I have to tell this joyour story of wonderment because it made me so happy. I'm in Blood Furance with a PUG, an alright team with a Level 70 Rogue. Being Level 70 this guy decided he was a mighty aod who owened us all, he would constantly insist of getting another player to show his damage-meter and brag about he was on top, when someone wanted to go afk he would bellow "NO AFK, you afk i leave", even more annoying for me as a healer he would jump from group to group leaving barely a moment to regain mana.
I endured this colossal jackass for a while until we got to a chest - we all rolled for it and I won, I went over and grabbed my loot (some green and a few health potions). I got a whisper from our Rogue asking if he could have them - I said that I needed them and he replied "yeah right". It was the straw that broke the Moonkin's back and I broke out with a tirade of "Just because you're level 70 doesn't mean you have liscence to be a complete dick and make ridiculous demands of us"
At this point we're a few pulls behind the final boss and our Rogue announces to the party that he's leaving because I've been mean to him. I laugh at his childishness and the rest of the group agrees he's a numbnuts. Our mage asks if we can carry on without him as Roguey walks to the exit - I suggest it'll be easy and we carry on.
One minute into the next pull I notice that our good friend the Rogue has come crawling back, humilated and joined us in the fight. I can't resist a "Changed your mind?" jab at him but the guy doesn't respond. He stays completely silent for the rest of the instance. My god it felt so good.
"YOU NEED ME!"
"No we don't. Alright, next mob"
"Oh shit they don't need me. Fuck."
He wanted to be there to roll on loot.
I woulda booted him from the group before looting.
Killing twinks a few lvl's higher than me in BG's, man I get a kick out that shit. "HA HA HA you spent all that gold on twinking yourself out and I still killed you!" I love it!
I also remember guarding one of the flags, and having someone asking in chat about how I was doing it. I was confused. Until one of The Beasts pointed out that I was on top of the damage charts, and *way* above the second person.
Playing a hunter is so much higher on the 'instant gratification' scale than most other classes. Pet on auto-attack, constantly run away, scroll through all your shots...hey, all those guys are dead!
The best part was he didn't even roll on the awesome Rogue loot that dropped at the end. I was so sure he was going to try and pull some ninja shit, but nothing.
Other nice things! Friendly and smart alliance players: I was stuck in that Fel Orc village in Hellfire with all the nasty skeletons and shit with a few other players including an Alliance mage, everything seems fine, the mage is friendly enough and nobody's interested in fighting each other so things go swimmingly.
Eventually I aggro more than I can handle and there's a horrible army of Orcs and skeletons pounding on me - I'm in deep shit. Just as I resign myself to a fate of -10% Durability I see Magey McMagerson running towards me.
Seconds before my death at the hands of all those NPCs he hurls a Fireblast at me, killing me outright. Because it was considered a PvP death I get no durability loss. When I rush back and ressurect the guy throws a Polymorph on me letting me heal to full health without having to waste and mana or food. I get a friendly /wink and he goes off on his way.

That is really funny, I personally might have thought he was trying for the free HK but hey he had to deal with the mobs after you died so maybe not. It is kinda funny too.
this might sound old for you guys..not that it's too happy or something..but anyway, here it goes..you've all heard about leeroy right?? i think it was the funniest thing i've ever saw..well at least not before it happened to me..this guy was so dumb he completely wasted all the time spent planning. and to think he's my friend IRL. I now know what those Leeroy's group felt that time. which every once in a while makes me laugh!!

Thats my most favoritest thing in the whole wide world... the oomkin that is.
Oomkins need a new ability. When they /dance with a mob, it stops whatever it's doing, and is compelled to start dancing, no matter what, until the oomkin stops dancing with it.

It'd certinly be a viable form of CC for the Oomkins.
Yeah, that got me in the mood to kill shit. I hopped on WoW to do a bit of shopping/quest finishing before I went to bed.
After I cleaned up a couple of quest, I figured, fuck, I need an offhand sword, since the AH seems to be made up of purely Main hands pre-35. Oh hey look Deadmines dropps some pretty good one-handers, might as well see if I can unlock that.
Oh, well, seems like I don't need to unlock shit, so, I just join up with a random group.
