Default What bugs you?
Are there any phrases or common misspells or grammar issues on the forums that you think people should have figured out? Just for fun of course.

For me...



"Rimless". It is Trimless!! All tanks have a rim.

"Gauging Interest". Is it for sale or not??

"Giesemann". That's how it is spelled, take note.

Anemone- yes it's a tricky one, but not hard to look up and spell right.

"LOL" kind of bugs me when people use it ALL the time. Are they actually laughing out loud? Or when they post something and it always ends with LOL when it's not even remotely funny. Maybe it's just me.

I just don't like it when I can barely read something because of the persons spelling, grammar and punctuation. Little mistakes are no big deal. I've probably made one or two in this post myself but some of the garbage I read can be pretty bad... ReefCentral is much worse for this.

Heh, I use LOL a lot.

But speaking of "a lot", that brings me to MY pet peeve: "alot". THERE IS NO SUCH WORD, PEOPLE!! You can have "A LOT" of something, or "A LITTLE" of something. You can "allot" an allotment, you can allot a lot, but not you cannot allot a lot of alot.
