There are user who, for instance:
1. reply message with short message such as: "Lol", "LMFAO" etc
2. ignore your message
3. seeks too much attention, narcissistic
4. acting too cute with too much use in emoticons
5. acting too harsh with straight words that offend you in any ways

and so on....

What are the characteristics or traits of internet people that you dislike?

People that ignore me, but I do it to people all the time so I can't be too mad about it
I'm also someone who gets everyone's viewpoint and I'll listen to everything you have to say even if I don't agree
I dislike those who hate on others for having a different opinion
I'm jealous of anyone with a join date before me and higher post count

It is not really different with people in real life.. What I hate most when people wrote long things without substances in it ...
Quoting from Richard Feynman : "“– and pompous fools drive me up the wall. Ordinary fools are alright; you can talk to them and try to help them out. But pompous fools – guys who are fools and covering it all over and impressing people as to how wonderful they are with all this hocus pocus – THAT, I CANNOT STAND! An ordinary fool isn’t a faker; an honest fool is all right. But a dishonest fool is terrible!”

It's virtually the same online and offline:

Intolerance - Those who are hypercritical and judgmental of others' lifestyles and people different from them. Live and let live, and worry about yourself. I can't jibe with racists, homophobes/transphobes, sexists and other trash for obvious reasons.

Bloviating - A pet peeve of mine is when people talk about something they know little to nothing about, but act like they have PhDs on the matter. Mayne, know-it-alls are boring! It's okay to say "I don't know" y'know. Can't speak for others, but at least I won't think any less of you for saying it. It's worse on the internet 'cause you can fact check to see if what you're saying stands on solid ground. These kind also tend to have a hard time admitting when they're wrong.

Insecure - Those who lash out and project. I'm not your verbal doormat. Actually, no one is. If you think you suck there are more productive ways to make yourself suck less. Making others feel the same way you do is not the way though.

Stalking - This actually happened to me on the internet twice! If I told you either through my words or actions that I want nothing to do with you, you respect my decision and move on with your life. You do not try to message me or visit my blog and/or profiles every day! That's nuts!

People who think they're qualified to talk about complicated issues but can't even be bothered to do five minutes of research. It happens in real life (I've literally met people like this) but it happens a lot more on the internet. I hate having to do other people's googling for them.

Self-righteous assholes. Pseudo intellectuals. And those that take on the "otaku" and "weeaboo" personas a little too seriously, because "Anime is trash and so am I" is not meant to be taken literally.

Basically nitpicking to post this. :) I often see people start argument with a straight up offensive call out because the poster is also straight up mocking something down with insults, talk about being passionate in a wrong way.

Internet people who I dislike well there are couple of types:
- Trolls
- Passive Aggressive Aholes
- Haters - They just disagree with whatever you have to say regardless of the reason or logic and their opinion is always right.

It is obvious that "obscenity" is not a term capable of exact legal definition; in the practice of the courts, it means "anything that shocks the magistrate".

I find the following traits more sad than annoying:

- immature behavior

- not being able to communicate and to provide regular feedback right away if there are issues with me

- hiding things from me and/or not telling me about it if there is something that makes someone suddenly become much less responsive

I don't care at all if someone just doesn't reply to a forum thread or a particular conversation or if people with whom I haven't written for long eventually get tired of talking to me, since I'm used to having my conversations at one point or other stalled (mostly by the other side). However, it's down-heartening when people I thought of as being closer to and/or who I know for a bit longer, eventually end up in a state where I cannot reach them any longer, not even for simple inquiries.

Here are some that come to mind:

Those that don't/can't go beyond one liners when expressing their dislike for a show/genre but nevertheless feel the need to shoehorn it into every discussion.

Those that get defensive or worked up over the most trivial things and lash out on you fiercely.

Those that can't think outside left-right politics.

And lastly those who say "Bruh it's all subjective tho." whenever you don't add I think or In my opinion at the end of each of your fucking sentence. Yes obviously it is my opinion, because it's such a no-brainer that it's omitted. It's akin to someone saying "That was a damn good movie!". It is assumed that everyone knows about the subjectivity.