Surprisingly, this group is fairly kick ass Priest, Pally main tank, Nelf Hunter(NOOO!!! Actually, he was the best player in the group, go figure!), Lock, And me, Nelf Rogue. We kick ass, and take names. We wipe in that stupid furnace area because of adds, but, after that, it was smooth as silk. However, there was a couple of oddities.
First of all, the MT was a dumbass. I mean, he was good at running into mobs and having them attack him. All of us could hold our on pretty well, and the priest was fairly beastly, so, we didn't have to worry about his ineptitude too much, however, he was just a dumbass. He wanted EVERYTHING, so, he rolled on EVERYTHING. And all he wanted to do was NPC EVERYTHING. He was also couldnt understand the concept of Bind on Pickup. He rolled need on a BLUE STAFF. SO HE COULD NPC IT...More on him later.
So, Anyways, all through the instance, I only want 1 of 2 things. Either the Theif's blade, or the Cruel Barb(HAH!). I am hoping through the ENTIRE instance I get the T blade. I roll on NOTHING, save for a pattern one of my alts can use.(Since I'm geared up past that place at level 22). We get to the first mate. Blade dosen't drop. Le sigh. Ah well, at least were almost done.
Hey look there's Van Cleef raperaperapeOMFGAGAHGLJQHLJAHSLKJAHSLKJAHS CRUEL BARBCRUELBARB.
Lotting time, all i see is pass, pass, pass, even the hunter passes(Wouldn't have minded if he rolled need), then I see a roll....a NEED roll....FROM THE FUCKING PALLY.....THE GODDAMN FUCKING PALLY.....HE THINKS IT'S WORTH 5 GOLD AND HE'S GONNA NPC IT ALKJHW:OQIU:AOISJKLJAS GET THE GODDAMN QUEST MACE YOU FUCKINGNUUBIIEGAHINEEDTHATSHITITISLIFEYOUSEE. I finally roll Need.
97, Cruelbarb won. I proceed to scream at 2 am FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING DUMBSHIT PALADIN!! I WON IT AND IT IS MINE BITCH. After we head out he proceeds to WHISPER me telling me that he'll buy it off me for 5 gold. I /ignore and hearth out.
Later, I decide, hey, maybe I'll blow the bank and get an enchantment. However, since I have no clue how much it costs, I whisper a random guy who was seling a Crusader enchant. Ask him how much it is...60g. Sooo, anything cheaper? He proceeds to run down the the shitty enchants, and, he happesn to mention the Firey enchant. I ask how much...20g. Damn, oh well, I was close at one time(13), but, I blew most of it on some blue gloves.
He proceeds to offer to do the Firey enchant for free, since apparently people appreciate it when you aren't a douche when you /whisper someone.
tl;dr: I went from no real offhand sword to a Cruel Barb with Firey...for FREE.....YES. And beat a retarted Pally for it to boot.
it wasn't that he COULDN'T vendor a BOP. He wanted to buy it from me, so he could SELL it....to the vendors.
I know, I'm probably crazy, but I just can't stand it when people knowingly lot on items that they are not going to use...AT ALL.
He wasn't planning on doing ANYTHING with it. Not disenchanting it, not using it, just selling it to a vendor.
It's fine when no one in the group could need and or use it. As I said, I would have been fine on the HUNTER rolling on it, at least he'll use a fairly rare drop for somthing.
Combined with him playing a class that had nearly no use for it(Since there are about 85 billion things that are better/equivilent at that level) and it makes for MAXIMUM RAGE.
In hindsight, if it was auctionable, I would have had no problem. Probably would have went for 30-40g's, since the only thing better is the Shadowfang. But to VENDOR it, Vendor an item that someone in your party DESPERATLY needs...
I am using the Barb on my Paladin right now...I have the Fist but I want to use a shield so I went to my one hander and that is the best one I have at 29, I need to go farm another one...and I need to hit up Gnomer for it.
Paladins can use one handed swords, so if he was planning on using it to tank with, I wouldn't have a problem with a pally rolling on that.
IMO, you guys fucked up by letting him stay in the group anyway. I would have booted his ass a long time ago. Depending on the levels, a voidwalker or a hunter pet can tank that place.
