People that hit me up for no other reason other then to beg for free art by contacting me, telling me what a HUGE fan they are, and praising me to high hell hoping to butter me up when they ask for a free drawing of their character, if i say no, they repeat it over and over again, then when you finally tell them it won't happen, they got nothing to say to you.

Compulsive liars, fat guys telling me about how all these 105lb hotties they meet randomly are just throwing themselves at them and every girl they come across just can't resist their charms, or how they can snap limbs in a 6 on 1 fight like they're chopsticks etc, it makes me feel like they think i'm some sort of naive idiot just because i try to be nice instead of calling them on it.

People that utterly REFUSE to accept the fact you don't rp and relentlessly beg you to "just give it a try".

People that send you an IM and have nothing to say other then idle small talk, respond with *nods* to everything, then when you stop responding (because really, what should my reply to *nods* be anyways?) they send you a =) or a *hugs* just to provoke a response, either carry your part of the convo or stop sending fucking messages.

People that contact you for the first time and immediately launch into details that are utterly disgusting about their private lives.  I've had guys list off the animals they've fucked within 10 minutes of meeting me.

People that have lived in the furry sandbox around likeminded people for so long, they forget how crazy and bizarre their fetish or lifestyle or views on things are and utterly flip out when you say "that's weird" or give a dissenting opinion.  Hey, if you fuck dogs and believe that animals are more intelligent then people and you'de kill a man to keep him from harming a gerbil, that's your right to think that, but don't forget YOUR VIEW IS NOT NORMAL, and either take dissenting viewpoints with a chuckle or good spirited debate, or stop telling this shit to strangers!

People that have nothing to say to you but constantly send out youtube links to 10 minute videos or other random shit THEY find funny and rarely is.  If you don't watch it immediately you get nothing but "Did you watch it?  Did you watch it?  Hey check that out!" till you do.

But I did beat up 6 dudes in a fight once...granted they couldn't fight worth shit and weren't even hitting me hard(think windmill slap/punch gangbanger wannabe style) so that could have something to do with it since i'm no martial artist or anything...but my dad did teach me how to fight.

The IM thing I totally agree with...just damn, people expect you to carry an entire conversation by yourself. Stop wasting my fucking time. Same thing with the youtube and flash links...these people usually lack social skills and are the same idiots who nod at everything.

>>23 What he said =p

Pet peeve of the moment for me is gushing praise xD - You know how it goes "OMG this is amazing, that is amazing, I'll never be as good as you" - ok, stop right there. Have you even tried to put pen to paper... stuck with it for a bit, practiced, tried again, refined, tried again?

Provided you have one hand, and one working eye you have pretty much all you need to draw, the rest is down to practice and patience (A little bit of natural skill goes a long way, but isn't essential)

But... don't ever say "I'll never be as good as you =< " - that's just defeatism.

I hate people who will immediately do something after I tell them that particular something is annoying. Then they chuckle as if "hey har har it's funneee cause you told me it's annoying."

YES. I told you so you DON'T DO IT. JESUS.

This is a difficult question to ponder, because I realize I myself exemplify, even if only slightly, many of the things that bother me about other people. I doubt I'm the only one. However, here's a crucial quality that grinds my gears.

People with the inability to see more than one side of an argument. I have found very, very few people with extreme views who have sufficiently been able to convince me in any debate. I'm not saying don't have a strong opinion or don't be stubborn, but understand the other person's argument. If you really feel somebody else has a terrible opinion on a matter when you're talking with them, the evidence should speak for itself.

And of course, like all people, there are some times when I simply can't see it from another person's perspective. So what I do is I go out and I ask others questions until I find somebody with a different view (whether online or in real life), and we chat. I find nearly every time I walk away with more sympathy toward the other side, even if my views remain solid.

Being annoyed has nothing to do with insecurity. Insecurity gives one a sense of doubt. Being annoyed rises one to anger. Different emotions.

I don't wanna hit a sore-spot but I can't stand it when I take the time to give sound lengthy advice on /crit/ and the person looking for a critique either never replies or gets angry because he/she was somehow expecting praise for a juvenile anime scrawl.
Also, constant apologising ahead of crits by prospective artists annoys me:
"Hi guys, here's some really bad scribbles for you to critique, yeah they're crap i messed up the hands and face and legs rofl."
"Here's another terrible one. I wasn't trying."

Also online arguing over Playstation 3 vs Xbox by console fanboys. Jeez, they bitch and flame each other like no other group of people online over whichever corperate cash-cow their parents got them for christmas.
"ps3 has no gaems"
"xbox has huge failure rate"
"Halo/Metal Gear Solid sux"

I concur.
Actually, I was going to say something about it, but, alas, ye have beaten me.

Something I find annoying is when people constantly jerk their head around as they speak.

Also, chewing gum as loud and as annoyingly as they can.  Mouth open, saliva pouring out, popping, snapping, OMNOMNOMing... *make it stop!*
Not really personality traits but little things anyway.  :3

good games on it. Why bother when I could just

So doing something illegal is any better? (I don't care if you have the game itself. Just because the company doesn't dive customers a proper form of backup doesn't mean they get to cheat. 2 wrongs doesn't make a right.)

Okay, my use of the word "choice" was not entirely correct, I was stuck for words and trying to put across the point that some furries are mistaken for believing that their interest is something that NEEDS to be told to everyone, as though it were a basic sexual orientation like being gay or bi that may impact on others.
I agree fully with >>132 that if being a furry is THAT important to you, you are taking what is just a fandom far to seriously for the good of your own mental health.
I saw the FA account of a fur who had photos of himself wearing a fursuit at the supermarket and the park, IMO telling everyone you're a furry verbally is no different to this kind of extreme obsession.

>>47 So doing something illegal is any better?

Squaresoft never released Seiken Densetsu 3 (what would've been Secret of Mana 2) in the States. Many other games also never got an official U.S. release such as Terranigma, Tales of Phantasia, Rudora no Hihou. What's the chance of those games EVER ending up on the Wii's Virtual Console? I see playing fantranslated Roms as being no more wrong than watching fansubs of animes that haven't made it over here yet, or downloading J-Rock albums which have not yet had a Stateside re-release.

Still illegal. There can be many reasons why something is not released in another country. For instance, Donnie Darko was never released in Singapore. That doesn't mean I'm allowed to pirate it.

Well, when Nintendo puts those Jap RPG's on their Virtual Console in English I'll go buy a Wii and play them "legally," til then they can kiss my Emu-playing ass. Same with any Japanese Rock band, sure I'll buy your album, when you release it in America at U.S. price. Cuz there's no way in hell I'm paying $40 for an audio CD. I'll bittorrent first, lol.

Not legal, but not illegal either. As long as there is no one holding the license of publishing the object of desire (e.g. a video game) in a country where it wasn't released yet, you don't violate any of your country's laws. As soon as some company gets the license and distributes something in your country, THEN it gets illegal. That's the reason anime-fansub groups stop working on projects which have been licensed recently, while they still sub it.
