Blind invites.
On a serious note....these are probably my #1 and 2 also.

What really gets me is that my BM armor is actually on par with Rakata and I still get treated like dirt. I'll never get to play any of the new OPs.

What grinds my gears is when developers name things, knowing how gamers like to abbreviate everything to an acronym. I don't even know what "BM armor" stands for, but I sure do know what it doesn't stand for...

I saw the title of this post and before i read it I thought. I wonder if this is going to be something where I go, Wow, I thought I was the only one...nope. Never occurred to me to be upset about something like that. In fact it irritates me more when people get upset over things like that. I mean really dude, that bothers you? 2 seconds you have to wait and your gears get ground?

You probably get upset if you are the last person at the table to be handed a menu. You probably think that the waitress has something against you for handing them out left to right instead of right to left. You pay attention to what hand she uses to write down the order and when you see she is right handed, you feel like that is some sort of confirmation. It would be unnatural for her to hand out from left to right if she is right handed. She definitely has something against you. So you decide at the end of the meal your going to pocket the tip just to get even with her. Yeah that is probably the kind of thing you would do.
Anything that is done repetitively can be done by a computer. That is why right brained people will eventually rule the world.

You must be a tank character because what REALLY Grinds my gears as a healer is when those tanks refuse to stop for the 3-5 secs it takes to top off their health between battles.

Quit being in such a damn rush!
In regards to lessening F2P and Preferred restrictions
In GAMING, as in LIFE,
You get what you pay for
No game restriction is so dire that $15.00/month will not eliminate it

Playing in a warzone and dying then for whatever reason not being able to rez and then getting kicked out of the warzone. What a waste.

These two absolutely.

Also people asking me to help them and then refusing to tell me what I'm supposed to be helping them with. Instead they just expect me to follow them around wherever when I have my own stuff to do. >_>

Sometimes life can be SO sweet!
I've got one even better.

In Ord Mantell I believe it was, on the island (heroic), soloing it for fun. It was a tough fight at the time, liked the challenge, good training. I'm hitting the boss, I see a guy coming in to my right.

I know what he's after.

I let my comp hold agro, grab the chest, then run, force run, hit my comp to passive....he spawns next to me. I drop out of combat, turn around and surprise....the boss is attacking the thief....and he dies.

Hehe. It gets better....

He respawns, forgets to get distance, comes out of stealth and the boss one hits him down.

So two deaths. I could have saved him...but I just stood and watched.

Now THAT was sweet. BOY did I get some nasty but tasty whispers.