Someone just tried being and SJW in my topic and I blasted this guy
dunno if you can truly shit post a shitposter
I told him he can shitpost anytime though cause his favorites were sick
but he had nothing to say afterwards
If I make a topic, it's generally me trying to have genuine conversation
It's when I'm coming into your topic you should be worried

@noboru it's the worst feeling when you write a novel but people don't want to read it lol
I only know how to write novels or shoot a quick text
I almost always say more than needs to be said (saying this sentence and explaining it could have been omitted)
but I get it, I skip out on loads of big texts
humans are funny aren't they?

It's even worse when they're adults and doing this shit. It's so cringe-worthy.

Do you refer to writing longer postings or to writing a longer, fictional text? Also, do you differentiate between not getting any attention in general and getting attention from people, but not getting attention from the people you feel close to and/or wish to be closer?

Because to me it depends first on how important I see the text that I write and second, how important I see the target audience. If I write a completely irrelevant posting or story, then I don't mind even if someone I feel close to and wish to be closer doesn't read it. Same as when I do have a posting or a story that is important to me, but not the people, whom I would want to read it.

> buttlicks females in public to get on their good side (full of people like that on MAL)
> someone that judges MY entire personality out of a single post or chunk of text that they saw (i can judge others tho cus most tend to be just a copy paste npc characters for some reason)

and lastly

> cOpy paste npc characters
i feel like 90% of the people are the same person just copied and pasted all over the place and it's an npc, it talks the same way, it answers the same way, it thinks the same way

especially now that i'm leading a social discord and i'm doing almost daily recruitment for months and i got to see (thousands) of people , the most generic thing on reddit is
"Hello im a 2X female and i love horror movies" like holy shit , i swear every 3rd female in existence is like this

Generally I don't write fictional text unless it's a shitpost
if you see me posting blocks of texts, I genuinely want to discuss the topic at hand
I Could not care less who read it, I just want some traffic if I spend the time making that post
But I can't be upset because like I've said many times before
I'm known for picking and choosing who I talk to and completely ignoring everyone else
You get what you give right?
If I was on MAL longer I'm sure I'd have people I'd want to look and read at my post
Being fairly new I'm not going to hop on all my new friend's pages and be like hey look at my post LOL cause that's EXTREMELY obnoxious
I don't mind when people do this to me because I know they just want interaction, as do I. I just take different steps in doing so

Nope, this isn't true at all. Otherwise, there wouldn't be any one-sided feelings. Still, the more you give, the more likely someone will eventually reciprocate your feelings in full.

Your statement is more true than mine but there's still truth in mine!
That's how I feel with my friends IRL or any relationship I'm in, I'm always putting the most into it
That's how I feel, not actually the case cause my friends care about me just as much

I liked your whole post a whole lot man, But this was the point you made I really felt
I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees this and I've just recently joined the forums, little over a month now
I met a friend YESTERDAY and he was asking how to meet new people and make friends on this website and I straight up told him don't be a cookie cutter user on MAL cause I see the same person, different name all the time.
Have a little personality, do something different.
If you want people to talk to you, don't look like every other user on MAL
He's already on the right path though, he has a 4 number ranking system
That's what drew me in to talking with him

Confrontational people, pretty much. I've seen so many of them..

Like, you have someone who wrote a wall of text explaining their dislike of a series or whatever, but then you get some asshole who'd look through said person's list and find that the person rated School Days or whatever a 10.. like, dude, focus on the point, don't attack the dude just because he doesn't like your favorite series..

and then, it's usually just a lazy low effort one-liner vs paragraphs of explanation. There's also plenty of people who spam meme like they're real funny when someone post an opinion that is different from the norm, or seen as typically uncool.

I mainly meant that for instant messages since on profile comments, PMs (or DMs whatever you want to call it), and forum posts it's a different expectation of time for each.
