People who ask for advice and never acknowledge they saw the posts giving them the information they need.

Peepul who can't speel.

The type of post that annoys me is the one where the poster asks a question about for instance where he can get a kit of an armoured car. Someone replies and tells him about the Italeri Staghound. No, he says, I meant Armoured cars from the twenties. Another poster tells him about the Roden Rolls Royce A/C. No, he says, I meant in 1/72scale. Someone tells him about a 1/72 scale Rolls Royce. No he says I want a Polish Armoured car in 1/72 scale. Someone knows where he can get an Austin-Putilov armoured car in 1/72 scale. No, I don't mean that Polish armoured car I mean the Polish Samochod pancerny wz.28 (model 1928) armoured car in 1/72.
Well maybe if he'd thought about the question a bit before posting and didn't assume we were mind readers, he'd get a quicker answer

Shameful eBay plug for....

Armor/Armor

Hi Matthew. From what I have seen more people in this country , butcher up the language than not. It would be great if everyone learned it correctly and used good spelling and grammer but not everyone has the same education or can remember all the rules. As for me, I don't use such terms as I aint got none. I can get by, but I probably will not get a A in English. For me to have this ,or say someones bad math skills as a peeve would be a waste of energy. The one thing on these posts that I think is strange , but not really a peeve, is that question of where can I get figures to ride in say any particular vehicle? Any common soldier wearing a standard uniform can ride in just about anything going. Anyone who ever served in the military knows this. Take care......Al

People who don;t know how to use punctuation particularly this little cunning dot thing called a full stop or the little tadpoley, things called, commas or apostrophe's

Of course, It also bothers me when someone clicks 'Reply & Quote' on a post with 37 pictures that I've already gone through and then just says "cool".

You know what annoys me are people who worry so much about peepul who can't speeel. This is the same person who is so critical of others because they are not one hundred percent perfect as he thinks that he is. If it isn't the spelling ,then the next thing would be some overdone criticism about a figure or some other less than perfect thing to complain about.

The one thing that really gets me going is when somebody asks a simple question concerning how to fix a particular kit and is bombarded by posts either telling them to scrap the kit and buy XYZ kit, or pay two or three times the original kit price for the Nth degree P.E. upgrade kit from ABC. This bugs me for two reasons. The original poster might now feel they are unable to make a decent model from the material they have, and new posters on the board automatically assume they have to buy all this extra stuff even before they have even gotten the basics down.

PS, Dave I have had that spell checker on my computer for ages and I love it. It only takes a moment to double check yourself on spelling.

"Hey, I just got a couple of Staghound's!"

I see this kind of thing on billboards, newspapers, and magazines...I don't know why it bothers me so much, but for some reason, it does. I mean, if you're not a native English-speaker, I have no problem with it...I can't tell you how many times I wrote "If" when I meant "Yes" in Spanish class! (One little tilde can make a world of difference!) But honestly, if you grew up in an dominantly English-speaking country, and was taught English grammar, you'd think after 12 years you'd know something as simple as when to use an apostrophe and when not to!
