Quick Poll- Worst MGoBlog Trend
What's pissing you off right now? Feel free to add your own, but I will have to approve before it gets listed. Sorry if this doesn't work so well. It's an expirement on my part and the website hosting these polls is pretty new.
UPDATE: Lots of suggestions coming through. Kudos to whoever suggested "Polls," and I have to agree with those noting "Posts with nothing but a snarky picture/video" (especially kittens), but I won't be adding anything new. I'll try to post some of the more creative and horrifying at some point.
UPDATE UPDATE: Um yeah... you guys about covered it. I think most of what came up fell into some subset of my initial poll options. For what it's worth, RR discussion appear to be the worst MGoTrend by a landslide at the moment. I can live with that. Thanks to all who participated.
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE:Thanks to profitgoblue for balancing things out with the "love fest" thread. My intent was not to generate any more negativity than we already have here. In retrospect it's an obvious consequence, but I hope people feel better having had a chance to vent. Can't make something better without knowing what's making it worse.

no lack of quit wit around here, at least
February 17th, 2011 at 11:27 AM ^
I believe you mean "quick".
February 17th, 2011 at 11:28 AM ^
I only wish my error had been a case of entrapment!
February 17th, 2011 at 11:46 AM ^
a quit wit?

The dead "horse" gets me every time. I love it.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:59 AM ^
Looks more like a Donkey to me.....
February 17th, 2011 at 12:13 PM ^
Looks like a mule to me...
February 17th, 2011 at 1:23 PM ^
Donkey:
Mule:
A mule looks like whatever horse they bread it with.
February 17th, 2011 at 3:13 PM ^
but no cigar.
February 17th, 2011 at 3:27 PM ^
Fun fact:
A Mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse.
A Hinny is the offspring of a female donkey and a male horse.
Fun fact No. 2:
Taylor Lewan hates them all.

That's why I put the word "horse" in quotes. I love the "beating a dead horse" saying and LB's avatar makes me think of it. That is probably the thing that annoys me most about the Board - the constant re-hashing and recycling of the same old topics.

I don't think that's necessarily true.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:30 AM ^
I dunno. I don't consider it a problem but there are a couple posters who it seems have a post in every thread, a lot of them with little to no relevance to the topic.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:58 AM ^
How about that Alabama fan that poisoned trees at Auburn? Pretty crazy, eh?
February 17th, 2011 at 12:20 PM ^
I won't name names. That's childish. Not you though. I genuinely enjoy your Amnesty International-like commitment to aiding the exiled in Bolivia.
February 17th, 2011 at 12:29 PM ^
I was preparing for a good argument that would have left both of us feeling bad about ourselves. Oh well. Maybe next time?
February 17th, 2011 at 1:33 PM ^
Amen. There is a tendency now to post : lol, I agree, or Go Blue, just for the sake of posting something. If you don't have a thought or a funny pick GTFO, at least in my opinion.
February 17th, 2011 at 2:46 PM ^
Go Blue
February 17th, 2011 at 11:41 AM ^
For going into meta "this statement is false" land.
February 18th, 2011 at 11:26 AM ^
At least someone got it.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:08 AM ^
He's gone, it's over... some of us are trying to move on. Bringing it up over and over again won't do anything except piss everbody off. Let it go.

February 17th, 2011 at 11:13 AM ^
combined with your avatar made me laugh so hard I'm crying...
"You don't wear white after labor day! Am I the only one around here who gives a shit about the rules!?"
February 17th, 2011 at 11:10 AM ^
Other: people who think people who disagree with them are only disagreeing with them because of groupthink.
If you post something and 90% of the responses are negative, maybe that's not because the negative responses are being driven by groupthink, but rather because your idea is idiotic and people have arrived at that conclusion independently.

BTW, Binary code uses 0 and 1's, not exclamaion points and 1's.
(-:
February 17th, 2011 at 11:37 AM ^
To be honest, that would make binary code so much more exciting...!!!11!!!1111!!!
February 17th, 2011 at 12:11 PM ^
You spelled exclamation wrong.
February 17th, 2011 at 12:31 PM ^
You're totally missing the point of the "!!!!!11!!!!!111!11!!!!!!1!!!!"...
It has nothing to do with binary code.

I'll agree that I do spend an unhealthy amount of time here, but can you please explain what I'm personally doing to ruin this site?
February 17th, 2011 at 12:46 PM ^
The question is, what AREN'T you doing?
February 17th, 2011 at 12:51 PM ^
Fair enough.

Debating RR's flaws and merits followed closely by the very recent trend of people creating topics with the title being just the player's name.
February 17th, 2011 at 1:02 PM ^
what I hate most is the fact the majority of the people on here have dial-up since it must take them a few minutes to click on a post and wait for it to load when it is a vague title
February 17th, 2011 at 1:34 PM ^
Epic run-on sentence is epic.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:13 AM ^
It hasn't been an issue so much recently, but in the past people have been posting way to many images/videos that add nothing to the conversation. Also this site is becoming more mainstream, so the bridge is getting bigger and the trolls are coming out to play more. Nothing can really be done about the trolls, but we could stop feeding them and making them stronger.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:23 AM ^
Someday the voting will return to relevancy and we can send said Trolls to Bolivia.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:25 AM ^
Seems trivial and childish but for some reason, the point system when it was working actually improved the quality on the board and was able to weed out the morons. Can't come back soon enough.
February 17th, 2011 at 11:36 AM ^
posting way to many images/videos that add nothing to the conversation.This. Not that I'm not guilty of it. Also, "this"
