Thunderpuss, if I was you, I´d find another guild.
One thing I don´t get is that some people take WoW so seriously. Of course you don´t wanna ruin other peoples game experience and so you wanna do your best, improve your own playing and listen to others if they have something to say. But complaining, accusing and attacking other people who DON`T have an attitude problem is something I don´t tolerate.
The worst kind of players are the ones who´ve played together with a friend or two for a long time. If there is a problem in a dungeon, it is always everybody elses fault. The friends support each other and think they are perfect. I hate that kinda ego stuff that prevents people from observing situations objectively.

I´ve made the decision never to heal pugs again. The healers role is the most ungrateful in a pug. Tanks pull like maniacs and DPS overaggro and the poor healer tries to heal and when someone dies, the healer takes the blame.
Pug DPS can afford mistakes - for example, not paying attention, even not casting/attacking at all. Pug Healer cannot. And every mistake sure will be pointed out by the others.

Healing Pugs...what can I say....make sure you at least know the tank is skilled and well geared. If dps overaggros, tell them that you'll stop healing them and then do it (remind them how much less thier dps will be if they are dead).
I couldn't say my worst heal ever b/c I've had at least a dozen pugs that turned out terrible...yet my best was also a pug...

I hate pugs too... I even tried HOL hc with a so-called tank. while killing trash it turned out that he is a arms specced:))) lol i was blaming myself at every group of mobs:)
and I also hate Nexus hc! with my priest I couldnt complete nexus yet:( there always been a tragedy, especally on
Grand Magus Telestra
:) dunno why but i never managed my group from wiping:( I am a holy priest with this
talent
with a 1986 sp and 200mp5 in combat also 984int.
in encounter even tank loses aggro or I generate too much threat:( or even when some mage does hilarious job and dies... really my worst situation is managing super-dpsing fire mage and a tank in a group:( maybe i should watch a few videos on nexus hc healing:S
for me gundurak hc is much more easier then nexus hc, dont you think?

I have had a few not so cool moments over the time. One time in Nexus HC I ran with 3 ppl in plate and they all took turn being tanks without being tank specced. It is so much fun to heal through that. Amazingly, we only wiped once.
Another time in Nexus HC I was there as dps in my healing spec. On the boss that is only there in HC I told them to pull back because he fears. No one listened and we pulled the next mobs as well. Our two real dps died rather fast so we spent close to 10 minutes with 2 healers and 1 tank before the boss finally died.
In another instance I was hit by a silence and tank was taking a lot of hate. He began to scream for healing which I couldn't give him. I don't think he understood the word "silence" because I had to write it 3-4 times before he would shut up.
All of these were pugs.
A good pug was in UK HC. We did it in less than 30 min and i managed to do more than 300K dmg even though I began after the first boss. I could heal the tank with renew so I was more or less free to dps. That was my best run ever :)

"Let's do the undying achievement, starting with the Construct wing."
3 Seconds into the fight the tanks die. After 5 wipes with resets on Patchwork we gave up. Mind you this was not a PUG, but a guild run, all decked in T7.
Healers are so completely useless! Also they keep rolling on MY spirit gear. MINE MINE MINE!

I used to help my roomate get a pug for kara all time together. We got VERY good at picking great groups that never wiped. Funny, the easiest way to get well geared people is by putting gear requirements on, the well geared people see that and know it won't be a waste of thier time and weekly "badge run." Too bad I can't do that anymore.

hehe so I just had my experience today! (yay)
Logging in, my friend asked me to join a raid of the 4 horde cities, so I happily did. Silvermoon went down first quite easily, then we went Thunder Bluff. Just after exiting the lift (stuffing a raid in a single lift haha), I got disconnected from the server. My connection in mass PVP sometimes does this so I wasn't too worried.
However, when I attempted to login again, these fateful words popped up: "You have run out of pre-paid time." HAHA. the bad point of buying prepaid time :< (But then again, this could happen to any class, just that I incidentally happened to be a healer)
In specific bad healer moments, I think I (sort of) hate it when I'm the only party-member to die. Although I gain martyr status for sustaining everyone with my pretty angel thing, it kinda sucks to be the only one who died (Misery loves company). Even worse would be if no one else can Res :<

.. What? I specifically remember putting PoM on the tank in heroic Nax right before sarth, he ran in with everyone behind him, pom hit and crit, and sarth turned to me and cleaved everyone.
:o
Now when I PoM before a big pull, I fade as the tank runs in.
That has got to be one of the funniest things I've read on here. Thanks for the tip, I'll keep the fade thing in mind.

I don't really have any problems with healing unless its those people that go. "Hey, our healers not bad, lets go aggro three rooms" -wipe- "WTF? Why'd we die?" Or even worse,
I
am the only one to die because i'm saving all their asses.
Why do we sacrifice ourselves to save a noob group? I do the same thing...but WHY...?
