DPS is flat out stupid. Bring back DD

[LineageRazor]

While I realize it will not change, that WoW has ingrained it far too thoroughly into Western consciousness, I agree completely.

"I am a DD!" - sounds good.
"I am a Damage Dealer!" - sounds good.
"I am a DPS!" - sounds good.
"I am a Damage Per Second!" - uh, no.

It's a bit like how to tell whether you should be using "it's" or "its".

Whenever you use "it's" in a sentence, sound it out to yourself, expand "it's" to "it is". If the sentence still makes sense, you're using it correctly. If not, you're not.

"It's a beautiful day today!" -> "It is a beautiful day today!" - Sounds good!
"A cloud passed by, and I'm in it's shadow." -> "A cloud passed by, and I'm in it is shadow." - Nope!
