Pet peeves... The way the updates box still gets full and older updates get swiftly kicked out by new ones... Although I have to admit being able to look at worlds/submissions seperately has solved that somewhat ^^
I'm not too fussed about music players on worlds, as I usually have my myO page open in a seperate window so I can hear my playlist there...
I think theO is rather groovy actually ^^ you + your team are doing a fantabulous job!
Titles for posts (like mimminx same thing happens with me very often when I want to post)
And the backroom highlight, you know to let us know who updated, we could go back and forward and still have the ones who updated but we didn't checked yet still highlighted, it would make things so much easier and faster.
Unlike others, my pet peeve doesn't have to do with the comment box. =]
Is it possible for us to put music on our pages? I mean, on YouTube you can just put a music video or something but I'd rather an mp3 player from sites like imeem or esnips or even background music. Just that, when you visit a world, all you hear is silence. .____.
Oh, it would be fantastical if you can let us edit world layouts, like even more customized, not just changing out font/link colors or backgrounds but also changing our table colors and such. I'd also like to add more images to my site if that's possible. Of course some people might take advantage of that, but do what you can. ^^
I agree with the highlighting issue in the backroom. ^^ Once you've been in there once they're no longer highlighted, making it harder to keep track of which one's you've checked.
Also... we need more themes and colors to choose from. ._.
Comment box issue everyone's been bringing up, and titles for posts. I've grumbled more than a couple of times after writing a post, submitting it and being told I need to add a title.
i told you by august 12th i was going to achieve the level beyond otaku legend- BOSSMAN'S ELITE! bwahahahhahahahhahaha *taps fingers together evily*
Oh nice one Jae. Maybe you'll be demoted and achieve a new level below Otakuites called 'Otakuite Loser' ^^ Heheh, just kidding girly. Ya know I love ya :D
I think that the issue where the backroom shows everything as read when you've only actually read one link is an issue.
Also more generally, I'd love to see more flexibility with editing styles and stuff on Worlds - for instance, I'd love the ability to use even BB code in posts, so that I can link to outside images (and as many as I want).
Admittedly that could be abused, but I suppose anything can really.

OOO i just thought of one. everytime we visit out backroom it refreshes the update list and assumes we know about the new update so it unhighlights it. is it possible to unhighlight it after we've clicked on the link instead of just paying a quick visit to our backroom? that way we'll know what we have and haven't seen.
1) open up word pad and keep it to the side to write your comments then just cut and paste. that's what i do.
2) i'm positive you can add more then three pages to a fan comic. i haven't done it myself but i've seen it done.
3) if you get premium you get more. there's got to be some type of limit or it wont be special at all. as for the display thing, it takes up a lot of download time. possible just put the newer ones up and take off the older ones.
5) the html or... ahh i can't remember what you call the bracket format but it causes problems sometimes for the server and slows it down. plus if more is allowed i'll take advantage >D bwahahha <.< so will sess.. dont look at me
6) again, you'll get more if you subscribe. you're allowed up to 5 now but 11 (i think...or 7) if you've got premium.
7) jpg is the standard format for all pictures. it's not just this site. GIF allows motion and works different then a JPG. JPG is in pixles while GIF is .. what do they call it..lines i guess.
Biggest pet peeve......ace... lol jp
mmm i dont really think anything right now. ;D i told you by august 12th i was going to achieve the level beyond otaku legend- BOSSMAN'S ELITE! bwahahahhahahahhahaha *taps fingers together evily*
<.< i will do it! or else i'll come to your appartment and set german roaches loose! HA!
Well one of my pet peeves on here is copying and pasting the same comment into everyone's guestbook, dang that kills originality and annoys me to no ends. Sadly there's nothing you can really do to fix that. *Just letting out some frustration*
To the point, I hate how I come back after a couple of days and all my friends updated but I missed over half of them because there's a limit on the backroom update section thingy, so a subscription update archives would be nice.
yeah, the pet peeves like, the backroom saying I have a new comment when I was the one that just wrote it... that always throws me for a loop. The youtube videos showing over the comment box when commenting, yeah, that's one...
OH! I'd really like it if we could add background music to our Worlds! You go in and it's just so quiet. Wouldn't a nice selection of music add to the atmosphere? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't theO used to have a selection of anime-related songs for E-cards? Maybe if that list was issued and we could just choose from that rather than making a whole new HTML quality for some site... Bring back the old music files that I remember so well... ^_^
Actually, a couple irks come to mind immediately: The static comment box, the backroom listing every new thing as read when only one link is clicked on, being limited in the number of recent updates to see in the backroom, but the biggest personal annoyance to me would be Ad Links. Nothing makes my day like non-relevant spam ads that I have no control over being posted right next to my name on my Worlds.

I think the Wallpaper idea is good, just don't add those "quota" things where I have to submit stuff to download. The begs the heck out of me!
My biggest theO pet peeve is the comment box. Half the time, I don't remember what someone was saying while I'm typing, but I can't go and look without closing the comment box and losing all that I typed.

Not being able to move or minimize the comment box without losing what you're typing. If you're replying to a long post and needing to look back over it for reference when writing the comment, that's really annoying. Especially since the darkening effect it has on the rest of the page makes text unreadable on the darker World themes. I end up having to copy and paste from Notepad in those situations.

Well for one, I agree with Waffuru about how the youtube video goes over the comment box. It's annoying when you have to keep scrolling just to find a space to write. And then when you're done writing you're all the way at the bottom of the page >>
Dang it! There was actually something I wanted to tell you about, but I can't remember for the life of me what it was ._.
Guess it'll come back sooner or later >>

Ah! I just remembered what it was. Well, it's kind of a little thing, but isn't that what all pet peeves are? Anyway, I think it's weird how if you reply to someones comment on your post/fanart/etc your backroom tells you you have a new comment. Don't you think I'd already know that, since I'm the one who wrote it? :P
