Stop! Grammar time!
Alot = a lot, eg. "I play alot of AB" should be "I play a lot of AB".
There/they're = their and vice versa, eg. "Their/there getting beat" should be "They're (as in 'they are') getting beat".
To = too and vice versa, eg. "I do to much work." should be "I do too much work".
Should/would/could of = should've, eg. "They should of won" should be "They should've won".
Then = than, eg. "x is greater then y" should be "x is greater than y".
Apostrophes (') denote possessive nouns and some pronouns, not plurals.
Yeah, I'm a grammar and spelling nazi.

It is very annoying to get reported for leeching just because your map isn't loaded. It happens more than people think; but luckily I think ANet can check that and determine that you weren't actually leeching, but loading.
i hate that one too. its why i cant do ta. i really wanted to try it out once of twice but i know i lag to slow.
That's for missions. Explorable areas, like if you're running to a dungeon and enter, and then go back out to get the quest (if it's right by the door), that's fine but not everyone connects at lightning speed. Don't just grab the quest and zone back in; wait for everyone else to say they have the quest. And don't zone back out of the dungeon to grab the quest after entering it until everyone's connected or you just lose them. Sheesh.
God this one i hate the worse then scammers. not everyone has a super duper computer to let you load in at a speed of light. give us time to get quest and load into a dungeon. you will get your money faster if you just wait for us.

Your mother would be ashamed of you, a lot is a parcel of land for sale.

Lol "alot" isn't a word in the english language.
A lot is correct,
Even if it does have two meanings.
Anyways,
Biggest pet peeve: Grinders that think they are better than everyone else.
Yes we all see your FoW armor and chaos gloves, grats.
(Side note: Am I the only one that thinks FoW armor is the most common armor in the game? Just I have never seen so much of any set ANYWHERE, ironic that the "rarest" is actually the most common.)

Another thing. People with character names from other video games. For example, 'Epic Warrier Arthas,' 'Tirion The Palidin,' and similarly misspelled names. (Intentional misspellings, by the way.)
...Actually, make that anyone with a misspelled name. It's 'warrior', not 'warior'/'worrier'. If the name's taken, you should make up another one rather than creating 'Bob The Munk' or 'Spirit Spammar Lol.'
...And another thing! Naru-tards in Shing Jea asking for 50g for storage and 'promising to pay back.'
...Aaaaand another th-... Okay, I'm done for now.
Note that I didn't actually say any specific video game title. *Cough*

One cannot know the true, agonizing pain of this until one has been in Ascalon City and see "Legolas of Aragnoth" run by...
I swear, I almost ragequit at that point.

Actually, I like that! It's like an in-game event or something (like Wintersday or Halloween). People are just excited and happy!

- Players that spam down the chat with the same "WTS/WTB" line over and over again in towns.
- Players that run away when they are low on health (I'm mostly melee class).
- Mesmers in TA/RA (Good work to them of course, but its annoying me xD)
- Arrogant "I've played all professions, so obviously I'm very good at this game" type of people..
- RR-Day raising all the prizes to the sky.

It's a detail with the graphics really. I really wish there was an option in the F11 panel that allowed us to turn on high res textures for other players' armors.
I know, I know. It would probably kill a low end machine but that's why it should be a check box. Particularly some of the older Elite armors look grainy and ugly in the low res mode.
Anyway, it's a minor detail and I try not to let it get to me. Other than that I don't really have any gripes with the game itself.
Sure, I'm sick of account buyers and their spams (and how it's impossible to use /report on them because they're gone by the time I type in their name.) and rude people etc, but that's not the game's fault and I do have an ignore list for hard cases.

This has been something I've wanted for a very long time as well, i totally agree with you. The game does display the high rez version in instances, just not in outposts.
Anyway, my biggest pet peeve as of late it the "Cannot Attack (Monster Only)." thing that blocks you from attacking npc's in JQ as soon as the other team takes the asset. I don't know if it was intentional by anet or not, but it needs to be removed. I die literally every single round I play in JQ because of this.
