Labeling yourself is the dumbest thing. Especially if you WANT to be associated with a typically mysogonist, arrogant, sweaty, ill tempered, ill kempt, dreg of society.

I love games and I love eq...but screw that noise.

Sorry you smelly fatass, you are a gamer. Consider yourself labeled.

Don't know what Candy Crush is, but a video game is a video game.

I think it matters when the claim that nearly half of all gamers are women is being made.

I could care less how you use your interweb powerz, and/or feel the need to e-defend your wife; however, acting like you were never in the wrong and there was zero justification for the reaction others gave you in a competitive server first guild is just comical. Take off the rose colored glasses.

First, check your history. Pre-TBC non-resto shamans were relegated to PvP. Ele/Enh spec 'raiding' shamans were new in TBC. No way we could have known there needed to be tweaks and that her spec would be 'the worst'.

Second, I'm not going to continue hashing out old drama that is specific to me and your interpretation of it. I get it, you think there was foul play and that she was 'stealing other people's spots they farmed for'. All I can say is, no, she was voted in after i petitioned to change her rank, and that she had 95%+ attendance over 2 years with us.

My whole point was that she carried her weight in every aspect. I'm sorry you don't think she did based on some interpretation of what I said.

Common knowledge.

I like the part when you admit enhance shm were face rolling to higher dps and equal utility but defend your girlfriend's desire to play as a flawed, under performing snowflake in your Kara first group at the expense of better geared, more veteran raiders.

Why again weren't people super cool with that?

Because kara past the first few times you did it was piss easy. Better to bring in people to get gear there who you will most likely never take past gruul/mag. Unless you're a bleeding edge guild it wasn't about the encounters or the mobs, but about the people you ran it with.

I was under the impression that this was the first few times they were running Kara.

Please don't make me go back and quote all the times server first was mentioned in his post.

Youre right though, clearly it's unreasonable for the 25-30ish established raiders in one of the top guilds on the server to be frustrated at guildleader and his girlfriend for bringing an under geared alt shaman in a known (and self admitted) bad spec while competing for progression/server firsts.

Additionally, girlfriends special snowflake spec parses lowest damage while alternate specs easily out damage it and provide essentially the exact same utility.

But please, tell us how there was no indication of favoritism or impropriety from the guildleader.
