Nick celebrates, Real Men of LFR

Kudos to you, Mr. Heroic Gurthalak. (Mr. Heroic Gurthalak!)

You joined LFR and on Madness you started doing 70k DPS (that's a lot of damage!)

But you did it all on the wings and arms, so the corruption died very slow every time, and the bolt hit each time as well (LFR doesn't matter)

And the last platform you brought the tentacle low enough to spawn blistering tentacles at the same time the bolt and 2nd impales hit, all by yourself! (someone pick up the tank!)

So thanks, Mr. Heroic Gurthalak. Your contributions to the fight made all our dicks shrink in relation to yours, because clearly recount is more important than doing the fight right (ow my BALLLLLLS)

Mr. Heroic Gurthaaalaaaaaaaak

that's so awesome... well said.

That guy what a flapping idiot, he can pad the meters more by switching.. he only has his own debuffs to the arm by staying there all the time, and cleave/storm adds increase the meters even more..

Joined an LFR in madness already, they just wiped, I don't know why until the fight started, tanks were awful, they didn't taunt the corruption, I got killed on the second one, first one I had to vanish, I got bressed, I had to vanish on the 3rd and very slow DPS the fourth (until they got sufficient threat)

last phase was the same think the 2 big adds running around and killing some peeps... a feral kitty had to go bear to control them.. luckilly we had some nice healers and pro dps carrying the group.

Well at least I paid for repairs with the shard I got from the DE agi dagger that dropped (and nobody wanted)

so last night i was the asshat. I didnt heal on Zonozz until black phase. and then i only holy radianced/light of dawned. I pulled 10k hps, was second on the meter, and we didnt wipe. I was beat out by a disc priest, and number 4 on the meter was the DK tank.

I could reasonably just sit on my hands the whole fight. I'm not sure how other people do it...

I noticed 1 hunter just standing out inthe middle of no where, not doing anything, but moving with the group around the room during trash. Needless to say, he died every time we had a red ooze. And he didn nothing the whole fight either.

That's about how I heal Zon too.

Usually I go around bouncing the ball if the tank points the boss the wrong way.

I get the inevitable "YOU DON'T NEED TO BOUNCE IT IN LFR JACKASS" but hey, I like it when the boss takes extra damage. And having a healer do it means they can keep themselves alive and handle dispels.

So last night I LFR first wing with my Shaman healer.. I noticed the Offtank taking tons of damage barely keeping him alive, I thought he had Morchok stacks or something, he also stayed in the black ooze.. we kept him alive anyway..

Well Zonnoz is one tank fight so no big issue, came Yor'sahj and he died 3 times on trash.. I /inspect him and he wasn't even on tank spec much less gear, after the 4th death I tell him that if he could please put some tank gear or at least go blood spec.

His Response was "We always one tank this sh*t, shut the f**k up you Mal'ganis Elitist F*g" and was kicked from the LFR.. (it was a semi guild run it seemed)

After a quick report for direct insults I re-Q'd got instant pop as healer, luckilly same 2/8 run ready to pull boss and breezed thru the 2 last bosses with no tank issues.

1 tanking the first half is perfectly fine. if he was taking tons of damage though, doesn't that mean he was trying to 2 tank in DPS spec/gear?

To gib the priest who wandered a little too close to Morchok's nuts?

*schlong*

My favorite thing to do in LFR as I am usually that 2nd tank is to run around on Hagraa and teabag all the people who die to ice walls of death or ice dropping from above.

Sometimes I do have to end up tanking on that fight though as my 2nd fav thing is watching the other tank eat the Furious till he dies.

Actually , I pretty much run around and teabag anyone in LFR who dies to mechanics.

It makes the run more enjoyable for me. I even macro it on my bear tank so it says -
"One furry testicle or two with your ballsack tea??"

Ah the joys of LFR.

an 'asshat' is not some people being idiots in general in a video game.

'asshat' was started in chat rooms to describe people with @ next to their name to show they are moderators (and who usually abused the priviledge, hence 'mods being an ass'... asshat --->@) about 12-14yrs ago in aol dialup, and has since expanded to every chatroom with moderators.

there are no mods in raids on wow.

fun story: language evolves.

especially slang.

a douchebag used to be a medical product!

i thought an asshat was the same as a trampstamp... just not as skanky, there-by not actually having any use; just taking up space that could better be used by something (dare I say anything) else.

but to tangentialize my rhetoric from your comment, these asshats are abusing the loot system to benefit from other people without contributing to the whole. Or they are blatantly doing things wrong without any intention of changing, and if they respond to any chastizement it is usually some elitist rant. Anonimity too can be abused.
