Okay, Jake has had his time to rant, (Quite a few, actually) now it's my turn.
These new members are really starting to annoy me. They're almost all clueless children that barely know how to work a computer, and they just barge into TBT expecting everyone to play ACCF with them and such. I know we all were new members at one time, but the members joining now? They're just horribly annoying. The thread bump count has skyrocketed, poor grammar increased, and they act like they've been here forever.
Exibit A: Bellbringergreen macrobumps a thread, then asks the mods to close it. It's not even his, and he had no right to bump that thread. The member that started the thread hasn't been on in months, and he's trying to resolve his problem.
Exibit B: ACGirl1 sends me a PM while I'm offline asking me to play ACCF with her. Firstoff, I'm offline and therefore obviously not able to play. My bio also clearly states that I don't play ACCF anymore. (I know no one reads them, but it's there and would make life easier for the people who don't play anymore if Junior members read them.) Plus, she used horrendous shorthand and terrible grammar, something that annoys me greatly. If you have a keyboard, type full words.
Exibit C would be an example of a huge bump, but I'm not going to bother. I'm tired and annoyed at all of these new members. I don't even know what I'm saying anymore, they just annoy me. Some are fine, but the normal JM annoys me so much. I was a JM only in November, and I still remember Bidoofus' kind words on my welcome thread...
The question is, does anyone agree/disagree/not care as much, etc?
Disclaimer: I don't intend to hurt anyone's feelings. This is what I have observed, and seems to be true in most cases. I don't speak for every new members, only most of them. Feel free to prove me wrong and leave the gate.

I do feel, however, that I wasn't a sterotypical junior member. I didn't PM and VM random members begging them to play ACCF when I still did, I stuck to the gate for ACCF where there were people who actually wanted to play. I made friends with all of the active members and became a very active, and I like to think, an important member to the site. Most new members bump a few threads, post about ACCF, then leave. And they have bad grammar. They annoy me. The end.Bidoof said:

I hate stereotypical Junior Members. They **ss me off. For example (not mentioning any names here......aww what the hell) lookyhooky, one Junior Member, has such poor grammar it makes me want to push them off a damn cliff! He says such irrelevant stuff and spams me saying crap like
I don't even play it much anymore, not with the excitement of AC:3DS. Oh and not to mention his constant thread bumping. He bumped one from 2008! It was some question saying "Can someone help me with hybrids?".
So whatever, rant done. But, for visual reference, here is me at the sight of all this bad grammar and constant spam from JMs.

Good then. I'm not alone in this. And Brad, I'm glad you liked Bidoofus. I'm happy with that one.
LPW2 is our safe haven from junior members. I like this group, I hope JM's don't ruin it.

It's been mainly Me, Brad, Callie, and Bidoofus, but you've slipped in seamlessly. I think you should, but I must check with the other members of the LPW2 council. Should Rover become one of us?
Also, when you post images, do you upload them through TBT? You keep posting tumbnails, and that's easily avoided by using the image tag.
