    Violent porn. Sorry but it's not sexy.

    ISIS stuff. Sorry but I value a good nights sleep.

    RTE's player and website. Just because it is utterly rubbish.

    In this thread: People mostly complaining about things they don't personally like, so would like them removed for everyone else. Even though they can just ignore them.

    Spot on - frankly it's an attitude I'd gladly see the end of in general, not just limited to the Internet!

    But hey, as we're brandishing the ban hammer, why not play along :D:

    - The "fake!" brigade (anything they don't know or looks strange to them, must be fake and/or "CGI", like the Afghanistan 747 crash video from a while ago, or the Russian meteorite clips);
    - Moon hoax conspiracy theories;
    - Self-appointed "expert" videographers who can syndicate about pics/videos by the shadows only;
    - Religious nutjobs derailing random discussions;
    - Internet mob justice mentality (google "Cecil" for most recent example);
    - Duckface photos!

    Popups on Steams
    Video Ads that start randomly on popups.
    Any news site that has an Advert video before the actual video you want to watch. Drives me F$%KING BONKERS. And they always play the same ad on every video no matter how many video clips are on the page.
    I'm looking at you SKYNEWS/SKYSPORTS :mad: !!

    This "*I'm looking at you", as in commenting on some website meme shyte.

    Fcuking moronic shyte hawk behaviour.

    Annoys me a tad.

    That's like hating raisins, being given a bowl of muesli and being told to just ignore them. This stuff is ****ing everywhere. Very hard to ignore.

    It doesn't mean I want raisins removed from everyone's muesli, just that I'd prefer they weren't in mine.

    Tumblr and Twitter

    Remove these and all that is wrong with the internet will disappear.

    I miss the days when you received a modem with poor instructions and you had to figure it all out yourself. It was like an entrance exam for the Internet. There were less stupid people on it back in those days. Now any ninny can get on and post their vitriol via twitter or other social network.
    Go back to the earliest pages in AH, and read the threads.

    People talked some amount of shite back then on AH. It makes today's forum look like The British Academy, by comparison.

    Single mammies and their obsession with posting pictures of their sprog all day long, because they have f**k all else to do!

    People that post "Full Time Mad Bastard" under their work section of their page.

    Fish/duckface pouters.

    People that live near me in my estate that are so insecure about themselves they have to post these stupid pictures with phrases on them on Facebook "Don't judge me....blah...blah..blah" I will instantly hit unfollow!

    Game requests

    Football status updates

    X-Factor status updates "It's a fix, f**k you Louis Walsh"......Please f**k off!

    What they didn't do though was keep closing their a/cs. Looking at that first page all of users are still here - probably in a nursing home drinking gruel through a straw - but still here.
