Random Hellfire Ramparts run. I'm Falkor. The DK tank has rez sickness, is spec'ed Unholy, and is barely doing anything during the run. Told my roommate what was going on, and he asked the question in the screenshot (forgot to type "island") and at the same exact time the DK typed his comment.

It was hilarious.

Rest of the group got really mean at the tank, called the kid names I can't type here, and were absolutely horrible. I sent him a whisper telling him not to take it personally, randoms sometimes have mean people, just enjoy the game, and directed him to wowhead.com to learn more about playing the game.

I then left the group, cause you know, we wouldn't have accomplished much.

The comment was just too funny, had to share.

There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.

Unfortunately this.

Not fair to the other players.

NOT fair to the kid.

The last comment is quite comical. Even though I currently play Alliance.

Everyone knows that small kids should be herbing/farming 16 hours a day to earn their keep.

PS: Unstruck, that was kind of you to take time to encourage and educate. A lot of players wouldn't.

Definitely a failure on the parents there.

However... your party was guilty of not asking earlier and then perhaps guiding him on the fact that he wasn't really tanking.

Is that how long it took to ask why you guys were getting run over the coals? A bad tank is immediately obvious. One that was blowing chunks that badly should have been an indicator that something wasn't quite right.
