I feel like one of my biggest pet peeves are guests who come to a site and rely on the chatbox as their lazy source of answers. Questions like: Is this site active? When there is a button that links you to ALL recent posts, and threads just a click away. Or: What's the plot here? Etc. Etc.

More or less members who come to a site and don't bother to look at ANYTHING. They come, glance at the layout, then go straight to the chatbox to flood it with their pointless questions. It's SO disrespectful. It's like going to an author's book signing, getting up to the table, and being like: Yeah, so like what is your book even about? I mean I was gonna read it but my god, there are soooo many pages.

If you can't take the time to read a paragraph of a plot, glance over the rules, then why are you joining? I'd also count this as an admin/member pet peeve because even when I'm on someone else's site. I always feel bad for the creator when they get someone who clearly will never take the time to even look over their plot.
