DPS is flat out stupid. Bring back DD

[Nalien]

DPS - Damage Player Stirrer-up

- I tryed ._.

Given their average intelligence, habit of eating dirt for fights, and the simple fact that they've gone for the simplest of roles to play, I've gone with;

DPS - Dump People/Person Statistically.

Works quite well with healers and tanks too. Healer focuses too much on nuking and the tank dies? The healer was trying to be a DPS.

DD sounds so stupid, I'd rather be called a DPS. Who cares what it actually stands for.

I see update info isn't coming quickly enough for pedantic threads like this to crop up.

Lets call us Damagers, Attackers, or Strikers. No need to use the same term as other MMOs.

just call all roles BS for button smashers

Does it really matter? Most games say DPS these days and there weren't enough games that used DD back in the day to make a trend.

Boredom intensifies.

This reminds me of the character vs toon argument.

Pre-patch lull is real.

Let's call each other by their character name.

Coming from ffxi, I still say DD and people say to me "why do you call it DD instead of DPS?"

I simply say "well think about it for a second, I'm a damage dealer, or, I'm a damage per second..."

Then they scoff at me and go quiet.
