I am guessing everybody has a couple.... What are yours?
I do not like the overwhelming Inbox messages From friends who just posted a new story. Are you aware that Lush alrrady provides this service When you subscribe to follow an author? Personally, I keep up with my friends who post new stories. If you need to tell your friends that you posted a new story, Then they aren't really good friends.... A good friend will already know!

I only have one. People who continue to friend request you or ask you to open a chat window. NO MEANS NO! I will decline politely but after that i will steadily get cross.
Did you think people only follow authors on their friends list?
I don't.
If they are my friend, I fully expect them to PM me a note telling me about their latest story. (I like mine with links attached cause I'm lazy like that )
I follow other authors because they aren't on my friends list. Sometimes, I'll send a friend request or vice versa and they become my friend.
But I really don't sweat the small stuff either way. It's only a PM and I can delete it easily.
Takes all of 2 seconds. Try it. Go on... you know ya wanna.
friend requests from out of the blue. no hellos, no explanation on how or why they want to add you to their list. but there's always the delete button, so no biggie.
Quote by jacobport Lush hypocrites! !! Those who post pictures and ask for commentS...... yet never post a comment on other people's pictures!
Maybe I'm missing something here...a lot of times I see someones profile and look at their pictures and would like to make a comment. I can't because I'm NOT a friend. I'm not here to collect friends and put notches on the proverbial bedpost...but I would like to be able to make a comment w/o having to go through the whole "friend" process.
Maybe a Moderator could answer my query....?? Either here or send me a PM.

That also is a peeve of mine! That is 1 that should go on the forum that Gav has...." what additions or enhancement would you like to see on lush"

one thing at a time... so... another 40 years will do it, i'm guessing?
Wait wait wait a minute hold the train!!! Ok i hear so often about us men having to leave the seat down but do any of you women ever offer to put the seat up for us men? :P
as far as pet peeves, i think my only one is just (although in my own experiences rather limited) lack of respect for others in general. Like in a chat room talking to someone with a little respect isnt too hard and though i havent had the problem myself it doesnt affect me any less to see it happen to someone else. We are all adults (arent we? :P ) and its not really a hard concept.

Maybe the people who choose to make their profile wall public are fine with strangers reading it, but not with making comments on it.
So there would have to a double option: profile wall public, public comments allowed; profile wall public, only friends' comments allowed.
One of my pet peeves about Lush is that without it, I'd have even less of a life than I have now.

Quote by sprite when the guys leave the toilet seat up!
I have an all black set of clothes, stocking cap, gloves and blacken my face like a cat burglar and I sneak into women's homes at night just to raise their toilet seat while they are sleeping.
If I sneak into your house Sprite I promise to leave a chocolate mint and a rose.
Instant messages from randoms who without introduction just start talking dirty. If they cant be polite and introduce themselves and at least tell you there interests then they wont last long before there gone usually with a block.
Another thing is, When you get inundated with pictures in a general chat room. If you want to show pics keep it in a side chat room.
Unfortunately because of the large porn ads I can't read Lush at work anymore. When work is slow I've loved pulling up Lush and reading some stories. I can't do that anymore and I only get to read a fraction of the stories I used to.
perhaps you'd consider lush gold membership?
as for me, tabbed windows, resized viewing & fonts, & quick scrolling let me hide the ads somewhat from workmates

Being asked to cyber. Being addressed by any pet name by strangers. I also hate when people PM me about something I post in the forums. Leave that shit in the forums. I hate when I reject someone for cyber or a private chat and they ask why. I hate friend requests that say, "You seem hot. Would love to naughty chat with you some time." I hate redundant/obvious forum questions. But most of all, I hate seeing mods be disrespected for doing their jobs. Whether it's in a chat room or anywhere else, rules are rules. They're doing you a favor by pointing them out to you.
I wish people would write their thread titles properly, with correct spellings and capitals, and stuff. I don't mind so much about the first post, but get the fizzin' title correct!

Sorry about that maybe friend request can ease the hate?
For the rest, I guess I am sending good vibe, people are not coming up with that shit to me
