My biggest one is the opposite of yours, Sinn.
When server owners, board admins, or forum staff think that just because they have a little flag set on their account... they can treat anyone and everyone on the board like crap. You see it right in the forum rules, most places: we will do whatever the hell we want, and if you don't like that you can shove it.
Deezelpope's gripe is similar. It's where the members think they can treat other members like crap, usually because Joe has been here longer than Bob, or Amy has a higher post count than Sarah, or Jeff knows the admin so you'd better not make him mad.
Members are the board, full-stop. Without members, you don't have squat. A little basic respect and common decency goes a long way. I've always paid attention to that, and it really hacks me off when people at other boards don't seem to care.
