What are some of the pet peeves that you have about forums?

 
#2 is the bullyishness and mean girl mentality. Exclusion. And the willingness to believe gossip lies and misinformation about others.

Good one @Angela

Ok I will list this one because I can't get my head around it.

When an admin deletes accounts because you haven't been online for awhile. I was a member on a forum and had almost 6,000 posts and my account was deleted. I was busy with my Grandson, Also when some say to PM them when you're going to be absent. It's not school. I think it's rather funny that they have some silly rules.

Or being banned because you delete yourself for mental health reasons and you don't know when you'll be back. 

 
people who delete for no good reason
Just because they don't give you a reason doesn't mean it wasn't a good one. People have things going in under the surface that they dont talk about. Can't talk about.  Admins still shouldn't get upset about it. Chances are it has nothing to do with you.

Well said :)  

 
Im going to say a few more things and they might be a little "uncalled for" but I dont really care whose feelings I hurt. A lot of admins who I believed were my friends have hurt me to so paybacks a bitch. I'm tired of being nice . Im tired of taking the high road. 

Im tired of entitled admins who think they just have to know their members business or why they delete. Tired of being banned if I delete myself from their forums. That is my right to do so . Its none of their business. They need to get over themselves.  Stop getting butthurt. It has nothing to do with them. 

I don't owe them a damn thing.  And if you get hurt, mad or ban me over stupid crap, it says more about you than it does me. I did myself a favor by leaving your forums.

As an admin, I can't stand forum trolls who get banned and keep sneaking back with a different name and IPN.

I have been mistaken for a troll who kept doing this and was off the forums for 4 months at the time. This happened two years ago and Im still banned from one forum even though I proved that I wasn't the troll. The admin still believes that I am.

That's unfortunate. It's unfair when you get lumped in with real forum trolls. :(
