cleared almost everything in BC and EVERYTHING in lich king and i have never once not one time seen a wipe that was the fault of the DPS'ers
Two possibilities
A) You're lying.
B) You are blind and cannot see your constant wiping.
Considering its very unlikely that you cleared most content while unable to see your monitor, I'm going to guess you're lying. Nice troll account.
Additional lols follow:
LF2M Heroic <Whatever>, need Tank and Heals!" is seen so much because !@#$ty tanks and &*!@ty heals are way easier to find than ^&*!ty DPS
lol. LoL. LOL! I laughed pretty hard, good one.
wow its looks like someone is jealous, clearing content isnt hard, find a guild, i like how you call me a forum troll when your account name is Themediator, do this next time you want to quote me why dont you say something that backs up your point, instead of ohh lol look at me write dumb @#$% cuz i cant clear through content, so im gonna blame my dps.

I'll just say it's pretty annoying to be asked if I'm def capped (dk tank), but than you get there, and come out second on dps meter on boss (not clearing) - and I don't do beyond 1400 dps ever while tanking.
So are those people below me, excluding healer, are not dps? if they are dps can they be above tank please on boss?
Why not have 4 tanks and a healer run, if dps isn't worried about putting out damage. Should they even be called "dps"? Should they maybe be called 'slacker'? Let them only roll on slacker gear than, no dps gear for you.
And really same is expected from a healer. They get asked: what's your +healing?
How often does dps get asked: are you hit capped? can you do at least 1500 dps? do you know to hit skull instead of aoe in beginning of the pull?
And the dps that runs around without crafted epic gear available to them, that gets to me as well. It's just money, and usually it's not a lot. You could buy mats, have guildie craft them for you, or pay someone 20g to craft it, or whatever. Or just buy it off AH. If the weapons of DPS can be crafted, they better be ... otherwise I'm just under opinion that I'm carrying them through instance.
I can understand having an alt and not spending too much money on him. But a person who knows how to play will be above 1500 in greens/blues. It's just when dps is like 1100, that's when I look at gear, and see that there has been no investment in rotation or gear, the person is just there filling a spot, possibly rolling on offspec-gear I could use. The person is a slacker - not dps, but they get first dibs on dps gear, I don't get it.

WARNING: WALL OF TEXT
In my point of view, everyone should roll a tanker or healer toon before going to a dps one. If you do that, you'll learn (by experience) what dps should
not
do.
Every
dps class have ways to help their party by other means that not doing damage. But they usually forget it. This can probably lacks your rank on the dps race, but it will make the job easier. And i'm not talkin about the tanker job or the healer job. I'm tankin about the party job, going through the instance.
My first main was a paladin. Leveled
holy
from 10 to 58,
prot
from 58 to 70. Ret? Never did it. Goin all that way (
its a long way when you almost only get exp doing instances since you cant quest at all
) gave me almost all the tips about what a dps should
not
do. Like "if you arent the tanker, youre not suposed to pull", "follow the kill order", "careful no to aggro adds" and "if youre tanking damage, DO NOT run! call for help and wait for the tanker to grab it from you. Running makes the tanker job harder and increase the chances of a wipe", and a lot of other things.
Today my main is a 71 enhancement shaman, so yes, i'm a dps.
Anyone that hitted 70 before the WotlK cames out is by default
way better
geared than those who doesnt. And you know why?
Simple. For the ones that dont pvp (and thats my case), your main source of gear improvment are instances and heroics. Back then, everyone did the regular instances for reputation and to get better gear. By the time they're revered/honored, the gear was almost good enough to the heroics. Which are WAY harder than anything in Wotlk as long as i've heard.
But today you just
cant
find groups for OL instances. Ok ok you can, but its just too hard, and normally just for Ramps/BF and SP/UB.
You cant gear up enough.
OL Heroics? most of new players dont even know that those are avaliable.
You step your little foot in northrend and all your blues (if any) are quest rewards, and thats sucks a lot. Thats the case of my shaman, that do an average 900~1000 dps on UK (recount is counting trash also, dunno if this matter for the case). Although i can put like 1300 in the lvl 70 dummy, it isnt the same thing.
For the ones at 80 that complains "wtf 1500? i used to do that when i was 70! L2P please". 'Course you did! You were blue/epic all the way! My holy pally is kinda well geared at a raid level, but my shaman didnt got that chance.
But yeah, the dps level is very low in northrend. While i do my almost1k dps, there are a lot of people out there doing like 400~700. It fells good to be the top dps, but when you look at those low numbers...
Being the #1 dps on northrend is like running in the... well, you know the rest.
