Bask in your glory then, for you have succeeded.
If only I could believe you though...
I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

And on a side note:

1. People who don't even attempt to use the search function or try to find information on their own first (the spoon-feeding thing).
2. People who do nothing but antagonize others.
Those are the big ones. There are others, probably, but these are the ones that come to mind right now.

Re: What gets your Goat on the forums?
Oh...one really big thing that gets under my skin....probably faster than anything else....
...is when some folks make off-the-wall wild-assed assumptions about the staff's reasons or motivations behind some of the decisions we make or actions we take around here. Stuff comes out of left-field that has absolutely no basis in reality, but is spoken as if it is some sort of absolute truth. When the integrity of the staff is openly questioned for no other reason than because someone doesn't like something we said or did....  Yeah....that'll get me revved up.

Re: What gets your Goat on the forums?
Heh,
Somedays nothing, somedays everything.
It seems to be tied in some mysterious way to my whisky/sleep quotient. 
Like almost everyone else I asked all the noob questions and argued with the responses so I try really hard not to let that one get to me.
Sometimes the way something has been worded in a persons post can cause me to rain down terrible celtic curses on their ancestors haircuts but at that point I try to take a break before actually trying to post anything.
I find it cuts down the number of rewrites. 
Misunderstanding someone, or being misunderstood, is probably the most frustrating thing I find about forums in general though.

come on you know its always been staff vs members around here, we all know that you just go around and delete and re-write post so when we go back and read it everything looks in your favor.

Re: What gets your Goat on the forums?
Goat-stealers get my goats.
Get your own stupid goats. -_-;;;
No but seriously. Rudeness, I guess mostly, but I try not to let anything really bother me. It's online, it's impersonal, posts have no tone (imagine if they did!) so lots of things can generally be misinterpreted. -shrug- Life's too short to always dwell on negative things and being negative to other people. I'd rather spend time doing other more worthwhile things.
Watch and wait; a hapless creature has wandered in wake of my growing hunger. My oh my, don't you look tasty? Hey traveler, what do you know of wolves?
All that's scaly and reptilian, all that's furry and mammalian, all that swims in the sea, all that flies in the sky--I love each and every one of these precious creatures.
