Playing BM doesn't by default make them worse players. In wrath -- we had a BM hunter -- for the specific use of one of their pets during a specific fight -- because it buffed the melee. We were a min/max guild. They weren't as high in dps as some of the other hunters were -- but they weren't -that- far behind them either. And the buff they brought buffed the damage of our other raid members. And since recount doesn't have a feature to tell you exactly how much extra dps one buff gives it's difficult to measure the exact amount -- but it was significant. Don't assume just because Elitest Jerks tell you "use this spec" that in every circumstance the cookie-cutter-theory-crafted spec is ALWAYS the best.

There are exceptions.

And a good player knows the difference between theory, their gear -- their latency -- and their raid composition.
