Post some of your pet peeves when you're rping. I would ask to only post ONE peeve at a time PER POST, and allow someone else to post one before you post again. I'll repeat myself, don't post twice in a row please! 
Don't make stuff up. I know that nobody is actually going to check this but I'd like to ask for succinct accounts that are real and have happened to you.
Oh yeah, another thing. No mentioning usernames. Let's keep people's privacy.
I'll start.
That feeling when...
you write a 7-para rp post and someone replies with a 4 line paragraph. Just ONE.

someone tries to pull a psychically impossible attack to try to win a fight.

The character your RPing with gets in a fight with another character and does a bunch of auto hits

You talk ooc to someone about a plot, then you send them a starter and THEY NEVER RESPOND EVER AGAIN.

another person godmodds your character into an impossible to escape prison and you cant do anything to further the plot. Nothing. Your just trapped.

Wait that happened?
Yep. It was the worst cause I was just like: Really? Is this a thing? And it was a thing and I wanted to shoot something. I ended up dropping the RP.))

That feeling when you end up not being able to snuggle Vanhelsing-chan/kun's characters!

This. So much this.
People should at least say if they've changed their mind. Specially if it's like an 8 paragraph starter with a lot of time and thought put into it. Sort of thing happens way more often than it should.
I dunno if mine counts as an RP peeve but...
That feeling when you put so much time and effort into a prompt, including artwork, background story and floor plans / deck plans / city layouts... and nobody is interested in it.
That feeling when....
Someone has you making story plots almost every day because they don’t want to do the plot before, and then completely disregards the plot you had created to turn it into repetitive smut.
It was just the same thing again and again and whenever I brought up “Hey I don’t want to do smut” the person yelled and cursed at me. My characters were also godmodded so much that they weren’t my characters anymore.

I use to get that on Facebook when someone asked for an RP. They would like it and never reply. I ask if they did and they would chock up excuses.
One of my peeves were in the day before I came here was when someone would play favourites games and pretty much snatch your friends or try to play the "look at me! Look what I can do!" game.

Awww. That's messed up that somebody did that crap.
That feeling when...
Someone volunteers to be a co-GM or at least a very critical plot point/kingpin character in a group rp and then they vanish on you, leaving you unable to continue said plot that was brainstormed on so hard

The feeling when...
You write several paragraphs worth a story, spell checked for several hours, editing, making sure everything is perfect.
And you get a single sloppy paragraph in response...
I'm sorry if this ones comes off rude but I've had this one happen to me more times then I can count... Feel free to remove..

Checking an RP that hasn't replied in a while only to realize that the character you were messaging at has been deleted.

You realize you are unable to snuggle the great Navkat and shower her with gifts everyday.

You see an rp you haven't replied to in a while and have a midlife crisis debating on whether to reply or not.
Edit:
YES! Oh my god... This happened to me and a few other friends of mine irl who also enjoy to rp. We all get together every two days and describe what kinda rps we've done, how much we've written total, and how much our partner(s) post in response. EVERY MEETING there is at least two cases of this happening. We give the person a chance, sure but... If they squander it by not posting anything else, we drop it entirely.
Now, I'm not perfect, I did a few of the things on this list, I'll admit that, but I've matured and can own up to my mistakes. Someone asks me to write more; I'll try my best! Even if I'm on my phone, ill write paragraphs. But when someone repays my hard work, which I'll usually plan out in drafts (which is why I take do long to post most of the time) with a few sentences, I get a bit angry.
Now, I'm not pointing any fingers at anyone... But please try your best... And Maldo... I know your pain...

When you have 2 characters that are awesome. Great storyline and it fizzles out. Before it even had a chance to be a incredible roleplay.

This one gets me pretty often. Ugh. Especially when you realize that someone can't write English very well.

Someone wants to redo their post or asks you to redo your post like every few posts or so.
