just to be stupid and funny
and sorry i took it from tentonhammer

1) Do not spam the raid channel with panicked alert messages like "INCOMING (Raid Leader's Name)! EVAC!! EVAC!!" because no one will ever find it as funny as you do.

2) Screaming that you are "The King Of the Shiny People" and evacing anyone who tries to harvest them to the zone line will not win you friends.

3) Yes, you CAN pull the named mob with a snowball, so don't try it.

4) Evac is not an "AOE heal spell" and you should never cast it near the main tanks, even if you are really just trying to help.

5) Dark elf rogues do not put the "Ass" in "Assassin" and "Padonk-a-donk" is not a real spell, so don't insist that they cast it.

6) You don't need to "sacrifice a Ranger to the gods of Rez" to properly start a raid.

7) Screaming "INCOMING!!!" and feigning death in front of the clerics makes them nervous so cut it out.

8) It is not my job to determine if the main tank looks bored or not, and pulling ADDS to help them "relieve the monotony of Raiding" is strictly forbidden.

9) Lava is not a teleport spell, and charging people to "use it" is just plain mean.

10) Most Raids require more than, and highly frown on using "Leet tradeskill Armor".

11) Miming the "addition symbol" in emotes is not the proper way to warn of incoming ADDS.

12) Rangers are not "Arrow Hucking Nancies", they are scouts, and so they ARE allowed to roll on Scout drops.

13) Bio, AFK, BRB, GTG, and RDY? do not mean "Evac", so don't do it.

14) Asking "Is Botting allowed?" will get you kicked from a Raid Group quickly.

15) The low-level grey con mob beating on me is NOT my pet and I am not allowed to petition other group members for killing him.

16) "Dibs" is not a recognized way of winning a lotto, even if you did call it first.

17) Aggro transferring spells go on the main tank, not the annoying cleric who refuses to heal you.

18) The Raid Leader talks in all caps for a reason. He does not need to be reminded about his caps lock key or called a "n00b" every few minutes.

19) Adding lines that proclaim love for "naughty butt sex" in all Caps under what the Raid Leader says, while comedic, is not appropriate or welcomed.

20) Stop quoting Monty Python, because EVERYONE starts doing it, and it disrupts the Raid.

21) Yes. "Ni" counts, no one cares if it IS your battle cry. Cut it out.

22) No, we are not there yet - the raid leader will TELL you when we are there, STOP ASKING.

23) No female toon is your "*****", and you have no right to "Sell her for hot cyber" in the auction channel.

24) "Welcome to Wipe Fest 2006" is not a proper group greeting, and no one thinks you are funny.

25) "Clapping" does not rez fallen Fae, and its not the fault of the people who "don't believe".

26) Intentional Cyber-sex mistells to the Raid Leader, in Raid channel are not amusing.

27) Just disarm the damn master chest. Making people do the "Truffle shuffle" will just piss them off.

28) Saying you disarmed the chest when you didn’t; because no one did the Truffle Shuffle is not funny.

29) There are no "shortcuts" through Mistmoore Castle.

30) ALT+F4 does NOT help you "target mobs faster", so stop insisting that it does.

31) Ornate chest drops do not "attack" you, and you do *NOT* evac when you see one. EVER.

32) "Stop sucking." is not a battle plan.

33) Never close doors on Tanks who are running back from pulling mobs from the next room.

34) Don't emote that you rolled a number that you didn't really roll?

35) "Sorry, I was looking at porn." Is NOT a valid excuse for anything.

36) The Raid Leader is not required to say "Simon Says" before every command.

37) Other people harvesting collects does not "Ruin my Shiny faction", and I cannot forbid anyone to do it.

38) "Group Leader" does not over-ride "Raid Leader" commands, and never, EVER kick the Raid Leader from your group for "Gross insubordination."

39) Saying "He's just going to sell it on the broker" after I lose every lotto makes me look bitter and I should stop doing it.

40) Saying "I'm just going to put it on the broker" after I WIN a lotto that a lot of people really wanted will upset everyone.

41) Instructing clerics to "Heal me *****" will not get you healed.

42) I do not know "Cheat codes" for the game, and I should stop trying to sell them in the auction channel.

43) Nobody wants to hear about my creamy milky thighs.

44) Guides take the reporting system VERY seriously, and my Raid Leader talking in all caps is NOT a violation of the EULA.

45) Nobody wants to buy my character so I can go play WoW. Stop asking.

46) Putting your Raider Leader on Ignore for talking in all caps REALLY upsets him.

47) Evacing people to give them a "Time Out" disrupts the Raid.

48) Role playing each attack, thrust, parry, and swing in emotes is not really fighting.

49) The tank is NOT my pet, and his name is NOT "Mister Nibblenipples".

50) It is not my Raid Leader's birthday, and shouting in every zone that he is sad and "Happy Birthday Tells would really cheer him up" is not a good idea.

Thats Coyote alright...

From the frequent mention of Evac can you tell which ability he uses to entertain himself with the most?

Thanks for putting up the linky also Kiara.

25) "Clapping" does not rez fallen Fae, and its not the fault of the people who "don't believe".

Coyote wastes more of my coffee, and is responsible for many, many un-rezable keyboards.

God, why do I suspect we're going to be seeing a few more of these pop up in raids?

I miss the days where, when you cast a nuke and cancelled at the last second, it would still seem to "hit" the mob. Of course there was always the risk you wouldn't cancel in time...

Wonder if it still works...hmmm hmm hmm... ^^

You get one person on vent who says "Ni" and the next thing you know...

I punt the Monty Python goons into their own channel when they get going. It's useless to try to stop them once they start, might as well just put 'em all together and let 'em go nuts.


Speaking of "Adds":

Back in T6, we zoned into Court of Al'Afaz one night. We were waiting on someone and chit chatting in vent. Our main tank was a big burly barbarian guardian who was known to be a little fiery from time to time (redheaded irishman in RL). Definitely someone who came across as a "man's man" - gruff fatherly kind of guy.

He was relaying a story in which he revealed he'd been on the dance team in high school. Poofe: "The dance team?" This utterly derailed the entire group - the jokes started flying - Teb in a pink tutu, twirling with the fairies, etc. etc. This went on for a couple minutes, which he endured patiently and with good humor.

We were standing in front of the Gatekeeper.

I sent him a tell...



It surprised 'em all right!! (oo but some folks were darned fast with that strip macro LOL)

He didn't let me get away with that, and read the tells to everyone on vent. d'oh!
