Pot Forum Pet Peeves

What are some of your pet peeves that have developed from reading pot forums?

When 5 randoms say something has worked for them and then one member you follow/respect comes along and says "That's shit." lol

It seems like people do not Fn read threads on pot forums. Most of the time it seems like most get through at least most of the OP, but forget the rest of the thread. This makes 1000+ reply threads even more tedious. (this might be the saving grace of this thread as all replies after the tenth will be redundant. :D)

The ancestral stories of the different varieties. All of them make perfect sense yet they all contradict each other.

People who agree with each other and yet they find a way to bicker somehow.

What bugs you guys about pot forums?

My number one pet peeve with this site are those damn pictures that you hover your mouse over and then it enlarges the pic. How damn hard is it to just post an image tag that displays the damn pic at the right size to begin with?

That is a method of posting pics without having pics hosted by the site.Some people feel more comfortable that way.

You can still post the pics from an off site storage without doing that. The pic below is just some random pic that comes up when I did a google search for the word "weed". It is not on this site.

one of mine is when people make useless posts in threads that are just one or two words, and when someone quotes another post with lots of big pictures. Those things clutter up a good thread with useless garbage.

yeah this


quoting 4-5+ big pix right after they were initially posted is annoying.


oh and I am 100% positive I've seen that big ass pile of weed picture before. I kinda sorta wanna say it was L0ugrew? (wtf it censored that without the 0) I know others remember him... pretty sure it was on this site I saw it.

Yes! This annoys me as well. I think one reason that pot forums suffer from this is so many pictures are taken in the first place because the camera never, ever, does our plants justice.

I also hate when someone points out a shitty post. That post, by definition has become a shitty post as well.
 
people who blow up over anything stupid maybe its just cause they forget what it was like to be a noob. i mean really if ya dont want to answer the questions then why post and talk shit about how the person is or isnt searching blah blah blah so either tell them your opinion and then a friendly suggestion on how to search them selves. or just shut up click on the back space button and find a different thread were you can actually help some one. for the record some people either arent computer savy ,have slow connection speeds or use there phone to surf web or just to impatient so either help them or just skip the thread instead of being a prick. with that being said i can understand some times but alot of time its uncalled for

OP said:

The problem you mentioned is human nature. Visit any other type of board and you will see the same thing. I was reading a thread on a different type of forum and the OP had been banned since 2008. People were still directing questions at the OP.
... and when someone quotes another post with lots of big pictures. ....
Friggin' lazy ass quote whores. Hate 'em! 50 pictures and the reply is, "Nice grow dude."

The way commercialism and greed has triumphed over free speech.

They way people are so quick to insult each other the minute they have a disagreement.

Moderators who close threads then reopen it to have the last word, unless of course they are reopening the thread to explain why it was shut.

In "New Posts" you see the title of a thread (in English) that seems REALLY interesting then when you click on it, it's a foreign language post. :dunno:
