I didn't find in the poll the thing that annoys me the most... the failure to put a decent description in the title. I use this site **heavily** to search for answers and it's frustrating when there aren't any decent key words in the title.

<snip...>
use strict;
my ($response, $title);

if ( $title eq 'Help!' || 
     $title eq 'I get an error' || 
     $title eq 'Homework' || 
     $title eq 'Can you look at this' 
   )
   { $response = 'GRRRRRRRR'; 
   }
