Bad Bbs Habits

[Tribal]

What are little things that one would call "bad habits" that you preform whilst on the bbs?
I usually ask a question in a thread or sometimes post something random and then never look back.

Now how cool is that?

this was acctually a pretty original question but unfortanly i dont know, i guess when i fuck up my grammar like a raped polar bear

Hitting the 'post it' button right after someone's beaten me to saying whatever I was saying.

Stupid slow-ass typing skills. >:(

I thought posting at all was the only bad bbs habit there is.

IMO, the only time that's true is when someone's obviously being a +1'ing postwhore. If there's something worth reading in the post, then I don't see why spending time here is a bad thing.

If only there weren't so many +1's to sift through to find the good stuff. I feel like I'm drilling for oil with a teaspoon here sometimes.

I do this a lot.
Also, typing something, going the toilet, coming back and posting, and the whole thing I said has been discussed in detail.

I need to shit faster.

Yes, that might be quite the concern, concidering your massive post count.

God damnit you ungrateful prick! I was wondering why you didn't thank me for answer your question that one time!

Cussing way too much. I just can't find an alternative to "ah shit" or "fucking hilarious", because they make sense while others don't.

One more post with cuss words in it. Go figure. :P

I don't know. There are times when people obviously +1, but I'm a bit more sympathetic, a lot of the time what you want to get across in a thread will only take up one or two lines. I know quite a few users who barely make posts longer then a sentence, but they aren't here to +1, it's just how they post and how they enjoy NG. I should know, I post short replies often, but never to gain a higher number. I just enjoy posting.

I'm seeking professional help as we speak.

Nice, dude. You just gave my neighbor a heart-attack.

Oh no, wait. He's having a seizure. *sigh* He really needs to stop eating those cookies. He's already 500 : lbs as it is.

Getting banned.

I have a weird habit of constantly toggling my Caps Lock on and off repeatedly after posting a message, or while another page is loading, or when I am half-way through typing a message and thinking of something to type.

Oh, I'm sorry, that came out wrong. I've nothing against people who like to keep things short and simple; as long as it's relevant in some way and / or shows a genuine interest in the thread it's posted in, it's not a +1 as far as i'm concerned. Yes, there is a limit on how much interest and relevance you can pack into one line, but as long as it's there, who cares how long the post is?

This is what I had in mind when I was on about obvious +1'ing:

[robotking98]

I just post question threads, and post shit on other threads, even though I'll never look at them.

I tend to do the same every now and again. Spell "and, as nad" so people make fun of me lol. Or I get pissed and make a rape post, then hope to fuckall god I don't get banned for 1...3...5..7.. days etc. *Shudders* I hate banns..they don't piss me off I just hate the idea. I am on alot of chatrooms so getting banned + me do not work well.

I usually post random faces that have nothing to do with the thread at all.
