Every once in a while I find myself sharing dialogue between my own toons in my head when they break one of these rules.

Tank: "stupid ass mage at least let me get TO the boss before you attack"
Mage1: "not my fault our keys are bound together l2 avenger's shield while running in"
Tank: "You should stand farther back this boss cleaves"
Mage1: "The heals are macro'd might as well make use of em"
Priest: "stupid mages"
*tank moves boss away*
Tank: "speaking of mages, why isn't mage2 casting"
Mage3: "He's been running into the wall over there this whole fight"
Mage2: "Sorry, my interact with target glitched again"
Priest: "stupid mages"
*I press IWT to move my idiot mage back to the boss*
*boss cleaves everyone*
*mage1 dies*
*mage3 dies*
Mage2: "HAHA, now who's doin the dps"
Priest: "stupid mages"
