Hunter has the nerve to not only admit he pulled but then goes on to say, "oh, I didn't realize you were so bad.".
Worst thing is that you cant kick them the first 15min, and the first 5 min really decides wether the run will be success or nabs running about flailing their ego's.
Plz blizz, remove the cooldown on /votekick.
But then i will never get good emblems! QQ!
Yea? Well grow up and act like your atleast 12...

A bit off-topic, but I did a random on my lowbie tank where someone ninjad, and we couldn't votekick because we had already kicked an AFK player. Luckily healer and tank can conspire to the demise of a ninja and then refuse to res.

Threads like this makes me proud i stoved all my tanking gear in the bank. I use my deep wounds prot specc, slap on a shield and a dps onehander...rest of the slots is my dps gear.
Why should dps have all the "fun" by posting dps meters, just aoeing everything and be complete asshats. And why should healers deserve the right to heal semi-afk, semi-awake. And then expect a tank to just babysit them through everything?
I say collectively STFU to all healers and dps, tank like i wanna tank, and own all dps meters.

I don't understand how having 535 defense qualifies as "babysitting". You can be in mostly blues and have that. That would be like saying "I don't know why you want all DPS to be over 1500 for H FoS, what you want? The DPS to babysit you?"

Having 535 defense is just one of the demands you put on me. I need a bizarre amount of health, i need to pull in a pace that keeps everyone happy, i need to correct every mistake any dps does, i need to compensate for dps failing at dps, while making sure healer can have a relaxed ride, being semi-afk pr0n-surfing (thats what healers usually do during their 5man runs). I need to spend hundreds/thousands of gold just to start tanking, while you can glide in unenchanted, green-quest-geared, all 71points in one tree.
And to top it off, if i actually would need a tanking upgrade from a 5man its a 100% chance that some ret-paladin with spiky hairdo, Jenkins title and bad attitude will steal it anyway.
Me having to focus and make an effort while you not having to do anything useful at all=babysitting.
again, i also wanna have fun in a 5man, like you can, thats why i refuse to meet your demands.
Fun to me is posting recount whenever im on top (99% of the time) and harassing everyone else for being below the tank. Im sick and tired of all lazy healers and aoe-spamming dpsers.

That's a lot of demands you think I put...
I expect you to have enough health for the encounter. Chances are,if we're in a heroic 5-man (barring PoS and HoR), if you're D-capped, you have enough health. So this doesn't matter (if you are defense capped, anyway).
If someone else is rolling against the tank on tank gear, that's called a ninja. It is not expected by the decent players that you roll against the retadin.
I expect the healer to be geared enough for his role and specced correctly. I expect the DPS to be geared enough for their role and specced correctly. I'm a bit more forgiving on healers and DPS, but I don't expect the tank to carry. I expect him to do his part.
The last part in your thread says it all. You want to flaunt your e-peen that you can out-DPS the tank and just basically be a jerk about it.
again, i also wanna have fun in a 5man, like you can, thats why i refuse to meet your demands.
Okay, then I won't heal, I'll just DPS. I have fun DPSing, so I'll queue as a healer when I'm really in my feral set and DPSing. I won't even spec Imp LoTP. And don't you dare demand that I heal, or that I put on caster gear.
THIS
is the problem. Tank is expected to tank, healer is expected to heal. If I stopped healing and just DPSed, you could get through most of the run but there will be times you take hits. I expect you to do the same. And by the way, getting to 535 defense isn't that big of a demand. But it's too much for some people I guess.
