The 10 Most Annoying
Habits
10...or 11...or 12 annoying habits to avoid |
Usagi: Hey!
Rei:
- or an enemy that's really mean, or ... bad HTML. Yes. I can't stand it.
When people overuse MIDIs, put bad background images on their pages, make
blinking text .... argh. I usually leave a page. So, if you want to avoid
having people get annoyed at your page, keep in mind these 10 most annoying (well, IMHO)
things to have on your page:
Usagi-star: Thank you very much, Rei-chan, for that very helpful list of -
- When the background image is really bright and doesn't let you read the text very well. Gosh, that just ruins the whole page. How can you enjoy something you can't read?! I don't understand why people do this. Really.
- When the design was given no thought whatosever, I don't enjoy the content as much. I'm sorry, I know that sounds shallow, but design is important to me - this is the web, after all, and webpages are there to look nice too. If EVERYONE had a page like Hitoshi Doi's, the web would be totally boring! {No offense, Hitoshi Doi! ^_^}
- Plagiarism. I already explained this in Usagi's help section; DON'T DO IT. It's just dumb.
- Those silly MIDIs in the background. Usually I can't turn them off without totally rebooting the computer! Argh!!
- Frequent misspellings, grammar errors, and general rambling makes your page less appealing.
- When the person writing has either 1) A really bad, "my page is a wate of time" attitude or 2) an overblown ego, especially when the page isn't great.
- Award systems that don't mean anything are terribly irritating. Don't give awards to just anyone. What's the point, then?
- A site with all the usual features: profiles, attack lists, image galleries, multimedia, etc etc etc.
- Sloppy HTML is yucky, too. When you put random paragraphs in, and smush all your coding together, it's a big mess. Also, if you don't close certain tags, things can go very wrong.
- If you're going to write on the DiC version, use the names "Serena", "Amy," "Raye," etc. Don't write Usagi or Usagi/Serena. Mixing the original and the DiC version is a bad idea, it gets on a lot of people's nerves.
Rei: And make sure there's no blinking text on your page! And also, don't put those stupid messages in the alert bars! And don't overuse Javascript!
Usagi-star: I think that will be quite enough, Rei-chan! Um, arigatou! {Thank you!}
Rei: Hey wait! Make sure you don't overuse headings! And - hey! What are you doing?!
