And again, I will normally keep it to myself unless things like I mentioned happened. Had one DD badmouthing another DD forweak gear(It was actually not half bad) yet he wasn't even beating me as a Warrior, but the one he was badmouthing was. And of course, with the current state of things, any class' DPS that uses any form of DoT should be taken with a grain of salt, but when the gap is large it's still a decent guideline.
I'm terribly sorry if you took my statement as an attack of any sort. That was not my intention. It was solely in regards to the OP's "prickish" version of people using DPS charts to simply e-peen. I completely understand where you're coming from as well, and truthfully try to steer as clear as I can from pick-up's/duty finder parties for that reason.
