Most Annoying Twitter Habits

Recently I am finding Twitter to be more distracting than useful, and here are some of the things I see that are annoying throughout the day and jumble up the stream:

1) Asking for Re-Tweets of a Blog Post - If it is good, people will re-tweet, stop looking desperate

2) Re-Tweeting a Compliment from a Follower - How About Just Responding to that Person with a Thank You, No Need to Show Off to the World How Awesome You Are

3) Typing Out Sound Effects (Bang, Boom, Pow, Bam, etc.) on a Stock that Moves a Few Cents...Let's Keep the Celebrations for 10%+ Moves, Anything Less is Not Worth Cheering

4) Adding $ Symbol to a Ticker and Providing a Link to a Member-Only Area of a Website - Happens all the time although I though this was supposed to be banned

5) Responding with vague questions - As someone that may tweet 5 times in 2 hours, I need to know what tweet you are referencing in your question, no time to by a twitter sleuth

6) Twitter Muscles - Do Not Act All Tough Behind a Keyboard - Refrain from Saying Anything You Would Not Say Face to Face
