Moral
As Ford Prefect's nutritional analogy once went - "I'm deficient in moral fibre."
I've seen far too many people who seem to follow this. A couple of examples : I use wikipedia lots. There is a hoard of fascinating information there for anyone to access and add to if you happen to be a particular experts on the eating habits of the mayfly, for example. But I recently read that people are now purposely putting false information there, though I never saw an example of this until the other day.
What is the point? Is there some satisfaction in annoying people you don't know who've never done anything to you? All it does is piss people off, give those people who aren't total assholes extra work, and possibly have a greater effect because people are using inaccurate facts.
More than this, I am pissed off by anyone who cheats in games. Cheating against the computer - fine. The only people to suffer are the military/aliens/rebels/mutants invading your planet/city/research lab. And who cares what they think?
However, cheating in online games is just pathetic. It gives you a rank/level/victory that you don't in any way deserve, it proves that you must really SUCK to have to resort to such a pathetic thing, and it ruins the game for everyone else.
And yes, because I uploaded this one today, there will come a second entry later which is actually TODAY'S entry, as long as my USELESS INTERNET holds up.
Also, since Shitrag was just an easy way out of having to come up with a worthwhile topic one day a week, it is now gone. Vanished. Lost in the ether...

The people who put false info into Wikipedia must come from the same moral cesspool as those who write computer viruses. I cheer every time I hear of one being found and prosecuted. It's sad, really. What does it mean when you gain satisfaction simply from causing pain and inconvenience for others.
Hadn't thought about computer viruses, but they go in that category too.
Chavs do that too. The whole "let's shout brainless insults at people we don't know because it makes us feel big" is incredibly annoying.
I'm impressed with your site, very nice graphics!
