Re: Things that really grind your gears...
It's been said many times, but I want to reiterate another time:
-"would" in emotes - This KILLS me, and the worst part is I started to try to justify it FOR the other person. But then I give up when I realize there is no justification.
- When you RP with someone who is a slow typist so you end up standing around for a while waiting for them to respond.
- When you are waiting on someone to respond and it takes so long that you repeat what you said.

When the server decides that your greater sanctuary, invisibility, or stealth is not good enough for it.
And you eat rounds of damage when the spawns shouldn't actually be able to target you.
Made worse when you do a greater sanctuary.. into a god raise, and nothing can or will save you from the launched projectiles of your very angry enemies.
Also badgers and wolves in low level areas seeing you when you have 50+ stealth and tagging along with you to playfully infect your shins with rabies.

Mushrooms.
Failing roll on mushroom spores.
Failing roll on mushroom spores so bad, it doesn't bother sending you to face death's door - it just teleports you through it.

To hell with those things. I'm surprised the damned forest of underdark mushrooms hasn't been utterly incinerated.

-Rolling 1 against fear aura, spending the next 4 minutes in gazing at the screen, eventually bleeding out without a chance for god save.
-My favourite, though: When my character passes through someone they know, but got nothing to say to, at the moment. That someone stops as if they're about to type, I stop as well, we both stand there awkwardly for a minute, thinking the other person is typing, then.... we both realize and walk off.

- People selling 10gp one use chest items for 500 gold or more.
- People holding onto anything for more then 6 months. Come on, you do not need it that bad regardless of your rp, give someone else a turn.

Re: Things that really grind your gears...
To be fair, if a shopkeeper wanted to sell things for less than 500gp, they might as well vendor the item to the peddler or a fence for more gold. They buy one-use items for a few hundred, easy.Flameborn wrote:- People selling 10gp one use chest items for 500 gold or more.

I'm just gonna say this to raise awareness, but there are plenty of disabled players (myself included) who have to take a bit longer to formulate their character's thoughts.Maladus wrote: - When you RP with someone who is a slow typist so you end up standing around for a while waiting for them to respond.
