    Elitism irritates me. After switching from NA where I had 355 CP to EU where I am now a level 25 with no CP, it sucks to be told you can't run a random normal because you are 'bad level' as it was put. Or have the group randomly disbanded/kicked from group without a 'how do you do'. Was part of the reason I didn't do that when new players entered my groups through dungeon finder on NA.

    I understand it's inevitable as a low-level character, but it still grinds my gears.
    On my way to PC EU!

    If we get wiped in a dungeon and someone asks the questions

    - whats ur DPS
    - You have DPS meter installed
    - Whats your resistance, it ought to be 20k+
    - What ultimates

    And it is always funny that guy leaves (after a rage quit) and we invite a random with low CP and we finish the dungeon.

    Had a person like this recently...after he left we finished the vet with 3 with no further deaths

    I had this last night when pugging a vet dungeon, we kept dying at the last boss and the Tank was saying, "this boss should be easy at our CP", in a condescending way. He was correct to say so, but he was glibly ignoring the fact that his tanking 'skills' left a lot to be desired. I'd already run the dungeon twice with no issue that night to help lower level guildies get their pledge, then pugged it again a couple of a times later while I was checking out some of the new sets.

    Amazingly on all occasions sans dubious tank, we were through in 15 mins with no deaths.

    I would like to point at that so many of you replied on the Animation Canceling saying that it is a skill, and that I'm seriously gimping myself.. in my defense I would like to tell you guys that:

    https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en-GB/discussion/231468/a-desperate-plea-for-zos-please-remove-animation-cancelling

    that this post here pretty much explains everything i despise about it, especially in PVP fine use it all you like outside of Cyrodiil, but in PVP its a big X! as I said before that was my opinion! Mash all your buttons as you like, I don't like it and I won't use it, so much combat and beautiful animation just to be "canceled" out -_-

    No, there's absolutely nothing cool about it.

    People who call something an exploit as if they are the ones who get to define what is and what istn't
    (Very popular: animation cancelling)
    Sorry guys as long as Zenimax is ok with it, you may still not like it but it's not an exploit

    "Bruh", "bro", "mate" or "dude" in ANY sentence.

    Mate isn't so bad, but agree with the "Bruh" and "Bro". Maybe it's because I'm from the UK that "mate" doesn't bother me as we tend to say it on a regular basis in everyday situations. Like if you stop someone for directions or someone helps you in general we generally say "cheers, mate/pal" if it's aimed towards a guy.

    ^ This. ^

    Not least because probably half this community is female, not a 'bruh' or a 'bro' at all.

    UK here as well and I've occasionally used 'mate' as that is a more unisex term.

    People who leave an item in a node when they are harvesting. It is so annoying to find a lock pick or a single worm in a node keeping it from respawning. These people need to die in a fire.

    Lol that pisses me off too, specially when I open 10 drawers to find ten lockpicks.
    Just loot the bloody thing and delete them later.
