People will always HATE the GREAT!

I had a guy tell me last night that I was taking up space in the BG for 3 other people and that the only reason I was doing good was because I had four people following me around. Well I only have 4 shammies so this guy pegged the stupid meter (1 leading, 3 folllowing >.<) Did I point out how great I was? Did I tell him you was an F'n Moron? Did I report him? No. WHY????? Because my performance on all four of my shammies in DMG done, HKs, and Killing blows was greater than anybody else in that BG. Well Im sure we all know that its all good and dandy but while your gearing up, this isn't always the case, how then do we deal with these haters?

My Solution. Spammed at the 45s, and 15s warning.

/bg Before you ask. Yes there are Four Elektrics. (Four accounts, Different names = look closer).
/bg We run a legitimate setup with absolutely NO BOTs or HACKs.
/bg Hate me or love me but please dont follow me. Haters please see /1 in the Barrens (tell Chuck I said Hi!).
/bg After your jaw drops in awe, if you'd like learn more about how at www.dual-boxing.com

Enivitably somebody immediately starts to talk trash but the rest of the people in the BG usually back me up. They stop me from being harrassed and make the hater the hated. I think the Macro has a lot with people recognizing my Shaman Box team. And since I win about 90% of the BGs I enter, I am usually greated with /clap and /cheers as soon as people see the warning. I also get more whispers asking who Chuck is than hate.

Macros like these are priceless. I think the biggest reason and frustration with the hate chat is that we feel like we have to respond. And after you run across the 1,000,001 person who asks you about lose it! A simple macro does wonders in educating and allowing you to play more. As for the alliance, I usually flag and wait for them to do something stupid.

Just my 2 cents.

Cheers,
