    The thing that bothers me the most about these encounters with utter retards is that these people are real. They live somewhere in the world, go to work, drive their cars, etc. How do they even accomplish those tasks if they can't follow simple instructions in a video game? It astonishes me at how stupid people are in WoW, I really wonder how they function in real life without professional help or mental support.

    Amazing.
    The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
    And the circling is worth it,
    Finding beauty in the
    dissonance

    Consider that some folks have a very hard time with situational awareness. Others have a cognitive block in understanding the concept of a virtual avatar. The same folks who suck at video games would also probably make terrible aircraft pilots. My mother can't think in cardinal directions to save her life, yet we got along fairly well.

    Point being, there are other considerations.

    To me, it's the same thing as using proper grammar when posting to web forums. I've heard the excuse, over and over, how that particular person was just posting a quick message and doesn't want to think too hard about grammar, as their job during the day has something-or-other to do with grammar or spell checking.

    If you really have to think that hard about grammar, then you are a moron. Period.

    Same thing with playing WoW. I bet there are a lot of people who use the excuse that it is just a game, and they want to have fun and not worry too much about thinking, hence their fail-play. I guess they find it fun to die and run back to the instance. It really is NOT that hard to play WoW. That's why I multibox - at least it is a challenge (post-WOTLK anyways).