Well, considering we had both, and that I was decked out in more +Agility gear then a nubbie really should have, all of us could solo a mob each fairly easily, which we mostly did. We were all low 20's with the excpetion of the priest, who was "only" 19.
We were just going through it so fast we didn't even notice. Plus, I was having a blast. Having a competent tank would have made it TOO easy, so for that, I thank him .
It was only when we wiped via patrols that I noticed he was a douche.
I was playing my shaman, who is level 21. I just made it over to Westfall, and was escorting the traitor when a couple of horde show up, kill the traitor and then me (I have no idea how I ended up being flagged.) They /laughed, and danced on my corpse.
I had my 'lock parked in the Westfall inn.
I logged in, mouted up, ran over, and made short work of them.
I /laughed and danced on their corpses. I hope they got the connection.
I was a total asshole last night, and I loved every second of it.
So, someone in guild chat asks if anyone would like to go kill Durn the Hungerer. I've got the quest, so I join up. And before you know we've got a guild 5-man to go after Durn.
Unfortunately, the only thing close we had to a tank or a healer was a 65 pally. Oops.
So, I follow the damn guy around in stealth (I'm a rogue) around Oshu'gun 5 times before everyone gets there and we actually hit the damn thing. We got it down about half way before we wiped. (Well, THEY wiped. I vanished.)
So, I keep following this thing around, and everyone was just catching up to me when I see a human on a talbuk riding up, level 70 warrior. And then a bunch of other guys, and then I see that the warrior was using charge on durn.
Well, I'm within melee range of Durn's ASS, so I use cheapshot.
And I got him. I stole Durn the Hungerer from the Alliance, and they didn't even notice. So I yell excitedly to my party that I just got durn, so they come and help to take him down.
I like to immagine those alliance players being all happy that these horde have come to help them. Only to realize the horrific truth as Durn Falls, I /thank them, and then proceed to loot the body.
My Guild Master (who was actually in the party) said he was proud of me. I cried tears of joy.

On the Gorefiends armor quest, me and 2 guildies watched 7 allinace, including 3 paladins and a druid, let their tank die and we proceeded to kill the rest of them.
I stole the tag at 7% and proceeded to evasion tank him till dead.
I'm running around STV with my draenei shaman (pvp server) on my way to Nesingwary's to turn in the final part of Green Hills. I see a blood elf mage in the water, hiding behind the docks and winding up a pyroblast on some unsuspecting person. I jump in the river and swim up behind him. He's so intent on getting a kill he has no idea I'm there. I one shotted him. Windfury procced and critted on the first hit. Damn that felt good.
Very much an asshole move but one I have pulled a few times as well. When you wipe on a guy and are keeping tabs on him for a long time you get a sense that you deserve him more then the newcomers.
Last night I was playing in the AB 40-49 bracket on my prot. pally. My rogue friend and I were high up on the mountainside defending LM against the rare ally intruder.
I called out to my friend that a 49 hunter was on his way up. After trading serpent stings and judgements, the hunter decided his foray was a lost cause. Usually people just accept their impending death, this hunter decided to go out with a bang.
ololz nubs wont catch me! And he threw himself off the cliff.
This repeated itself a few minutes later with a lone warrior. To give him credit, I think he wasn't looking.
Shmoepong on
I don't think I could take a class without sparring. That would be like a class without techniques. Sparring has value not only as an important (necessary) step in applying your techniques to fighting, but also because it provides a rush and feeling of elation, confidence, and joyful exhaustion that can only be matched by ... oh shit, I am describing sex again. Sorry everyone. - Epicurus
Having a warrior in the beginning of an instance (in this case, Durnholde Keep in the Caverns of Time) ask your pally over and over: "are you sure you can heal? You're not as good as a priest. Are we going to wipe?"
And then not wiping because yes, you actually can heal, dammit.
Cloudeagle, being a guy who normally plays Alliance characters I would worry about a Shaman being main healer. I really don't know what their potential is. So I understand why someone would be nervous about a Paladin mainhealer.
While on the other hand, I would trust a Druid, or Paladin who says they are a healer. (Unless it is a level 15 Paladin trying to be main healer in Dead Mines, did that once it didn't work well.)
