Just thot id vent a bit... Its not like i like to heal anyway, i find with the lack of exp its... counter productive... so when i do decide to heal, and people ask to leave the healer shrines, u really should leave the friggin healer the shrines, cause hes probably alot like me, sittin in front of his laptop pissed that hes gotta heal anyway, and even more pissed when someones dense enough to roll on everything that drops, AFTER being asked not to.

So apologies to dagzz... cause i was down to grind it out hard tonight. Whoever that was that kept rollin really pushed a button of mine or somethin cause it set me off. lol.
Ill probably be back on in a bit.. im just gunna go have a "smoke" and relax for a few,

Very few people besides maybe Justin truely enjoy healing.  I view it as a chore and just do it for the needs of the group.  Try healing as a Warlock and some noob ass mage is casting doing 200 crits when I was doing 800 crits.....talk about getting pissed.  IMO with the situation u described you just say SEC.....then say if you dont leave shrines for healer then no heals.  You either leave the group at point (close your eyes Duke) or you stop healing the little bastard that keeps taking your shrines....die little bastard die!!!!!!!  Just kidding but it was fun to type.  I have never purposely let someone die (fingers crossed).  We in AB TRY to be gm'd but sometimes people push our buttons and deserve TO DIE!!!!

All kidding aside, you did the right thing to leave the group.  If the healer cant get shrines and some noob is taking them just remove yourself from the situation - like you did.  The LS community is very small and we all kind of know eachother and our rep is bigger than we are.  If you are well mannered you will be invited to games not just to fill a spot but because the group values YOU and your commitment to the game.  Like I said in previous posts in this or other forums....you have to have a reason that you like to play this game....I play b/c I like the people that LS....although we dont really know eachother in RL I feel like i know people like James84, Nev, Jlhromeo, Sarah, Duke, Justin, Cam/Bob, Doug, etc....list too long but I consider those people rl friends even though the only one i have met in RL is Justin.  GP's and gear are fun but if you arent having fun just leave the run IMO....climbing and not having fun is not fun at all.

A good example of fun is the climb we had tonight from lvl 24....it was me, Duke, Cam, Doug and Konane.  Konane and i got into a little disagreement the other night about one of our members not doing enough dmg....well i got pissed and left at lvl 68 to prove a point.  I had to grind it to 71 with this un-named guildy but we got there.  Konane apologized and we had a kicka$$ run and we had FUN.  I guess my point is just remember the person that took your shrines and stear clear to them in the future.

Off to fish some then ISO of bed.

I totally agree with the points here. Most of the time I find myself healing in catas, whether I feel like it or not. I too get pissed as fuck when someone grabs the meaty, modded drops, that obviously have no resale value, and they are not even casting. Usually asking them to stop picking up obvious shriners works, but there are a few exceptions, that cannot be fucked/don't give a fuck. When that happens I try as grin and bare it for as long as possible, but there have been a few cases where I got so pissed that I just left and grinded out the rest of the climb. I did refuse to heal someone once, and let him/her die, but I felt terrible afterwards, and I totally agree, the best solution is to just leave and rage in your own solo cata.

Hi All...

@ quoted.

I just stay in game... pick what I can... just me.
When healing, learn the dmg that individual can take... then let their life drop to a certain point before healing them... but only heal 2x to bring their life up a bit.
This way they cry out for healing, then you tell them: "Leave me the shrines if you want to be healed more"

Honestly, they learn to adjust.
