There have been times when a wipe was completely my fault and I admit that to the party immediately. In fact, I have an extreme amount of patience. If I find the group to be polite, I don't mind wiping on the same boss over and over until the group gets it. It's part of learning. But it's the elitist idiots living in their parents' basement bossing everybody around that I just simply can't handle. Oh yeah, I agree.

It's all to easy to blame the healer - some people are under the impression that just because there is a healer in the group, that automatically grants them invincibility and immortality. Not so. Understand that a healer will work with you, not for you, so if there is a wipe, it would help to reassess what you were doing wrong than insult, berate, and piss off your healer. That's a sure way to die. Granted, there are times when it is the healer's fault for a wipe, but NOT ALL THE TIME! I'm a priest, not a proctologist. Enjoy the long corpse run.
