Oh man, bad PUGs...

Where do I start? Well I had some pretty terrible groups in WC. Let's start with the one that took us about 4,5 hours. Actually the group was okay and the guys were nice and it was overall enjoyable, but we were pretty unlucky. For one thing our main healer got disconnected for 1,5 hours through the middle of it, for another thing our main tank dropped out after 3 hours because he needed to go. Overall we wiped 5 times. Mostly it was just bad luck - one aggro'ed too many and I was the only healer as a feral druid and no mana potions or water to refresh myself that was pretty nasty. Anyway the group was okay, but the run was hell.

2 other nice experiences in WC, two groups, totally different characters - same phenomenon. I had 2 runs were the priest (YES, PRIEST!) were thinking their tanks and always running impatiently in front of all others. They were of course no good and aggro'ed alot and made life pretty hard for everyone. Well I understand that playing a priest can be very unthankful and unrewarding, but to be so impatient at a level below 25? I don't understand that...

Oh yeah and we had a total noob in Blackfathom one time. It was a shaman, and the lowest char in the group. Anyways he was new to BFD (as 3 others were too, but at least we were more mature as players - maybe being older than 21 helped us there). Anyway he was always running ahead and pulling aggro. When we tried to tell him "stay back!" he said "okay" - but would do it again right away. When 4 peopled /yell'ed at him "STAY THE F*** BACK!" he replied "lol! It's okay too just take a look! lol". And four people /yell'ed in unison "Not in your case damn it! Your pulling the mobs because of your low level!" (Apparently he didn't notice that himself even after 4/5th of the instance were done...) Well he did stay a little farther back then, but it seemed to get him all giddy. He started jumping around and hitting on the female character (who was actually a female player, 3 of us were und teamspeak and could went our frustration about the guy there). Interestingly our supposed age for that guy seemed to decrease constantly. While we started off guessing he was maybe 18-19 we ended up assuming he was about 13-14 at most, judging from his behaviour and from what he said... Damn, talk about annoying ;)
