What is a "bad player" to you?

[Woffy]

I just want to piggyback on this and ask the name of the MMO where you're a healer that JUST heals because I want to know where people got this weird idea you're supposed to do nothing but spam HP restoration skills. I've played; Asheron's Call, Everquest 2, Tera, Aion, Asheron's Call 2, Dungeon and Dragons Online, Neverwinter, Champions Online, Guild Wars 2, Wakfu, Ragnarok Online, Vanguard, Wildstar, Archeage, and at least a half-dozen other MMOs I've forgotten the name of. In not a single one of them was the 'healer' expecting to do nothing but heal. It's driving me insane, where is the idea that 'I play a healer I should only heal' come from!?

In terms of the topic itself, first thing that comes to mind are people who refuse to use no-cost (as in an ogcD that doesn't reduce their output at all) aggro-reduction skills and strip aggro from the tank like you're proving a point that you're outdamaging their aggro generation.

Just wanted to answer your question: Everquest.

And concerning Vanguard, yes you could play Disciple or Bloodmage (both healed through dps). But if you played Shaman or Cleric in a raid you didnt do more than buff/debuff and heal/shield. And if a raid depended on the dps of a cleric? That raid was doomed from the beginning.
Archeage you chose 3 different skill sets so no pure healer. Guild wars 2 didn't even have a decent healer until ranger, and that is still not a pure healer.
Tera Ive played Mystic so offcourse I dps:ed.

Anyway I played most of those games and then some and this is the first game I've heard healers must dps. In most (at least in older games) healers usually have dps for soloing xp, the healer is usually expected to heal/shield, buff/debuff, summon, rezz, aka your basic healer duties.

That said, I do dps as a healer in this game since there is to much dead time otherwise. But that is me, I wouldn't complain about a healer just healing.

As far as topic is concerned I'd say a bad player is someone who doesn't want to improve or doesn't care (no I don't place non-dps healers in this category).
