DPS is the job of DPS.

[Cherie]

Everyone seems to want some simple rule of thumb or some words of wisdom to live by.

As in: "Healers shouldn't have to dps, they *Heal*" or some such... I mean, it's not... "wrong"?

I mean it's just life though, it's scary and confusing. Sometimes up is down and all that. Unfortunately everyone has to try their best and just use their best judgement. If someone's best judgement is they wanna do the same thing they always do then they aren't going to get very far in any multiplayer game. That's why I get annoyed when people get bullheaded that healers *must* dps or a healer feels like they aren't required to at all. Surely though, I'm not any of your's momma (that I know of, because...aliens?!) so I don't really get involved in anyone's business hardly, unless I see you a lot. If someone I see once in a dungeon isn't doing what I think they should do, I usually overlook it unless they are doing it intentionally to give me a hard time (but then I'll just leave and re-queue in 30 minutes...will give me a excuse to craft some food/potions for raid). If the same thing happens in a static I'm in I might say something. If it happens with a close friend I'm sure I'd have a discussion with them if they felt like it.

But yea, besides that, if I did take a issue with someone I didn't know and I thought I could use some of my internalized existential horror and twist it into some kind of humor to emphasize my point I might... But only then! Because...jokes? Honey is much easier to swallow than vinegar after all. But if it's a bad joke, then it's more like a spoonful of gasoline... Well, life is also risk I suppose.
