    Why do we lobotomise 1 role when all roles are guilty of the sin of having bad players play them
    And those tanks likely got blocked so that the other people in the group wouldn't get grouped with them again. In a game with this many people playing, you are going to run into some bad ones. There is no getting around that.

    1) you can’t block someone from joining content, you can only silence them in content
    2) blocking someone from not playing a role correctly isn’t remotely comparable to actually completely changing the role to make these sort of failings impossible

    It’s almost like the role that got it worst complains the loudest, shocking isn’t it, it’s also not like the tanks and DPS are quiet they just still have a baseline of fun that precludes the complaints the healers have

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess
