pvp and haters

[zenga]

... anyone should be able to play the game the way they want to as long as they dont offend others or cheat. People that fail to meet this expectation should find something else to spend their time on - its not right for one unkind person to have fun at the expense of other innocent and normal behaving people.t.

People can play the game the way they want to, as long as they play it solo. WoW has certain mechanics that require you not to play the way you want while in group: their are roles and objectives. I'll give examples:

- the objective of a quest is to complete it, and take your reward
- the objective of an instance/raid is fight your way up to a boss and kill it
- the objective of a battleground is to win it, by capping flags, towers, and kill enemies

Thus:

- a tank should keep the mobs off the party members and thus not decide to dps instead of tanking, just like a healer is supposed to heal and not tank or dps, if you decide otherwise because you play the way you want to, you screw other people up
- if you decide to just do whatever you want in a bg, instead of trying to go for the objectives (cap flag, tower, ...) then you ignore the very basic mechanics of the game, and you screw it up for others

For both mechanics / roles there is gear, spells and stats. And for each talent spec / class there is a right (+excellent) and wrong (+terrible) way to do it. If you decide just to ignore all that and play the way you want in a group, then you screw it up for others. If others in this group tell you that you are doing something wrong (and due to that give them a worse time), the only sensible thing to do is listen to it, consider it and see how you can fill your role in that group better next time.

And as a boxer your responsibility in a group is even bigger. But I think that's been explained enough in this topic. If you want to ignore certain facts and blame others for criticizing, and rather put the focus on how they say something rather than on what they are saying, I believe this discussion is kinda pointless.
