See these things complained about so I made a poll on these. Might not have covered all of them. But pretty much what people come to the forums to complain or brag about.

    People can get annoying. They can get downright toxic. But the only -real- thing that gets my blood up, is equipment not working how and when it should be. Lag, game breaking bugs, and generally anything that forces me to troubleshoot after work, rather than decompress.

    Well these thread topics tend to come up here in General Discussion in some form or another. So I went ahead and added most of them to the poll
    Forgot to add bugs but oh well. Can't edit the poll options once thread is released.

    I think guild bank robbers because I assume that they got bank access through “being friendly” and whatnot, therefore completely destroying the guild owner’s trust. Scammers are a close second.

    I voted exploiters but I would personally add Exploiters, Cheaters/Scammers and Bots into the same kind of area.

    I remember when I got into MMO game (15 years ago or something) and it was agreed in most communities that any kind of cheating, exploiting or botting was bad and should be stoop up against.
    However now we're in a weird time where people cheat and others will defend them because it's the fault of the games developer for not foreseeing the bug. It makes me a angry and sad that it's what the gaming community is like now.

    I’d say lag, with cheaters and scammers as a close second. Lag is by far the most infuriating thing regarding this game.

    I am happy bots no longer zone chat spam. What I like about Elder Scrolls Online is they fixed this problem alltogether. Even though the delete limit can be annoying when wanting to open up a character slot. Having it in place keeps the bot spammers out and also really harmed their gathering abilties.

    The delete limited was added because of the cold harbour rewards issue, where gold selling groups (or players) could make multiple characters, do a quest then delete and restart multiple times for very good gold income.
    Botting is still very rampant in ESO if you know which zones to look in, whilst I do believe ZOS follows up on reports it's still not seemly enough to keep them out of the game or even slow them down. Worse are the players who buy gold and continue to give these people reasons to bot within the game.

    it was the right choice and I'm glad they did it and it really fixed alot of the problem driving the spammers out. Not sure how it is on console version it might have gold spammers. But as far as I know they don't advertise in Pc NA not since the delete limit was added. Which is a very good thing :):( hope consoles did not (Opps forgot the not) have to go through that mess pc did before the delete limit.

    Cheaters and scammers are very different. I would have put exploiters/cheaters in the same area. Scammers don't actually bother me, despite losing 350k out of a meta item (just before it became meta) Its scummy, but its preventable.

    Needs an All of the Above option and it STILL wouldn't cover all my grievances with this game.

    The blatant imbalances among classes/race
    The glitches that litter every nook and cranny
    The idiots that outright REFUSE to do mechanics correctly, despite always getting killed by said mechanic

    I don't get angry with games or forums, and none of these issues has affected me personally, although I can understand that lag in particular is a major concern for those that do suffer from it. My vote would go to the missing option "None of the above".

    I don't actually have lag myself, but I read how so many are crippled by it, especially in Cyro.

    For some reason the devs decided (as with so many other really stupid decisions, imo) to not give people an option to turn off spell effects, which would cut lag TREMENDOUSLY!

    Even if you turn down all the graphics we are able to making everything look like guar guano, those spell effects are still crystal clear (OK, art dept, we get it, they are very pretty, now can we turn them off for trials and pvp PLS?!?).

    The devs are idiotic in many of their choices, but this has to be the worst of the lot.

    Also bugs. So many bugs. Even a beta test has less bugs. I had to reload ui twice in DS2 last night because it stopped working. then i have to wait like 20-30 seconds for the UI to reload, missed almost an entire boss fight because of it.
