I have very low expectations of lowbie pugs. Still, I hold some standards: if I queue as a healer, I have caster gear on and will try to heal you. If I queue as a tank, I will have tanking gear on and will try to tank for you. Now, my standards for other tanks at least lower to “not in caster gear trying to tank” but apparently this is just too much for some people.
I was on my wee little 39 druid, trying to get her up to 40. She both heals and tanks, but my rogue has my DPS/tanky heirlooms, so I was only signing up to heal. I zone into DM, and I target the other tank. It’s a druid. I wait for bear form.
Nothing.
They pull with roots and randomly moonfire at shit. The trash dies without too much paim, but still, I speak up: “Um?”
“lol were trying this thing”
“where we dont need other people” (so you queue’d up with other people because WHY?)
So we decided to scroll up in the D&D table chat and see how far it went. Well…in fact, the table goes all the way up to the FIRST TIME WE LOADED THE TABLE. Apparently when we were first exploring the awesomeness that is the official Wizards table, this is what we had to say:
orithea(Loranys Songsteel): ********* GUYS THERE’S A GIANT FINGER ATTACKING US
Obsidian_Dragon(Kevara): ********* that *********!
Obsidian_Dragon(Kevara): *********!
Achloryn(Lazan Silvershaper): *********

Obsidian_Dragon(Kevara): Strange.
You didn’t think I was done blogging, did you? Oh no. Not by a long shot. I have entirely too much to say to fall silent now, my dears. Just instead of a World of Warcraft blog, you now have a…a random ass shit blog of nerdery and things. Yes.
So, I hope you enjoy. I’m sure there’ll be flowcharts. There must always be flowcharts.
