What are some of your forum pet peeves? I have only one, really: messed up quotes. Some people forget the /quote and then the whole thing goes wonky...

Really, that's pretty good. I've seen other forums where the members don't realize that the text will wrap,
so they put
carriage returns
in all over the
place to manually
wrap their text.

Other forums have some people with 5" tall signatures.

Of course, people that can't spell, can't use paragraphs (i.e. six vertical inches of solid text), etc. bug me too, but we don't have any of those here either. Golfers must be smarter!

What are your forum pet peeves? Speak with immunity here, and if you hit on something we as administrators and moderators can fix, we'll do so.

I'd have to say people with terrible spelling or grammar. And I'm getting pretty annoyed by the R U LOL ROTFLOL stuff...

This doesn't happen too much here but people who put every f*ing club they own in their signature including their shaft frequencies, grips, bags, gloves, tees, handicap, dogs name, etc - Just list your 14 clubs and be done with it

People who post pictures that are so wide you have to scroll over.

People who feel a need to add a one line or one word reply to every post they see (probably just to up their post count). These are the people that have 1,000 posts but only posted about 5,000 words total :p

People who reply to everything by quoting the person above them. There are so people who do this every damn time, even when the thing they are quoting is 100 lines long. If you have to quote, just pick out the relevant stuff to quote.

I agree with flap.

Stop it with Phil already. You will all be eating your words anyway this weekend as Phil wins the FBR again (although you can't see it, I 'm keeping my fingers crossed).

I believe Mickelson choked last week Erik.

For what it's worth, I think he's going to win another major this year. Let's see. I think he has both the British Open and US Open left to take to make a slam. My pick is the US Open.

Sincerely,
Stacy Solomon

Everyone choked. Tiger just choked the least, or rather, didn't choke but didn't actually go out and "win" anything, either.

I'll bet you $50 he won't win a major this year.

Another forum pet peeve...when people get off topic

Like that time when the one thread was talking about that one thing, and then someone else came in and talked about football and other stuff? Hey, speaking of which, the Super Bowl is today. I wonder how much pre-game stuff I can take before I want to punch someone...

I can't wait to see this year's commercias. What't the big deal about Jessica Simpson's ad anyway?

And I can't wait to see if the Rolling Stones are the walking dead.

I hear there will be a blizzard. Barry heard that it will be 50 degrees on his regular golfing day (Thursday). I told him that he won't be playing golf this week.

I wonder how far I can hit a golf ball with a snow shovel? Hmmm...

Sincerely,
Stacy Solomon

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
