Personally, I hate it when users know they’re breaking a rule but test it anyway and then whine about how unfair it is. I think it’s extremely childish behaviour.

Message for all: try not to name names here though. It’s ranting but not bullying. (wink)

Yes! We name no names! This is about behaviour that anyone can participate in! Don’t get too specific or personal! Don’t be like “I hate when a staff member says they’re going to take the dog for a walk and then goes and has a nap and farts in the bedroom”. It’s just kinda weird

I don’t like when staff members comment on threads after they’ve been closed unless it’s for official reasons, I can forgive mistakes of course but not conversations.

I shall promise to start doing this to annoy Elly. (smirk)

Did I add the plugin where it warns staff members before they comment on a closed thread? If I didn’t, I was supposed to!

Another one for me is when people remove each other’s names from the spreadsheet. DON’T DEFILE SHEETY

It’s something I do, actually. I always commit to doing something super helpful for the Forums and then have 100 other things to do and forget. BAD SHANOS

Here are some of my sheet peeves:

  • Not claiming tasks properly
  • Unproperly claiming tasks
  • Claiming tasks in a way that isn’t correct

I completely agree. Especially with number 2. Number 2 is the worst

I’m not sure how much of a problem it is now, but I remember when I used to fill in the Sheety before Cali and El took over. People would just remove other people’s names for no reason. Like, they wouldn’t even add their own! They’d just remove other people’s!

Okay but that’s straight up disrespectful. I think there should be a rule against that. With consequences. But that’s just me. :man_shrugging:
