Here is a list of the pet peeves that go along with the
Internet and
anime. These are _the_ most annoying things that I have to
face
daily, so I thought I'd whine about it on my own page. -_-;;
1)Thieves. There are so many dishonest people on the Internet!
They
steal graphics and promote them as their own. They
shamelessly take the credit
for other people's hard work without
so much as a text link to acknowledge those
people. They even
steal the html right off of people's pages, and take the
praise
without a second thought! I personally hate thieves. By stealing
someone else's work, you basically declare to the world that
you weren't
competent enough to come up with something on your
own.
2)Useless Sites. If you were to pick any search engine or large
link
list (such as the Anime Web Turnpike,
which is an
excellent site), you would find that roughly half of those pages
are completely useless. They have the same old stats, the same
old info, none
of their own opinions in there, and the same old
pictures on everyone else's
page. They seem to put no personality
or effort into their page, and when you
see one of these useless sites,
you raise an eyebrow and note how sad it is.
And trust me: you
know a useless site when you see one. It gets so old.
3)Low Self Esteem I was recently looking at a search engine where
people
submit their own sites and write a description of their page. I
was reading
things like,
"not much yet" and "I'm not too good at this, so
don't get your
hopes up." Do these people honestly think
that people want to see a small
home page that has "not much
yet?" If these people don't give their sites a
little more credit, no one
else will either.
4)Overly High Self esteem I know, the exact opposite of my
last pet
peeve, but there's a big gap in the middle for
people to be in. Picture this,
if you will. You're considering entering
a site. The title is "My wicked
cool kick @$$ Sailor Moon Page." Still
wanna enter? If your page title claims
to be the "best ever," no
one is going to believe it unless they see it. So
if you don't have an
awesome site, don't call it "My awesome site."
Wow, I can't believe you made it this far down the page. I expected
you to jet
outta here and go back!
heh...Well, that's all I have to whine
about right now, but I'm sure there will be much more to come later. In
the meantime...
[Fun]
