Awful What Little Annoyances Would You Like To Vent About ?


Grr! Not a front page item, but I need a quick vent.
Don't ever put " or "< >" characters in the description field when listing a name at Bazaar!- At least not w/ my OS/Browser config. This message will appear: This field cannot contain ", < or > characters, which is OK, but it won't go away despite deleting, erasing, starting fresh w/ a new listing or by pounding the desk and swearing at it.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/the-break-room/94700-what-little-annoying-pet-peeves-do.html

A couple of others:
-The occasional loss of a freshly typed post that will vanish after a new search in the same browser window.
-A verification code that you have to retype because you mis-typed it the first time around.
-A form that you have just filled out, but due to a mistake or ommission, you are returned to the form to correct the error but all of the other fields have been deleted and must be refilled.
-A site that won't allow your browser to remember your user name when logging in.


Anyone else out there have any pet peeves that they would like to vent on?

Yes, this too ... plus I can never find my passwords (and I'm always pressed for time whenever this occurs).

I hate being sticky.

When my dad tells me to do something when im in the middle of coding

When a teacher teaches something wrong (i been suspended a few times for pointing things out to teachers... long story)

When my dogs cry for no apparent reason. (They have food, just been outside, just played and they still cry)

When my parents buy the wrong dish soap lol (I will only use Dawn, anything else irritates my skin )

Well, it wasn't difficult to bump into a couple other peeves during the course of the day. I hate it when companies, (In this case NameSuckure), send you 1-2 emails/ day telling you that one of your names will/is about to/is expiring for 6 weeks following the day you transferred the name to another registrar. NameSecure, putting it politely, really sucks. Now everything that comes in from NameSewer goes directly into "Junk", to keep the wild babes, viagra, phishing, and crazyspeak people company.

crazyspeak... did I say that? I just ran out and regged the .com which was avail.. Am I crazy? Crazyspeak.com hmm... I like it.

Always manages to get a domain out of nothing, does our Michael...!

The MOST annoying thing only has to be, when i type out HUGE messages on sites (10 - 15 minutes) and it says the page has timed out, grrrrrr!

I forgot to add one thing: When a domain name registered with RegisterFly is about to expire ... Oh My Goodness , I got an email or two every SINGLE day for two months prior to the expiration of the domain 'reminding' me to renew my domain . Man, it was so annoying, I felt like labeling it as "SPAM"!
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=94700

Got over it though !


True_Snake


PS: Just had to go to Dictionary.COM to check the spelling of "labeling".
