What's the most annoying thing you can find on a website?

One, Two, Middlesboogie · #1 07-12-2002, 07:02 AM

No, I'm not planning on doing anything evil on my site.

Just curious.

Majic · #2 07-12-2002, 07:43 AM

*crys* Its to hard to choose *sob* Its to hard to choose... Pop ups, coming soons(especialy when they never come, grrr), then broken links.

Gluk Schmuck · #3 07-12-2002, 07:44 AM

Pop-ups. No-right click comes a close second.

Sl'askia · #4 07-12-2002, 08:56 AM

Pop ups...definately pop ups...followed closely by broken links/pics and slow loading times.

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR · #5 07-12-2002, 10:16 AM

I know, you have to keep clicking and clicking to see the site! To get rid of the pop-ups that is.

***Alcar*** · #6 07-12-2002, 11:09 AM

Bad spelling/grammar. It's disgusting!

Why aren't cookies on this? You need to activate cookies to view this, after you view it you will attempt to delete it by clicking on the x. But it will come back and back and back. also, this site will soon be updated and broken links are crappy too!

I've never encountered that; I've only ever seen cookies as a good thing.

Here's another you neglected: unsolicitated audio.

One, Two, Middlesboogie · #10 07-12-2002, 05:00 PM

I thought of that as soon as I posted the poll.

Fazerina · #11 07-12-2002, 05:09 PM

All of those are annoying, yes, but nothing is as bad as pop-ups!

Danny · #12 07-12-2002, 09:01 PM

Out of that list, I chose Pop-ups.

However, the most annoying thing on any website ever is (dum dum dummm)...

GIRL FRIEND BOY!

Thank god all of the copies of his site appear to have been taken down...

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR · #13 07-12-2002, 10:11 PM

Oh and Middles, you for got....IF THE SITE IS NOT FINISHED!!

Okay, when I am doing some research paper, I go to google and find the title of the site with the details I need, I click on it and guess what, the site is either not there or finished or in a different language!

***Cloverfield*** · #14 07-12-2002, 11:09 PM

Pop-ups (automatic ones) are the worst thing a site can have. Whether they are relevant or just advertising ones... they are irritating... I just close them without bothering to look at them now days.

And worse than that are popups which make it difficult to close (i.e. greyed out X button or no buttons). And ones that keep going (i.e. close one, and 5 more open up).

Urg, I thought was getting over pop-ups, but this just brings the memory of them flooding back.

I'd like to vote for most of those things, but I guess if I had to choose one it would be slow loading times. Slow loading only occurs on my computer when I'm in an incredible hurry, which is something that doesn't put me in the best of moods.

Wolfpac · #16 07-13-2002, 08:40 AM

Well I voted slow loading times. It might not be annoying on some sites but on message boards, it's a killer.

But 404 Error -- File Not Found also really annoys me.

ZombieX · #17 07-13-2002, 03:01 PM

Mine weren't there.

Comic Sans. Any kind of advert, especially ones where you take control of a monkey to shoot things. disgusting colour schemes. all geocities sites. sites where when you've clicked a link it turns a foul colour. sites made using frontpage templates. porn sites that reconnect you to their own connection or put an icon on your desktop without asking.

The list goes on.

1. Agh! Comic Sans is EVIL!!!

2. That's never happened to me before. Have you clicked 'yes' when they ask you to install a component?

That's another thing. Websites that ask you to install something and websites that require a plug-in that nobody's heard of.

***Wil*** · #19 07-13-2002, 03:57 PM

Times New Roman, Comic Sans...

I never realised people got so annoyed with fonts. What's the big problem?

Oddsville · #20 07-13-2002, 04:17 PM

Well just like everyone else I'd have to say pop-ups, especialy when they take over your computer and start telling you to do things!

Gluk Schmuck · #21 07-13-2002, 05:47 PM

How can anyone find Times New Roman annoying? It's a great font.

Comic Sans is annoying because some idiots use it as the main font for websites, posters and such. It's acceptable to use it for titles but not for the main body because it is neither a serif or sans-serif font, which are the only legeble types of font.

Jacobsucks · #22 07-13-2002, 11:40 PM

I hate pop ups. there everywere!

Majic · #23 07-14-2002, 01:15 AM

You know MMA, I really thought you were going to say "Jacob, Intern Freaks, and Evil Gluks"

Edo · #24 07-14-2002, 04:15 AM

Pop-Ups are wrong. Their inherent foulery and annoyance by design will haunt me until the day I die.

Melvin:squeeking paramite · #25 07-14-2002, 08:38 PM

Broken links and red crosses. But only when you really want to see the picture/get to the site... It's just so annoying when you want to go somewhere and you can't...
