Probably the thing that bugs me the most is random people inviting you to join their team in the coop mission spots, without asking first
If I were looking for a group, I'd be advertising it. A little conversation before the act is all I ask Pet Peeves

Not this game specifically, but I hate it when I hear this:
"You mean girls play this game?"
I don't know why, but it really rubs me the wrong way.

What gets me is when a person in my party spams their target calling butan. By "spamming" I mean literally calling the same target ten times in a row.

My personal pet peeve is people who drop in the middle of a mission after they've died one time, because of their own stupidity. And because of their own short comings, they in turn punish the group by dropping when they're needed most. Nothing like a fair weather MMORPG Gamer....

It bothers me when people think the insult "gay" means "homosexual." The insult gay just means "crappy." It's slang.
I hate people who leave mid-way through Arena fights because they die. I've had one idiot leave after his death in the Ring of Fire arena, the one where you try to get more kills than the other team. He would've respawned in a few seconds.

As for getting killed I try to get back to the + numbers again. Trust me I have died many times, mainly when I share my healing skills for others.EDIT: I never new GAY means Crappy. I remember singing songs in grade school music class with "Happy and Gay" in the lyrics. Then as I got older it meant Homosexual....now....CRAPPY....I learned something new. Just wait til you "youngens" reach my age

Well, Gay literally means "happy" sort of...
And then it got associated with and accepted as a synonym homosexuality
then it was gradeschoolers immaturely (well, they're young) using the word gay as an insult, much like "homo!" or "fag!"
and it was eventually used so much that now its just a negative word in general.
person A: "Damnit, I forgot to do my homework and the teacher gave me an F"
person B: "That's totally gay, man"

Inept Wa/Mo thinks he's invincible and runs ahead...
Me: STOP!!!!
I draw a HUGE line at the point where we should stay back and a HUGE arrow pointing to where everyone is standing.
Wa/Mo fights and is starting to really die
The rest of the team goes
Me: STOP!!!!
Wa/Mo: OMFG RES ME!
Wa/Mo: OMFG RES ME!
Wa/Mo: OMFG RES ME!
Various curses from everyone
Everyone is dead and there's a ton of mobs on their bodies.
I leave because I'd die trying to res.
I get whispered and get called a n00b

That bothers me, as does the drawing incessantly and drawing obscene pictures. Something that bothers me about the game itself is that sometimes it seems to be balanced on the edge of a razor; there's not a huge distance between "rather easy and boring" and "impossibly hard and frustrating."

The term homophobic bothers me. Calling somebody afraid just because they don't like something (for whatever reason) is straight out of the kindergarten playground. Ridiculous.
NOTE: I do not fear, hate, like, or give a damn about gays, completely indifferent.

This can mean different things depending on the people using the terms:

Homophobia, from G. 'like' literally means "fear of the same," however the term "homo" as a reference to homosexuals was used in the creation of the word. It is a term which is interpreted differently by different people. The two main associated concepts are: 1. Prejudice against homosexuals or LGBT people in general. 2. fear of homosexuality (and possibly associated avoidance of exposure to homosexuals or related materials and situations). |

Gay: When used as an adjective not describing a person who is part of the gay community, (e.g. "that hat is so gay"), the term "gay" is purely pejorative and deeply offensive. The derogatory implication is that the object (or person) in question is inferior, weak, effeminate, or just stupid. This usage is common among young people who may not link the term to homosexuality, much as some people may not link the term "Jew down" (to be talked down in price) to Jewish people, or "I was gypped" (I was cheated) to Gypsies. Many people, including many who identify as homosexual, use the word in the pejorative sense and consider it unrelated to sexual orientation. The inherent homophobia or lack thereof which is ascribed to the word seems to vary greatly between individual small communities and social circles. It may also be used in a pejorative slang sense without merely pragmatic semantics to describe something that is considered overly bright, colourful and/or festive (esp. girlish). Other spellings, "ghey" and "ghei", are sometimes found on the Internet and are supposedly used either to insult without reference to homosexuality or to bypass chat room censors. |

hmm if this topic is about what annoys you most from GW, I'd say it's the inability to rejoin a group when your connection dropped. It's been bothering players since I could remember, yet no one knows if it'll ever be fixed.
Community wise, I hate greedy people. I was giving away runes for free, and said one sigil per person, yet some people kept on trying to trade me after giving them a free rune. Bleh!

My pet peeve is people who are generally jerks. That is, people who insult others in the party or accuse them of doing such things as stealing "their" items. Totally uncalled for and stupid.
