In other words, what do you think irritates him the most?

Though all of the choices are definate pet-peeves for Ming (as far as I'm concerned) ... I had to vote for "Spam." After all, combating spam posts is a full-time job in it self!

I just thought it would be interesting to see what Ming has to say about it and what other posters think.

I voted Spam + Baiting a mod.
Just look at the whole shenanigan with Asher and UR. And look at how swiftly Asher was dealt with.

I voted for all of them, though #3 probably wouldn't be one of them. He doesn't seem to care about club threads either, or I haven't noticed.
For obvious reasons he has no beef against advertisements
