At my school last year I ran a little side business where I would professionally jailbreak peoples iDevices. I would send there device back to them in a little case, with an instruction booklet I made referencing some useful tips and web sites. Then some ass hole comes along and claims he knows EVERYTHING about jailbreaking. He even tries to over throw my business. What he would do is swap peoples phones for fake Chinese replicas and sell the real ones. And because of this not only did he get in trouble, no one bought from me anymore.

 

Bottom-line: Assholes who think they know everything

Those "gaming" keyboards, mice, and cases that do no intent to help a gamer. The word "gamer" should be banned, unless it's really used for gaming and is reputable.

People who buy a gaming computer but don't game or do anything intensive on it. It kills me.

When people who know nothing bout pcs go and spend $2000-3000 just for gaming

I only play maybe 2 or 3 hours of games every week, and 80% of that is Hearthstone.

 

I'm sorry.

Headphone jack on the right side of laptops. It's not like 90% of people use their mouse on the right side or anything.

A really big pet peeve that I am having lately that is specific to this forum is the amount of misinformation that is being spread.  Its hard enough as it is helping people who have their own misconceptions, but when you add in other forum members who spout BS, it makes the job even more difficult.

 

That and people coming to the forum and asking for help to a simple question that could be found with a minimal amount of effort, usually found on the first page of Google.  At least meet me half way and have some semblance of an idea of what you are talking about, dealing with.  I am fed up with the people asking to be spoon fed.  -"Will an X61 fit in a H440?" -"Google"
