When I make errors in the site census and am unsure if the totals are correct because I may have just placed the statistic under the incorrect gender group. I know it is me cause it is something I am prone to doing; usually, I catch it before it becomes an issue. x.x I hate when this happens causes so much confusion on my part and going back to re-count can be a headache; chances are I would mess the count up too! x.x

i hate it when other sites advertise on the forum multiple times a week. : /

esp when you have a rule against it.

like how many times do you need to advertise? D:

- When you are the backbone of your staff team. If you're active and trying to work on the RP, so is the rest of the staff, but once you decide to take a break or hiatus for whatever reason, all progress within the team seems to come to a slow. And then you get a whole mess of "Hey why's everyone inactive?" from members and you gotta point out your own personal hiatus and remind staff to at least continue to pop in and keep the community alive.

- "Hey the faceclaim/availability thread needs to be updated." I'm well aware, Tommy. The fact of the matter is my life doesn't revolve around updating threads 24/7. Sorry your name isn't there, but it'll be updated eventually. Maybe in like... an hour... or five. Y'know how it is.

- When you're the only person that's the most code-inclined and therefore trusted to do most of the work/editing. There have been times when I've sat at my computer for 8 hours or more.

I can understand if it's making a thread from scratch, but come on, Suzie, if it's an existing thread you're trying to edit you can just CTRL + F what you want to find among the gibberish and go nuts.

- When you end up putting big fat notices of "MAKE SURE YOU USE *THIS* TYPE OF USERNAME AND NOT *THIS*" (and believe me, it was big, bold, orange, and below the registration button), but people just either blatantly ignore it or don't care and want to see if they can get away with it. Then there's the whole sob story of "Do I really have to re-create my account?" Like yes, Susan, because it's tearing my OCD apart that your name isn't in order with the rest of the 100+ members.

Oh, and when they take forEVER to re-create the account, too. This especially stands for types of RPs that have a "Verification" system where you gotta be added into a group in order to see the full view of the forum - including critical boards for them to review once they're verified, too.

- When you're a canon-based RP but with custom group names and you know for a fact that a person never read ANY of your info because they used the canon group name when trying to join your RP (ie. if you're in a Pokemon RP set in Johto, but this person says they'd like to apply for being a part of Team Rocket when you decided to re-write the lore and enemy team into "Team Opal"). Please, for the love of god, my fingers were going to fall off from the amount of writing and lore and coding I had set up for your eyes to see. Please use your eyeballs. Please appreciate the custom work that I've been dying to know if you like it.

- When you have a shop system implemented and there's always that odd player that goes "Oh... I have to PAY for that?"

So much for the positivity of trying to create a dynamic RP experience that only requires a couple extra posts to make the moola.

Just ALL of this.

Anyone that tries to guilt me into anything gets laughed at. I am heartless kitten and I feel no shame. Only irritation towards the people that keep trying this on me.

sb: *continues to harass staff over applications despite being told on at least three separate occasions not to and having other approved characters they refuse to do anything with, all while showing 0 regard for other desires and responsibilities outside of app processing*

me:

I'll actually respond to this later with actual peeves - but as a fellow Cat-admin, this is me as well. You can guilt me as much as you want. I had several people do that over time to try to get their op-crap on my board and no. You can sit with everyone else or leave the classroom. No one gets preferential treatment on my board. I mean it helps that even people who I staff with are usually my husband/best friend so like- I'm mean to them, in general, but in a loving way. I let them have their character freedom just like everyone else but will suplex them if they try to break lore.

Members making "suggestions" and recommending changes, when your site already CLEARLY has it but they didn't even take a second to ya know.. LOOK. 

whispers don't forget the members who have to soapbox their bad day(s)/rl troubles

Jesus on a pogo stick, those too.

Cause I always have issues and peeves, I am back again.

When members change the application or use very bright colours in a posting/plotting/threading template. I am going to state this now, I do not mind remotely my members changing the application if it includes all necessary information about the character or even if they do some colour changes, but please, for the love of God, try to avoid practically blinding me with bright colours. x.x I like it better when my eyeballs are not smoking because they are being blinded by an incredibly bright pink you used as a background colour. This goes similarly with templates mostly because as stated, bright colours just hurt like hell on the eyes.

Can I get an amen?

Or how about the people that - while everyone is having a very engaging conversation, come in just to talk about something very unrelatable that only pertains to them so that conversation gets focused on just what they are saying or in most cases - conversation straight up dies
