Things that make me stop reading.
I was just thinking about things that, on the forum, make you just stop reading or ignore the post after a minutes.
Stuff like obvious spelling and punctuation errors (spelling is really easy to fix, just use the spell-check function)
Lots of Block Quotes (guess why?) Though one or two is usually ok but after that my eyes just sort of glaze over and I stop reading. (well, I've used it once but I was using it as an attack which is what they're almost always used as.)
Writing in all caps, even for a single sentence. Just one word is emphasis (though if you know a little html you can use bold or italics to get the same effect) more than that makes me think you're a 13 year old banging on the keyboard.
Excessive use of punctuation....

I have an insanely hard time reading something if it has the word "like" two or three times in every single sentence.
...
Like, what are you talking about? I don't see, like, anything wrong with it? It's just, like, the way some people talk. Duh! đ
...
OH MY GOD like you are the coolest effin person in the entire effin universe um we should like have totally awesome convos like this all the time...like yea đ
...
hehe Imagine being surrounded by people who actually speak like that. I live in Cali, so you know the whole valley girl thing. It's annoying.
...
Not too many valley girls here...but around here after each sentence people say "you know"
That's another thing that would force me to stop reading something

Whereabouts are you? I know people who end sentences like that, you know? đ¤Ŗ

Mmmm... cheese...
I know what you mean, I'm always correcting the way people talk. They always tell me to shut up, that they can speak however they want. đ They'll never learn with that attitude.

Do what I do, tell them this...
"All I am saying is learn English or get the f*ck out of my country"
It works wonders for me.

When people copy and paste Lee greenwood songs or the star spangled banner to use in an argument.
...
Wow, I can honestly say I've never seen that before. Do they do that a lot? đ

only once so far, today actually right before i read this post, i was amazed and didnt know what to say, although i stopped after the first verse anyway i was astonished that that person would think it would pass for an actual debate.

Cutting and pasting whole news articles just to make a point that could have been summarized in less than 4 sentences and just referenced the article.
Cutting and pasting entire articles plus any commentary on said articles, plus any comment from another forum added in for flavor.
I think you get the point.

Cutting and Pasting things that aren't your ideas or have nothing to do with the forum topics but that you think make you sound smart.
