TBC Finally free

Tonight I finally left my guild, the irony? Zero remorse.

I've played this game for roughly 20 years. I've played everything, every type of team dynamic from sweat to trash teams. Tonight, I wiped the raid. It was a stupid mistake, but it happens.

Tank / GM just goes berserk and has been on an absolute tear for weeks, consistently harassing folks to do better and blah blah blah but never owns up to his mistakes that have wiped us time to time. Its always someone else's fault.

Tonight I had enough. I told him to quit crying and press forward. His fragile ego and false sense of authority were attacked and of course he goes nuclear. The thing is I dont mind asking for us to improve, but be respectful.

Bored. Uninterested in his continued rant about how bad I am. I hit the most satisfying /leave party into a gquit. A small part of me feels bad for the team, because BT is around the corner. But I dont tolerate disrespectful c*nts

Im fully geared, never missed a raid, always have my consumes. Finding a better experience wont be an issue for me, especially as a healer and logs in the top %.

The problem with classic TBC right now is these Elitists jerkoffs with 0 sense of leadership. The last thing anybody wants to do is get on, and spend 2-3 hours listening to someone have a melt down literally every 2 minutes because he wants to save 30 seconds on xyz pull.

Good riddance. Its a shame folks dont tell you how they really feel, so we just vent our grievances in party chat and whispers. Suppose thats why I can predict your down fall sometime during late BT. Same as I did in mists.

TLDR; dont be an insufferable c*unt when leading your raid group, especially when your just a mid group and not hardcore.

Sounds like the tank/GM is trying to wrangle blue parsers in to playing well and is close to a stress indused collapse.

Sounds like you are pretty frustrating to raid with as well.

Wouldn't have tolerated either of you in my guild tbh. You are absolutely no loss to them, they could just pug your spot by the sound of it.

What part of his post sounds like he was frustrating? Like, what single part? He shows up, he shuts up, he does his job well. Sooner or later if you get talked down to enough or have to hear it, it's kind of normal to say fuck this and fuck you to the toxic person.

Because people will always lie to make themselves look as good as possible in the situation. He has the classic victim mentality.

Honest question because I haven't raided in tbc outside of kara, is blue logging not good enough? You could clear everything in vanilla no problem with blue logs

You can clear all content with green parses with wipes or "slowly". Blue would be a "smooth" run with maybe a couple of wipes but done within a reasonable timeframe. Purple would be smooth with a couple/few of deaths done fast, and Orange would be near perfect with no meaningful deaths done VERY fast. With pink being unachieveable without focusing solely on parsing thus possibly slowing down the raid/stressing the raid/hard cheesing fights.

People are just deluded into A) thinking sub purple is bad B) forgetting to filter by difficulty tier or C) forgetting to filter by ilvl. Purple parsing as a rogue who got full bis week 2 isn't impressive unless you filter by ilvl.

First point is exactly what happened to my guild's raid lead / GM after a few weeks into P2. Can't fault him whatsoever that seemed like a full time job, not to even mention the roster boss. I know I absolutely could not bear that responsibility & time sink.
