Well... That encompasses most of the complaints I could have come up with (and it's ordered in a way that aesthetically pleases me, but that's beside the point).
I would have to add to point #4 though. People using abbreviations incorrectly are just annoying in general. In fact, the slang used in this game has gotten so ridiculous that I personally opt out of ever using it.
Someone killing monsters on my map? "I'd appreciate it if you'd stop doing that."
Joining a party for any reason? "Joining a party, I'm a level [lvl] [job]."
Looking to get a price check? "Hey, anyone happen to know the value of [item]?"
Trying to sell/advertise something to guild/alliance mates? "Anyone here want to buy a/an [item]?"
Incidentally, my lack of abbreviations and slang seems to be more effective at getting people to actually read what I'm saying and listen. It's gotten a number of would be KSers (I still use that abbreviation, it's just too convenient) to apologize and leave.
Also, one thing that seriously bugs me is that my Jaguar still expands my Wild Hunter's hit box to fill up almost my entire screen when I'm mounting and un-mounting. I've died several times in Aswan and other locations because I'd try to mount and then start buffing, only to realize I'd been hit 5 times by the monsters below me during the animation.
