When I get too trigger-happy with the F5 key, especially when I'm looking right freaking at whatever I'm refreshing for when I hit that key. D'oh! Though I do also find it kind of funny, in a weird way, how I can continue to do that as frequently as I do. X3

Also general drama, I suppose, although that's more of a "invokes my pity and/or amusement" thing than a "grinds my gears" thing.

I do that ALL THE TIME, Sike. It drives me insane. I've missed so many mystery eggs because of that in the Dream World, and it's the reason for my second lost summon.

@Shudders: That has been one of my pet peeves on the site since I joined. Same with the wrong berries stuff. When I first started, I thought the wrong berry gave negative experience and happiness because of how much people complained about it.

Lol ditto to this. I do that a lot. It's especially easy when you've been stalking for a half hr or more. You don't even notice when what you're looking for finally pops up despite looking dead at it.

I refreshed over a Groudon in the lab once. Made me sadface because that and Primal Dialga are the last ones I need to complete my collection of summons. Ffff

When it's foggy.

I also don't like how high the exploration requirements are. I'm a really new player and it's discouraging to see I need SO MANY dex entries to do an exploration. Achievements, interactions, no problem. But dex entries are something I can only really get a limited number a day so...:\ It just seems high to me. I don't think that makes me lazy.

Given how new you are I can understand how it may seem daunting upon first look. I think once you get into the swing of things a little more you'll be on your way.

Dex entries were the hardest part for me, too. I had a lot of trouble getting mine because I hate hatching and evolving things I don't like - I prefer shiny hunts. Finding a goal to work towards makes it a bit easier, though. I got a lot of my dex entries when I decided I wanted to finish the second gen dex so I could try to get a Silver Wing. Then I got Ditto, so I did my best to finish Kanto Master. But I agree, 300 dex entries seems like a LOT, especially when you're just starting to fill your dex.

Glad I'm not the only one who does that. It's especially funny when you scan the shelter, press F5, then see that egg right there when the refresh is about to load. I've had to press the red X to stop reloading just to get the egg. works surprisingly well.

Also, there are times when you zone out so much that you start clicking the big coartoony eggs on the shelter background. please tell me I'm not the only one who did that.

-Complains about the requirements for explorations.
I understand they can be a little too high for someone new, but otherwise I think if someone doesn't have the requirements, that person could have troubles finishing the exploration...

-People sending me PMs asking me to breed something for them.
If they were my friends, maybe I wouldn't mind and would do it, but someone I don't know asking me that out of the blue is not something I enjoy.

-Complains about how they got something they didn't want.
You got something and though you don't have to be happy if it's not what you wanted, at least don't complain about it with people who did want it.

-Shelter lag and lab lag.
I can deal with lag while clicking because I end just reading something in the meantime, but when I'm trying to get something, even if it's something common and I know I have good chances of getting it, having to wait for almost a minute annoys me to no end.

-Having to release my level 100 spares because I don't have room anymore ;O;
Yesterday I couldn't even take out the pokemon that was on the vs.seeker and I don't know how I'll manage in the next site wide shiny hunt ._.

@Bluity: I think I've done that a couple times when I was really tired or distracted, if that's any consolation. xD

Oh...the F5 (or Command+R for me) trigger happiness XD yeah. VERY prone to it. I'm just too impatient.

-People who complain about one-clickers. Its a win-win situation if you click back. Free points and a chance they'll click you full party. Not to mention that the Open X amount of Tabs doesn't stop at the last full party before X.

-When I am avidly searching for something and refresh over it. One time I did it like nine times.

-People who want lower requirements for Explorations and Tasks. Having to get 300 Dex entries really is not that hard. Same goes for having to give a Wild Pokémon a specific berry 100 times.

-People who don't like features that they don't/can't use. I've got a friend who doesn't like the Mobile site because he can't use it.

-People who complain about error messages. There is absolutely nothing that can be done.

-People who complain about the weather. Same reason as above.

When someone adds me to their Palpad, and then quits. I look at those names going 'Who where they?'

That and people asking you to drop spare novelties and legends. I mean, man, I'll drop them when I want to drop them!

...am I the only one who finds it amusing how many people in this thread are complaining about other people complaining? XD

But thank you guys for being nice. And you're right, I know I'll get that 300 dex entries eventually if I keep at it. TBH it's probably the fact I've been shiny hunting that's slowing me down from getting new pokemon. XD

I guess I was just worried I'd miss my window of oppertunity for an exploration, but it seems like the same ones are available again later. So by the next time I might be able to do it.

To stay on topic...people that overreact to things. O.o A couple of the responses for those who got nothing from the drawing are really over the top. I didn't get anything either, but you know what? It was just luck, so I'm going to move on and do other things on the site.

SO. MANY. TIMES.




Nnnnoooope, I've done it too. "ARG, WHY WON'T IT GIVE ME THIS EG-........oh."




Lord almighty, I know people can complain, but just looking at that thread was terrible.

Error messages, and when someone claims the pokémon I want from the shelter pages just as I click on it, but thats normal. Nothing really aggravates me about the site, except the fact that I spend more time here than I should.

No, it doesn't. I was talking more about the people who aren't new, and aren't that far from getting what they need, but choose to complain anyway.

Now, you know what makes me really, really mad? When people accuse mass clickers of having no life. Not only is it rude and hurtful, but it's incorrect. I and a lot of other mass clickers have work or school.

I generally assume that mass clickers have a bit more time than others, maybe, but what's important is that they have the right TOOLS. I could technically be a mass clicker myself (and I HAVE no life, trust me), but my computer is way too old to handle this site fast enough to be anywhere close to that.
