			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having done a few RaidFinder groups, I&#8217;m starting to notice patterns. Sadly, they&#8217;re not really GOOD patterns. For whatever reason, the players who show up, do their jobs, get loot and go on their merry way don&#8217;t seem to stick out in LFR. On the other hand, the ones that DO stick out tend to be&#8230; memorable.</p>
<p>And so I present to you, the people of Raid Finder:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Guys I&#8217;m SO baked</strong> &#8211; drunk, high, stoned, exhausted, or otherwise generally mentally incapacitated. Probably still trying to main tank too.</li>
<li><strong>Walking Taunt Button</strong> &#8211; taunts everything off the tank. Even if they&#8217;re not the main tank. Sometimes even if they&#8217;re just DPS. Probably has &#8220;taunt&#8221; macro&#8217;d to every other button.</li>
<li><strong>Hypercompetitive DPS</strong> &#8211; often meter spamming. Sometimes abrasive to other DPS. Possibly Tarquin.</li>
<li><a href="http://jadedalt.wordpress.com/2012/01/20/dps-farming/#more-5215">DPS Farmers</a> (whatever that means)</li>
<li><strong>Bad Directions</strong> &#8211; no matter how you do it, it&#8217;s wrong. His way is better. Shouts directions repeatedly in /yell or /RA, but isn&#8217;t the raid leader. Annoying if ignored, wipe-creating if only half the raid is paying attention.</li>
<li><strong>Not Paying Attention</strong> &#8211; Wait, we got loot? Which boss are we at now? Where are you guys going?</li>
<li><strong>I Have An Interrupt Macro, would you like to see it?</strong> &#8211; I use it every time I interrupt this trash mob! And the boss!</li>
<li><strong>Get Loot + Go </strong>- rolls on something, wins, drops group. Sometimes doesn&#8217;t even win loot.</li>
<li><strong>Worst Name Contest </strong>- so far the list includes Tittenkits, ElusiveTacos, ShavedTaters and SpasticColon</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;m SURE you guys can come up with some more&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><em>The set which you find most visually attractive and best suited to your character will either be no longer available in game or restrictive to obtain and dependent on multiple player interaction in old/outdated content as well as require several random drops.</em></p>
<p>See: Loot Unicorn</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=962">See Also: Mistshroud Armor</a></p>
<p>Of COURSE that would be the set I really want to collect for Angoleth. I guess I should go after the <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=401">Dragonstalker Recolor</a> instead, as <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=471">Ahn&#8217;Kahar Blood Hunter</a> doesn&#8217;t look much more likely. It shouldn&#8217;t be any harder to get than Annorah&#8217;s <a href="http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=390">Earthfury Recolor</a>.</p>
<p>And yes, I am counting my lucky stars that Aely already HAS the Soulforge set, all of T9 with matching boots and weapon, and several other really attractive sets of mail armor.</p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Quiet DPS:</strong> Thinks he&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, but never really says much. Just shows up and does his job. Probably tops the meters without anyone noticing until the logs are posted.</li>
<li><strong>Noisy DPS:</strong> Thinks she&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, and Just. Will. Not. Shut. Up. Constantly chattering in vent, possibly even to the point of missing instructions or talking over the raid leader.</li>
<li><strong>Hax DPS:</strong> Thinks he&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, and knows his class mechanics better than the developers. Manages to pull stunts that make other raid members blink in confusion. Occasionally wipes the raid trying to pull these off, but when he&#8217;s successful, it&#8217;s AMAZING.</li>
<li><strong>Excuses DPS:</strong> Thinks she&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, except for that night, and that other night, and that time with all the lag, and the day her video card started fritzing, and the other evening when it was raining, and &#8230;</li>
<li><strong>Patient DPS:</strong> Thinks she&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, and manages to get every other player of her class in the raid to perform consistently better, week by week.</li>
<li><strong>Prepared DPS:</strong> Thinks he&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, brings enough flasks, food, and other consumables to make sure everyone else is the best ever too.</li>
<li><strong>QQ DPS: </strong>Thinks she&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, but thinks Blizzard has it out for her class and made it so that bunnies/swords/cats/tinfoil doesn&#8217;t work on that fight. Complains loudly and repeatedly of being gimped by the developers, regardless of where other players of her class/spec fall on the meters.</li>
<li><strong>Stands-in-it DPS</strong>: Thinks he&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, and might actually prove that he is, if he could only figure out how to not stand in the fire.</li>
<li><strong>Chuck Norris DPS: </strong>Thinks he&#8217;s the best &lt;class&gt; ever, and actually pulls it off.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>(And yes, this is FIRMLY tongue in cheek. Especially since I now play DPS!)</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Begging in the streets of Stormwind (or Orgrimmar, or wherever) is a pasttime as old as WoW. Low level players without enough gold to train come through, begging for 1 or 5 gold, or just a few silver, to be able to buy skills (or a mount &#8211; though that used to be a bigger fiscal commitment&#8230; GET OFF MY LAWN!) Usually I don&#8217;t pay too much attention, though if someone is particularly nice/polite and RP&#8217;s at me, I&#8217;ve been known to help them out.</p>
<p>This week though, I encountered a whole new level of begging.</p>
<blockquote><p>[07:24] [Y] [Redacted]: i need 225g  please</p></blockquote>
<p>At least he said please, right?</p>
<p>Sheesh.</p>
