Why Does It Feel Like Poor Play Is Acceptable (I'm Venting.)

[ovIm]

What's the point of having an echo chamber forum? If no one voices opinions which differ, people assume they are the majority or somehow innately right

its not that we want this here to be an echo chamber, its just that we dont really hear good opinions or reasons why our view of things is wrong. For example, I still haven't read anywhere why anyone finds it acceptable for DPS to do less damage per second than healers or tanks. I still haven't seen a good reason why a DPS' performance should not be as transparent as a tanks or healers. And as long as we dont hear solid, good arguments, we will continue to be vocal to what we still think is true, our views are not challenged.

This.

I'm a DPS player and I should be held to the same standards of play that tanks and healers are held to because that's FAIR.

I don't understand why anyone feels it's okay for tanks and healers to be judged but DPS players are these fragile little butterflies and they can't risk allowing us to know that WE and we alone are the reason our raid isn't making the DPS check...
