What is your current list of Amateur Radio pet peves?

My biggest one is operators not returning digital QSLs.

In this day and age, there is no excuse!  Most if not all digital log books
automatically upload the contact to most of the QSL services.  QRZ, LoTW, etc.

Now if you live out in the middle of nowhere, or some such place I understand,
however having non returned logged contacts in the US, Europe, Japan, Korea,
etc..   There is no excuse!

Second on this list are operators who only do one service but not the others. 
Come on, I uderstand we all have preferences but in the grand scheme of
things, we are supporting each other.  Not uploading to QRZ because you "Have
to support the ARRL", is fine and dandy from your persepctive, but what about
the rest of us?
