Hate: Lack on tanks on my server. It's ridiculous that you can find 3 dps and a healer in all of 30 seconds, then spend an hour looking for a tank. It's even worse when you take a look in the LFG and see 5 warriors and 4 DKs all wanting to DPS
Well when I look for groups on my warrior it's always the reverse finding a healer or dps
Happy: Anub'Arak 10 (cowardly) down in one shot!
Happier: The tanking shield dropped which was immediately MLed to our prot warrior. This made everyone happy you see, because he'd been tanking with this since his account got hacked in May.
He was already one of the best geared prot warriors on our server despite that ankle weight.
Happy: Our other 10-man took him down a couple hours later, though with a couple of PUGs. One of whom was a tank that wants to join the guild though, so we have about 18 people who can do Heroic now.
Hope: One of our dudes had to leave, but we took a couple stabs at beasts hardmode just to see what we were dealing with. Thanks to timing info I got from the threads here, tanks had no problems with impales, we just didn't quite have the dps to down Gormok before the worms came out. Hopefully, with an extra dps so we aren't 9-manning it, we should be able to cover that last 500k hp.
Annoyed: Missed our Realmfirst Algalon 25 kill due to my shitty connection not being able to handle the fight on a sunday evening. I don't mind that much because I'm not online outside raids really and don't care about achievements, but with this I still don't have a single even remotely hard to get title. Missed every single 10-player title because I'm not the go-to ret for our good 10-man group (I've never even seen Vezax/Yogg on 10-man), missed Immortal as a guild because of MC + frostbolt volley instagib on KT, missed Algalon now...not sure I'll ever get a good title. Also missed every single Glory of the Ulduar raider guildrun due to my connection since they're done on fridays or saturdays.
Annoyed: Why are people obsessed with helping me kill Chillmaw? I can solo it as prot, and I'm already almost done killing him! That way, you don't tag one of the mobs and make me have to do it all over again.

the sooner he dies, the sooner he repops for the 3 groups waiting to do him.

Which happens frequently when pulling like 6 waves of trash in heroics.
Also my friends are dicks and are doing everything in their power to pull stuff off of me.
Which is exactly the crash course in tanking I wanted tbh.
A-B-P. A-always, B-be, P-Pulling. Always be pulling! Always be pulling! A-I-D-A. Attention, interest, decision, action. Attention -- do I have your attention? Interest -- are you interested? I know you are because it's tank or walk. You tank or you hit the bricks! Decision -- have you made your decision for Christ? And action. A-I-D-A; get out there!! You got the mobs comin' in; you think they came in to get out of the rain? A Mob doesn't walk into the group unless he wants to fight. Sitting out there waiting to give you their money! Are you gonna take it? Are you man enough to take it?
You'll soon learn that the best way to get a mob to return to you after someone pulls aggro is to let them die. It'll come straight back!
Well, sometimes you have the problem of, let's say, a warlock pulls aggro, and the boss runs to smack them, and they shatter, but the other ranged DPS who were above your threat but below 130% happen to now be in melee with the angry boss, through no fault of their own... Then it is nice to taunt if you can.

Which is why you're watching the target's target frame. If it switches from warlock X to warlock Y then taunt. If it switches to a healer, taunt. If it switches to a rogue then don't worry the rogue will be dead before the taunt gets off so why bother?

Not for the groups that just finished him, and I'm the only other person there. I regularly play 1 AM server time or later, so having a queue of people isn't a huge issue.
Fun: Healed a 25 Naxx on my priest as holy, and actually enjoyed myself. Yay!
Amused: Yes, rogue. You do a shitton of damage on all the fights there (like 6-8k+). But if I have to rez your ass after trash pulls more than once, you still suck. Learn to feint and Vanish! Jesus...

Then it becomes a game of timing your taunt so that the warlock dies and the mob is taunted back to you
if the warlock dies and no one else dies, you win.
if the warlock dies and two or three mages die, you still win.

I hate the people who can solo Chillmaw ignoring people asking for a group: you can solo it, them being there will only make it faster, why not invite them and get two+ people's quests done at the same time. They might be doing it to piss you off, not to "help" you.

Attacking Booty bay guards should flag you against your own faction and not aggro guards if you get attacked by other players. I just want to murder all these stupid fucking assholes who keep killing all the questgivers. Fuck them in their stupid asses. They should be banned forever.

The fastest way for Bloodsail is to kill guards in a specific spot. Anyone routinely killing questgivers are being griefing douchebags or completing the quest at the end of the road.
It only takes, like, 3 hours of grinding to get all the way to Honored with them nowadays. Most people only need Friendly for the hat. Shouldn't take too long before they're done.
So I get into this pug for normal ToC. The 'tank''s health is kinda low so I check out his gear. I figure if he's good and the healer is good then it's no big deal but he's wearing a mixture defense plus resilience plus dps gear(mostly the latter two). It makes no sense for him to be tanking when the pally healer has 8k more health than he does in her tanking gear. One of the clothies had crap for health and was just asking to be 2-shotted.
I don't usually drop out of groups but I was so not in the mood for that.
I had a warrior ask me if he could tank H ToC. He had 18k health, not def capped and had holy pally gear. I didn't think people could possibly be that stupid.
Happy: Thanks to getting the tanking weapon I got with seals I'm finally def capped. Now I just need to learn how to tank.
Also, I got a my tier chest with emblems for ret.
Hate: My DPS still seems kinda bad. I'm not sure if it's a rotation thing or if it has to do with fights where I get knocked out of range or if I need more of a certain stat I don't have on my gear.

Back in BC I switched my alchemist from potion spec to transmute spec. I nearly shat myself when this happened:
-AGGRO-
right in the middle of exactly where I need to see.
Blizzard's built in stuff? Or maybe Omen, I think it used to do that before I set it to screen flash only.
Edit: vv Right! I recall it stopping when I switched from Xperl to Pitbull.
are you running xperl?
Like yes, I hope I do have AGGRO since I'm tanking, unfortunately you're telling me exactly in the spot where I need to see.
Edit: omgomg I found it! Helper/Target Counters/Aggro Warning
