Things You Don't Like About Mibba.

I'm quite dissapointed that we don't have seperate Avatars for Forums and Profiles. I enjoyed having a writing identity as well as forum indentity..

When people think 'incorrect grammar' is just an umbrella term for every single linguistic mistake.

-ditto-

And on top of that, when someone tells someone that they're using incorrect spelling/grammar, and go and spell "grammar" as "grammer".

:roll:

That's like, a total epic fail right there.

I find people tell me off for bad spelling because I'm English and type "mum" not "mom"

Really? That's just plain stupid... different places have different spelling, slang terms, etc. And obviously the majority of Mibba isn't all in one region, so... yeah.

And words like 'curb' and 'kerb' and 'favourite.' It's pretty obvious that they're english/american by how they spell. I have also had horrible story comments, saying I can't write etc because people don't understand some British phrases.
Well sorry I'm from Britain, and thats where my story is set. :file:

It's rediculous, I just wish some people would think before they are so quick to criticise.

^ Me too. In nearly every story I've written I've had someone commenting on how I spell 'kerb' or 'colour' and it's just so irritating.

It bugs me the way that people get really uptight about rules,and fight them every inch of the way.

It really gets to me because the rules on this site are pretty simple, and make sense. They're not stupid and unnecessary, so why do people complain about it? :|

When people claim you twice in a row in rts or story/review, when they've always reviewed/rated what you post.

The fact that after a certain amount of posts, you get the label "Fanfic Fanatic". Some people are not into fanfics, me being one of them. :grr:

^Hmm...I hadn't even thought of that, but now that you mention it, I agree. It is a bit unfair to those who don't write (or read or even like) fanfiction.

BUT, really, something like this could be said for ALL the ranks:

Cliche catastrophe? Doesn't sound very good at all.

Student Shakespeare? What if I don't even like Shakespeare or prose.

Ghostwriter? Maybe I enjoy actually getting credit for the word I've done.

I think they're all just silly little writer sayings. They don't really mean anything and they're not meant to be taken literally.

I was so desperate to get away from the Writer's Block rank. :XD
I've been a Fanfic Fanatic for God knows how long.

I'm trying so hard to get away from Writer's Block. >.<
I don't much care for the ranks...

But correct me if I'm wrong: Once you submit an article you can come up with your own ranking, right?

^^ That is correct. :)

diagon alley.:

When people go on and on about how they hate the 'comment rape' that guys get, and then as soon as a guy joins there's about twenty comments that are just 'watch out for the comment rape! Hi, I'm whoever. How are you?'
It just seems silly that they're contributing to the mass of comments.

That annoys the hell out of me. Hypocrites.

The extreme strictness of stories.
And it's worse if you have a good reason. A story all in lowercase, for example.

Yes, but the custom rank only lasts for a week or two, I believe. I'm always 'Jackielicious!' (:XD) after I submit news, but two weeks afterward I go back to being 'Fanfic Fanatic ' until I submit something new.

When people post in threads where you list mibbians, and they go "The people above me" its really annoying, and almost as if they're doing it so you see their theme, and say you like theirs.
