"There's no innovation in today's games". Followed by "Why can't they make a game like x or y".
So true hah. You my friend have made me "lol" in RL , bless you
here is one..
"LOL, 60 dollars for a game plus 15 bucks a month isnt alot of money LOL, get a job or a BETTER job LOL"..
(Was just gonna post "LOL" alot but decided to add it into context, those three letters are used more than prayers in church)
Its relative,depends on where u spend that 15 bux,in the case of wow its a fortune,blizz shuld pay ppl to play wow,and pay big.
I find it funny when ppl who call wow unbalanced is pointed has pvp n00b,yes wow is unbalanced and i dont sux on pvp,ill kick ur feral arse with my ret pal and....oh wait ret pals was the last nerfed and ferals are the half-gods of this season,never mind.

The thing that bothers me is a lot of the cliches used in post writing. For example:
First on my list and most hated:
"heck" -- Since when did this become such an important word to use in every 3rd post? (or the slightly spicy "hell"). Is this trying to introduce some homespun down-to-earthness?
Also: IMO, (and even more annoying: IMHO), TBH, F ex (when we have the perfectly good e.g., ), AFAIK -- all of them totally unnecessary, so why even f--cking bother to abbreviate them?
Okay. I feel better now that I've gotten that off my chest.
I use IMO and IMHO heavily on these forums. People tend to get offended if your opinion differs from their own and start claiming your "facts" as false. Some also tend to say that you're speaking for other people when in fact, no. So they need to be reminded on a regular basis that these are all just personal opinions.
Fair enough. I don't mean to insult you or anyone else. I understand your reasoning.
I just assume that whatever we write is opinion unless it's linked or referenced in some way.
That's because you're smarter than the average Joe around here. I too use "IMO" or just spell it out. I even made my username to reflect that I am only giving my personal opinion, because like DannyGlover said....people jump your shit around here all the time for your "facts."

Anywhoozle, post onward!
I use IMO quite often. I am completely aware that what I am saying is my opinion. Others however..like to harp on your every word as if it is a fact that you are too lazy to substantiate and thus bullshit. I just like to throw an IMO in occasionally for the benefit of those people. I know it probably doesn't help.

I dont like to abbreviate when I type, so I'll actually use phrases like "in my opinion", "personally", and "I think". I guess sometimes this is a bit too subtle, though, because some people stll dont get that I'm stating an opinion when I use these.
As for using the word "hell", I do it sometimes. Not to add any kind of effect to my sentences, I just type the way I speak is all.
Yes, I abbreviate quite a lot when writing with anything other than a keyboard, but I don't see the point on a keyboard. You save half a second at most by abbreviating a nine-character title to two characters. Just doesn't seem like a worthwhile trade of time and clarity.

I was lured into trolling this thread by the overwhelming aura of darkness and bitter resentment exuding from its title. I'm happy to see I wasn't disappointed. I can FEEL your hatred! Good. GOOD!
My all time favorite... "<insert any game here> is the biggest failure in MMO history because I don't personally like it." See this for more of this in one thread than even I thought was possible... LOL

Here's another good one if it hasn't been posted yet
'If you like ______ so much then go back and play it. It still exist'

What about people who don't realize the irony in their own posts?
' You obviously work for ______ company. I know a shill when I see one'
"F2P in x months" <-- top of my list.
"We all know [ insert some subjective opinion, usually stupid ]"
"Everyone thinks/says [ insert some very subjective opinion, usually wrong ]"
"Fact: ..." Talking about something that is at best a hypothetical claim.
blah blah blah "says hello"
"i'm looking at you" blah blah
"color me" blah blah
