That's part of why I really like my class and my school. It just doesn't feel like school. We're all there because we want to learn and the fact that for the most part the 10 of us get along well together just makes it so much more fun to go to school.
I also really like how the teachers aren't really in front of the class telling people what to do but much more in between and helping us where we need it. From what I've heard, the teachers need to be playing teacher a lot more for the other two classes while they can leave us alone for a day and we'll still be doing stuff we need to do.

Chiming in from the other side of the lectern: it isn't so much that they are morons, it is more like talking to someone who is color blind. A friend of mine is a highly qualified analytical chemist; he can tell me exactly which part of the spectrum he can't see, he just can't see it.

Bun-Bun is 23, I'm ... well Daniel is a few years older. There are times that it can be a bit odd, but usually no more so than any other set of differences one encounters in relationships.

Nah. Half Your Age Plus Seven rule. That's 29 for me, which sounds about right.

Same here, with the caveat that they can't be high school friends of either of my sisters because that would also be creepy.

Aethien has sisters?

Pics or it didn't happen.

The heart chonies or the one in pink? Either way.... they should take a tour of America *nods*

Outside of Vashj'ir people do not have to worry about navigating a third dimension while playing, excluding flying around. This is one of the biggest complaints about said instance (that and the final boss is fought on a mount but that leads down a different discussion). This can prove to be a rather big problem for those that have not experienced it before or have trouble with dealing with a third plane. Hence why people either like or hate Vashj'ir, rarely in between.

Oh and due to my grammar **** going nuts I have to say the following.

1. because != cuz
2. Stick to either spelling a number out or use the number itself.
3. I love ellipses as much as the next guy but if used too much it will take away from the
intended use

Now if you will excuse me I am going to lay back down. -grumble-

When I was 20-young and naive- a 45 year old man whom I met through community theater and considered a friend, guilted me into dating him for two months. I didn't have the self confidence at the time to realize that if he would have stopped being my friend because I refused to date him, he wasn't worth having as a friend. Since that experience, I've had a strict rule of not dating anyone more than 10 years older than me. So far I've yet to have an issue with that. However, I do think that it might be possible to meet someone who was older than that, and that I would want to date. Age really is just a number. I think it's better to take each person as an individual instead of following some arbitrary rule. A friend of mine who is also poly, is in her late twenties and one of the men she's with is in his early sixties. He's old enough to be her dad and they work great together as a couple. He's not creepy at all, he's actually a very fascinating person, and as far as I know all his other lovers are much closer to his own age.

Is it that hard to target the same thing as the tank?
Is it that hard to keep pets on the appropriate target?
Why is Hunter's mark on a seperate target, and not the one marked with a skull?
Is it that hard to wait for all the targets to be marked before Sapping/hexing/trapping/sheeping?
Is it that hard for DK's to make sure not to drop AoE right next to CC'd targets?


I just thought I'd add a couple. The fact is, this is WoW. It's not Final Fantasy, Aeon, DCUO, EQ, etc. WoW is it's own animal in itself, and yes it has loads of teamwork issues. When I played Final Fantasy 11, I didn't run into nearly as many teamwork issues aside from Samurais intentionally turning themselves into mana-sponges. I'd assume that there were not nearly as many teamwork issues because you're actually forced to use teamwork throughout the game. WoW makes it possible for players to level to 85 without ever joining a party. The downside is that people can get through WoW without ever using or learning about the concept of teamwork. The upside being that you can still level up while playing for thirty minutes a day and enjoying RL (which is impossible in Final Fantasy 11).

The real question is, "How do you get these guys to learn to think about working as part of a team, and playing as part of a unit?" When they're too lazy to read forums, or blinded with pride when asking others for advice, what do you do? Yelling at them, and telling them that they suck while in a heroic or regular dungeon doesn't work. So aside from more knowledgeable players actually taking time on every run to coach these people, how do we get them to learn? It's the only way I think you can lower the amount of retards you find on a daily basis.

(Sorry for the long epic rant)

Ehat was I reolying yo?

For many players, yes.

I'd like to join the "Blizz dumbed down the game so any idiot can reach top level" bandwagon in my reply but the reality is that there were sped 60s even back in vanilla.

I blame two things for most of this, albeit, both are really the same.

1) Peeps are hitting 85, getting their heroic GS and then thinking that the heroics are going to be the same facerolls that the normal and LK heroics used to be - most folks simply can't remember that back when we started doing LK heroics we had the same problems and worse (since LFG had no GS requirement).

2) Peeps have been running heroics on properly geared mains and are forgetting that their alts are not 10m raid geared and that they have to actually play smart - I admit to being guilty of that with my tankadin on occasion (342 GS vs my bear that's 352), although not being a window licker, I correct the behavior after the first close call/wipe.

Sadly, if someone else in the party is the idiot then it's either boot or suffer.

FTFY.
