In my most recent post my guild got a new prot paladin, so I went ret so we'd not have too many tanks.<br /><br />@Leah: You're completely right. I really should have placed more emphasis on how that was a flaw. I'm not always as clear as I wish I was. :(Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-83389677520925469642009-06-17T04:10:17.874-05:002009-06-17T04:10:17.874-05:00interesting analysis :) according to it, I'm ...interesting analysis :) according to it, I'm pretty much useless to the world, because I'm one of those self-sufficient self sustainable folks. I can craft or farm whatever I may possibly need, so the only time I add anything to the market is when I'm too short on time to do something myself or when I need to purchase something I cannot craft (like epic flying skill - that's pretty much the only time I start to actively sell things on AH). (though I play all three roles across several characters, so i can fill whatever need is there at the time, but I add barely anything to the economy)<br /><br />the thing is - I do not believe that there's anything wrong with that, or that being self sustainable is the same as being a net loss. a person who gives nothing but also takes nothing might not be productive in terms of society, but they are also not a drain. they simply make no difference in an overall picture. people who are not productive in addition to not being self sustainable - are a drain that forces others to be more productive then they should/want to be, in order to compensate for it.<br /><br />in terms of wow - think of it as someone who predominantly soloes vs someone who joins groups but has to be carried at best, causes wipes at worse, simple because they are the opposite of productive. the first might not be making your life better, but they are not hurting your game play either. Second however... <br /><br />So putting both types into the same category is IMO very much wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-20376645503248083622009-06-14T11:56:21.960-05:002009-06-14T11:56:21.960-05:00Healers and tanks get hurt very badly indeed when ...Healers and tanks get hurt very badly indeed when there are too many healers or tanks. <br /><br />You see this a lot in people who want to raid tank and can't find spots in guilds for it. They have to settle for a job they didn't really want instead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
