Yea the price you pay for raiding. None of those comments ever bother me unless its as dumb as " your a fucking faggot, I hate you ". That obviously doesn't help the situation at all, and there is no form of constructive criticism there, just being a dick.

This shit never bothered me because I knew I wasn't the one fucking up. Every guild has their Mindias who need yelled at for sucking.

Yelling works. Even for the people that are not getting yelled at, it creates motivation to not suck. You don't want to get yelled at -- better focus!

Can't blame him for yelling, 99.9% of WoW players suck ass at video games.

He's probably referring to the time we were in Plane of Fear and I casted too soon and got a mob ping-ponging. Then I did that once more when we were in teh Hole. Oh noes! You know how many people have done that? Probaby everybody at one point or another. I'll agree that there are a lot of shitty players out there that don't know how to play their character, but it's a learning process. Not only that, but knowing your role in the raid is also a learning process. The more you play, the better you get (or should get).

Hell I did that shit on purpose when the situation called for it, or if I just wanted to annoy the tank. I never saw a situation in a raid where it was a good idea though.

Looking back on this thread, some of the times I laughed my ass off the most during MMO's, is when the raid leader goes off on some tool. You gotta admit it's pretty hilarious at times. Sucks for the dude in the hotseat though lol.

after a while in a high end guild, it basically becomes an artform

bustin other peoples chops was probably 75% of the fun in raiding

Yes, its very funny when 39 people lose an hour of their lives to your stupidity because you fucked up. I just laugh it up every time some faggot gets me killed and I lose 20g in consumables.

It's not difficult to understand that people get upset over something that they invest themselves in so much. Would you get upset if someone scratched your car? The money you pay to play is little compared to the amount of time you spend playing. It can be less enjoyable with certain dipshits fucking it up.

And if you're going to play on the level of which requires you to "not suck", you open yourself up to the critical additudes and criticism of the players you're playing with, whom have certain expectations of you (as does anyone who you engage in a long-term relationship with).

It's also not ridiculous to accept that yelling is an effective way to improve preformance.
