Pretty sure the reason there are so many bad healers now is because they see the countless posts about ‘healer dps’ ‘healers can’t ever heal’ ‘dps is all they can ever have’ ‘it’s all oGCD heals’ ‘never use a gcd or you will be kicked blacklisted banned’, completely misunderstand what it actually means and that people are talking about design philosophy and not literal practice, then go into playing healer thinking they literally do not need to use a single healing spell or ability the entire fight so long as they maintain acceptable dps uptime. I mean, look how angry so many healers get at the idea of having to use an actual gcd spell…

It's crazy, isn't it? Players have to understand it's okay to use their gcd heals too. They may lose the damage from one glare or two; but, a healer is there to keep the party alive. So, if they don't have any ogcd heals, and the tank's health is dipping dangerously low, cast the damn Cure IIs already!

Only the most clueless individual will attempt to kick them for it, and if they are kicked, so what? They'll get another group in less than 5 minutes.
