And my personal pet peeves, while we're on the topic. Our and Are. They do not sound the same. Nor are they synonomous. Your denotes ownership. Your going to hell is wrong. It's "You're."
I hate people who don't put enough of, or use too much punctuation. I hate turrent as well. Whoever started that must have been laying there one night, drunk off their **obscenity**. People need to type properly!

if u think about it it KINDA sounds like turret with a very silent n so turrent so you can't blame them all, BUT saying your foreign is NOT an excuse, im finnish...and i type fine <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
oh and it's not granade either...that sounds something from dod "granade!"
Turrent is definetely an annoyance, as is the question mark thing...even in RL my teachers do that, i.e. "List so-and-so's stuff?" Irks the crap outta me!
You know what I REALLY hate? When someone doesn't shut up. There was a 10 year old (must've been) on a server I played in. He CONSTANTLY talked through voice com with his VERY high-pitched and VERY annoying voice, and I mean constantly. He'd never shut up. Even when everybody was yelling at him, he'd keep going. What's worse, is he was one of those idiots that says "Need armor and HMG," and dies every time. He also constantly asked to be a commy. The round started, and he made it in, and we ejected him in seconds! :-D Good times after that...
...but then, disaster struck...
...I took a break to eat something, and got on an hour or so later, and joined the first appealing server I saw. Low and behold, the same kid was there, annoyance and all. We had to resort to 'positive reassurance.' We gave him advice and said things like 'Good job.' It was TERRIBLE. Sure, he was slightly productive, but still annoying, and he DID avoid using voice com.
*sigh* This post was to long, and to boring. If you're reading this right now, sorry. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
There was an annoyaning kid on one of the servers i was playing on. I was Aliens and the Marines kept saying all he did was sing down the mic non-stop @_@
After a while as the aliens began owning the marines they blamed everything on this guy. Sonn after we won the round, they called for the admin and got him vote kicked. All Aliens voted no so he could stay and annoy them, but as usual the teams were unbalanced 5 - 9 so they won and he was kicked.
Didnt stop us beating them again though <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
why the *BIP* *BIP* *BIP* *BIP* *BIP* *BIP* are you going nuts at ppl just because they cant spell or speak like a native? <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->
i would love to see most the world speak danish, i could really get a cheap laugh. mayby it is annoying that they dont say things the right way, but you still know what they mean.

p.s. yes i know i cant spell or speak proper english but i'm still able to get the message through
I believe I sum up noob llamas (Only the llama ones) with this one sentence, taken from a new recruit at the US Army from The Simpsons when Skinner reenlists: "whare do i get ma granadez at?!?!?!???!?!?!111!"

I think at the moment my biggest issue is my soldiers (when I'm commander of course) don't do one of two things when they need something:::
1) Give me the name of the location (check... the bottom left? of the screen) you're in.
2) Use a preset message from the menu (default is rightclick right?) so I can find where you are
And then of course they need to make sure to know how many resource points we have, and whether it's worth spending them on something else.
Punctuation and that other stuff doesn't matter to me as long as I can figure out what they're trying to say. As for annoying voice comms, if I can understand 'em, they're at least better than no voice comms.
JR yeah man i hate that **obscenity** to. I mean when 8 guys ask for HMGs and ARMOR when we have 4 RPs. Thats when i think these guys don't even know what game they are playing, to them its CS with crazy future space marine skins.
Did you people know that you can mute players? From Voice Com. and text messages. Just press your "scoreboard" button (TAB by default) and double click on the person's name. There problem solved.
And as for the "finnish and I type just fine" part, well I'm Irish and I type just fine too. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I knew you could mute players, but I can't seem to mute anyone in NS...
I have a few friends who pronounce it "turre<b>n</b>t". It didn't bother me at first but it's everywhere now. These people honestly believe it's spelled with an "n".
I mean, look at your keyboard, how could you possibly mistype it? The N is on the other side of the keyboard <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

I get confused over gernade and grenade.. guess I should know by now.
things people say all the time:
there, their, they're
our, are
your, you're
taken, tooken(my friend always says tooken ITS NOT A WORD!)
Eaten, Aten( same as above)
all that junk
it's funny, because most people who do these will know it's wrong if they think about it.. like asking which is right for saying someone owns their, they're, or there land (their) just people forget about it unless asked or told they do it a lot. I used to do that until people told me not to.. it's not hard to fix.
and what is up with people ending things with question marks? "My door wont shut?" <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
