(I've out-healed random healers with my self-heals.)
What level was your healer? 2? Age? Also 2?
If I get kicked? I get a new random in mere seconds and just keep getting my points, gold, and gear. Got a problem with it? Go whine to your guild tank for an instant que or que as tank yourself.
I'm tired of trying to be nice in LFG. If randoms don't pull their wait, I don't pull them.
Spoken like a true !@#$%

I think this is the reason why I stopped playing. Just people being rude for the sake of being it.
I can understand the, 'I'm not gonna take $%^&' mentality. By all means, if someone is incompetent or just failing, call them out.
However, on that balance as well. There is no need to be a rude straight up. IMO, be polite, but to the point. Instead of saying 'go' ask why your not moving.
I'm starting to learn from various games that, if someone makes a small mistake, the name calling and rudeness starts right away. Everyone is treating everyone like they are all retarded and haven't even seen a keyboard before. Hell, you can see the troll like post in this thread.
Another thing to consider is moral too. People play better when they feel they are dominating and winning rather then being insulted and watching the flames in party chat.

I kick people that say "go" as well. Doesn't happen very often though. I pull pretty fast, and i only wait when i have a reason to wait. Anyone saying go when i am waiting for a reason is byebye material. Now if someone asks in a way that contains more than two letters, i say why we are waiting, and continue the run.

Atik has a point,yes it is based only on his own experience,but that doesn't change the fact that morons on the internet outnumber the "good"(can't find a better word) people.
The above is not a fact, imo. The actual ratio is far closer to 70% decent folks to about 30% of "people that make me want to live in a cave". We simply remember the "ptmmwtliac" far longer because they're so much louder than the average.

Last month, I was tanking normal VP on my DK with my friend healing. The Warrior in our group continuously charged as I pulled, and rarely let me get a nice cluster for DnD/Pestilence/Blood Boil/all that jazz before hitting his winstorm button. Needless to say, he died several times, but the time that relates to this topic is the Storm Dragon after the four Empyrean Assassins.
As soon as the last one dropped, he said "GO" with me at around half health and having freshly spent a rune on Bone Shield, the healer at around a third mana and drinking, and the only competent DPS in the group completely OOM and drinking. I ate some food to full health, turned off running, and walked to the dragon. He charged the dragon before I even hit him, and somehow managed to die while fighting it in the healing circle.

And to the rest of you scoffing at the suggestion that people actually act HUMANE in a game, shame on you. I really, truly hope that you're just internet tough guys, and not the total sociopaths you try to make yourselves out to be.
Nope, I'm a pretty big d-bag all around. RL and in-game, probably a bigger one in RL though.
I do the hard work no one else wants to, and take the rewards they want for their easier jobs.
They don't like it? Sucks to be them.
Well, if I couldn't find the capacity to find any joy in real life, I guess I would work real hard at being miserable too...might as well be good at something.
But in WoW too?...it's a make believe world where you can be anything you like and even there you can't imagine yourself being anything else but a d-bag. O.o
But don't worry, I'm sure there is even a bigger d-bag then you in the game and then you become "them"
peace

Not wanna cause frustration but this is your own experience.
Oh no, no frustration at all. I understand what you're saying, but I wasn't trying to say that we should always be perfectly polite to every single person we meet. We should absolutely stand up for ourselves (or our friends) and we shouldn't have to take abuse from some random dork on the internet.
That's completely different than acting like an ass or a tough guy just because the internet provides a veil of anonymity or because you're suffering some delusion that you're better than everyone else and you're entitled to whatever you want.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that you got kicked over saying one word. If a vote kick would have popped up on me, I would have said no. I only kick people if they are afk or repeatedly needing things that they clearly don't need. Personally, I think the vote kick option should still be in developement because there seems to be a lot of loopholes still. I guess It would not be as bad if dps/heals got the same que time as tanksw -
As far as me, when I run a pug group instance, I really don't ever talk. I just do my job, need items that are a benefit and upgrade to my class and then leave. In this way, I've almost never been kicked because what are they going to kick me for? Not talking? I mean, of course if someone asks me a question I respond, but other than that - I keep pretty quiet.
