But...I...I don't wanna DPS, I'm a healer...

I really think that everyone's opinion on this matter is exactly that an "OPINION":P.... Everyone can sit and argue their OPINIONS till they are blue in the face but why bother? The fact is I don't see caster dps's stop pew pewing and start healing everyone o.O? seriously, that would be crazy right maybe for some of us? To a lot of people dpsing as a healer is just as crazy as a dps trying to heal well maybe not as crazy but you get the point.

My point is if the healer doesn't want to dps then let it go.... there could be several reasons for this like maybe the player doesn't feel comfortable with the tank or group.... or maybe the healer had one to many shots of tequila and is trying to figure out which bar among 16 bars is the tanks in a 4 player dungeon.... No matter what the reason is if the healer doesn't want to pew pew then let it go, bc if the healer for some reason gets dps tunnel vision and lets the tank die well that could be an issue that could very well lead to the whole group kissing the ground. Then everyone would have to trek all the way back to where they carved out there initials in the ground.

If you like healing and pew pewing then coodos to you but don't expect extra cookies at the end with a vote... reason being is that the tank did his job by rotating cd's and keeping that smooth flow going. Seriously if I see any healer spending more time dpsing than healing then I know the tank is doing good. However if I see the healer going crazy with healing and the tank is being stupid then guess who will be getting the extra cookies at the end...

Healer dps doesn't impress me much.... what impresses me is when I see a healer bring the whole group back to 3/4 to full health after the whole group just got thrown into a wall of aoes while the tank is taking on huge damage..... Now that impresses me.... Anyway that's my OPINION.... :P
