Faith in Humanity

I had the day off today and my idea was I’d try to get in a full run of 25 man Naxx and actually see the whole dungeon. I’ve had this plan a few times and it hasn’t worked out yet
I’ll start off on a light note
I was cleaning out the bank some more and found a bunch of those toothpicks from the Halloween event. I took them out and just played with them through out the day to get rid of them. I discovered something I never noticed before, or they got bugged cause I could swear they didn’t do that before. The sparkle is no where near my mouth (admittedly covered by my beard) would be. It is smack dab in the middle of my nose! Just a bit disturbing
This Naxx run is the one I should have never gone on, I should have trusted my instincts from the begining. The first indicator was the raid leader who was trying to invite me was on my ignore list. I think it was because he had previously kept bugging me some time in the past to do Naxx from random tells. I thought well maybe I shouldn’t hold that against him. So after getting tells from other people in the raid I joined.
This raid had TONS of Priests, I have never seen so many Priests, and throughout the ordeal we actually kept getting more Priests. Priests were apparently the only healers on. The DPS in this raid was good, I mean we had at least 10 people who were pulling 3-5k dps no problem. The healing was Horrible, and the tanking was sub-par. So the problems I usually have were reversed, and it made things go just as bad
We had between 5-6 healers during the raid, but all the healing was being done by 3 of us. There was a ret pally in the raid who had done more over all healing than some of the healers.
Ok so I got stuck with a bunch of horrible players, if this wasn’t bad enough they were also horrible people! Just listening to them in vent made me sick. There was a woman (one of the horrible healers) who was always going afk. A conversation got started when she said let her know when we are pulling and she will stop feeding her kid. I was like WoW, a few people cringed most laughed. Then a conversation got started between her and a few other “parents” about what OTC drugs work best to put your kid to sleep. She was saying benadryl, another guy was saying NyQuil, and then they got into a list of different kids of alcohol to use. I was blown away on what horrible people they were. Then later someone said something about duct ape in jest ( I hope ) and she said her husband won’t let her, but she followed with “but he is alloud to hang them on the wall”. Oh and she had to go on smoke breaks too, so ya amazing lady :\
In the end a battle broke out between a bunch of them in vent where they were cussing each other out all of the place. The main tank that had left came back into vent to mock everyone and it was quickly getting ridiculous. I left shortly after we wiped to North the Plaguebringer for the 6th time. That guy is a bag of loot and we couldn’t kill him. The mages had apparently never decursed anyone before, and then after we finally got them to do that right the off-tanks we had couldn’t control the adds. It was so horrible I must say I lost a little faith in Humanity.
After I finished that disaster I did the rest of my Dailies for the evening and looked for a normal Heroic run to do. I ended up joining this group and doing Heroic UP, UK and HoL. They were a great bunch of people, good players, and we did real well with no wiping. They got me to my achievements of finishing off my Northrend Factions, and getting my 250 Emblem of Heroism achievements.
I did end the night on a low note, and drug poor Inien into it. Someone wanted to do H VH so I join, our tank goes LD just before the first boss, the water guy…We wipe of course. The DK says he can tank he has taking gear, I’m not sure but I take his word for it. I grab Inien and we give it a go but he was just too squishy, not to mention he didn’t appear to know what he is doing. We managed to kill the first boss but everyone died but the fury warrior and when we got back in we didn’t get to loot so nothing gained from all that. Lame ending for the night though
