Yeah, I HATE when people do not reply to my emails in a timely fashion. That's a MAJOR no-no with me. Honestly, the more people keep dicking me around on responses and pushing me aside, the less likely I am to pitch stories on those companies when it comes time to suggest topics for the next issue of the magazine.

My BIGGEST pet peeve, however, is when phone numbers are not included on the contact page for every affiliate program there is.

People might be running their business out their living rooms and wearing their underwear while they're doing it, but the fact remains that it IS a business, and EVERYONE should have the ability to get through to you in order to do said business. That's just the responsibility you shoulder when you start a business. Anything less, to me, is just shady.
