    I totally agree with you and vastly prefer to OT in WoD. ... but this last point you said is why I'm always the MT, every time. The other tanks just sit there. No one says anything or responds to "I'll OT if someone else will MT" or anything of that variety.

    I feel your pain
    And my ideas for finding decent solutions are sorely lacking.

    I just laugh at it and keep going, I guess.

    Sometimes I like it when an impatient DPS pulls... I let them deal with the boss for a few seconds and just watch the general chaos for a bit. It makes for a good laugh all caused by impatience.
    Then you gotta put on your big-boy pants and clean things up

    I just feel bad watching 23 people wipe because of impatience when I could do something about it.
    But not bad enough to sit there and laugh for 10 seconds first

    I've totally absolutely never done that. Honest. <_<

    I wait until either the DPS dies or hits full health (as in, the healers disagree with my approach) to provoke and tank. Unless another tank does it first! Then I can OT!

    If somebody does something dumb I'll let them die. Though sometimes i don't blame somebody for pulling because 3 Tanks just stand there looking at each other because none of them can be bothered to do anything. Though much of the time some idiot had autorun on and started watching crap on youtube then doesn't notice he ran into the boss room.

    It's not just with that stuff if somebody keeps eating easily dodgeable attacks to stand there and tunnel vision i won't heal them until they start moving. People soon start looking after themselves when they have low HP.

    I think Turn 5 brings out the worst of people. Most WoD runs I've been in people just laugh at the tryhards who are worried their pride might be hurt for wiping once. But in Turn 5, damn, always make sure to have some chips in the oven for my free salt.

    Tonight my FC went into World of Darkness with 7 people (6 of us were on voice chat). Our tank won the caster hat off the first boss and then suddenly a vote kick against the tank went up and the six of us in voice chat were like wtf. The only person who wasn't in our free company, one of the healers, swore it wasn't them. We were like I'm pretty sure people in other alliances can't vote to kick someone in another party but the healer was saying how they were on twitch and would prove it wasn't them. But whoever it was, they tried to vote kick the tank again after the second boss, and then vote abandon after the third. It was just weird.

    When I do WoD I lack patients...... The moment I see everyone in the zone that axe is flying and I'm playing MT. Now if my healers let me die I quit MT and watch everyone play the stare game. But I agree with a lot of the statements made here. One time a meteor hit the ground and wipe party. Now I was MT in tunnel vision and forgot about meteors it's ok 24 other people playing not like they're getting hit yet wipe happens. Tanks get blamed and all I could do is laugh at it.

    You can only initiate a vote kick once every several hours, so it's literally impossible for both to have been done by the healer. It sounds like your FCmates were trolling each other.
