Oh man, where do I start? There was the Stockades run where one member of the group pointed out to the other members who kept asking which way was out that "Out is where we go when everyone in the group is finished with their quests." Bless her. I ended up joining her guild.

Then there was the Deadmines run where we too succumbed to generosity and let a lower level mage join us. She would continually pull critters when the priest very clearly asked us to hold up a minute while they restored their mana.

She kept aggroing everything and...get this...tanking. About as well as a mage can tank, that is. As we had both a paladin and a warrior, we asked her to please stop, told her to please stop and then finally got nasty about it. We made it all the way to the ship in an awkward silence. She proceeded to aggro everything on the second deck, wiped the group, then bailed. As with a previous poster, we ended up finishing the instance in excellent form without her "help".

I avoid PUGs whenever possible. Luckily, I belong to a guild that has a great diversity of professions and helpful people who are willing to quest with their guildies. They also speak in complete sentences and use grammar and punctuation.

It's like I've died and gone to heaven.
