    I better add context, not that it matters how many times I have explained it. I am already healing players "to the best of my ability". Me stating "I am expected to cure 2 spam, medica 2 spam, hardcast raise" are how some players think (demand) I should be healing. Having them see me casting cure 2, or medica 2, rather than using an oGCD heal or lily, gives off the perception that I am "healing to the best of my ability", rather than me actually healing to the best of my ability.
    Let me ask you this, then. You've mentioned more than once about damage or death being the fault of those you're responsible for healing in a group. If it's not a factor directing how you support your party, why would that even come up?

    Sometimes there is actually nothing you can do for a player. No matter how much you tried to heal them. I do not have precognition. I could have dropped a benediction on them, cure 2 spammed them, or whatever else and they still die. It can be from an instakill mechanic, them bumping the side of spikes, falling off the edge, a consistent failure of mechanics (vuln stacks+), etc.. I also have responsibilities to the rest of the party too. My focus cannot always be on one player, there are seven others that may require heals. While I consider many of the reasons for a player's death their own fault, it doesn't actually stop me from still continuing to try to heal them.

    Then let this be your epitaph. We know better, you know better, and yet you keep acting like nothing's going on. If this attitude (and the actions that go with it) is the reason you got a warning, then it doesn't matter how much you try to deny it on the forums, because SE knows better too. If it isn't, then go on and keep being you against everyone's better judgment, and pray you don't make the same 'griefing' offense again, whatever else it could've been.

    Only you can change you.
