm not surprised this would turn into a thread about grammar.

[Diegovog]

When you want to get involved in a faction but then everyone wants to have super secret meetings behind closed doors all the time and you realize you are more waiting than rping because you didn't create a super secret rp situation and you prefer letting ppl get involved

[lordadam12]

Nerfing threads.

LOWLY

[Seven Sons of Sin]

I would murder enchantment basins if I could.

Also, yeah, the sin of the world is bad writing habits. The "would" thing needs to die in a hole.

[The Rambling Midget]

The "would" thing needs to die in a hole.

I assume that these characters never actually do anything, but have a deep longing in their eyes.

*she would pick up the sword... but her anxiety and fear of being ridiculed over poor form paralyze her arm and leave her staring at the resting blade in terror, as one embarrassing scenario after another rushes through her mind*

Character names on the end of crafted items
No description on items crafted placed in public view.
People that rest right where they stand, no matter where or if others are around.

[cptcuddlepants]

Enchanting basins
Rocketing off in a random direction every time I alt-tab back in
The horrifically tiny font and the tiny chat windows
Getting stuck behind doors
Getting ganked by summoned vampires
Servers crashing in the middle of emotional, heartwrenching RP
Devils to my left, driders to my right, stuck in the middle trying to -yoink 5 people and "Resting is not allowed here"

Yes x 100. Actually, of late this is yes x 1000.

[This is not for you.]

-Spending 2hrs RL to decide on a name for your new PC, 4hrs to decide on a build, make PC, realize you screwed up the AB points somewhere during the initial building and give up.

-'You have been ambushed by a party of drow!' drow ambusher: "Uhm."
Me too bud. Me too.

-Spending an obscene amount of time mass producing some RP item, realize typos, or realize your 3am driven writing is the stuff of food processor waste and is barely coherent.

-Spot someone on the player list you've been trying to nab for a while,drop everything you're doing and run to get to the speedy, and then they immediately log off as you get there. Feels bad.

-The forums.

-The abuse of the Tilda key. Stop it. Leave it alone. Tilda never did anything to hurt you.

-Putting a period at the end of a fixture name. I.e "A Statue."

*Rampant swearing* ENCHANTING BASINS

losing in a dice game to a beginner!

[Hatsune Miku]

When surface tourists run around in the middle of Andonur, thinking that they can harass the locals just because the drow can't assign peacekeepers to send their rear ends into the slave pits.

[Iceborn]

Why, I think I got a new siggy.
