PuG Rules: A Random Selection
PuG Rule #5987
In a low level instance, everyone who has a level 80 main will find some way to let the entire group know. Most will strive to be at least somewhat natural about it (example: "Let's chain pull. I have an Ulduar raid in 40 minutes.") but, inevitably, someone will lack that kind of verbal finesse (example: "My main is 80, haha!" "How many 80's do u got?" "U should give me lead cuz my main is 80 and that makes me better than u nubs, lul.").
PuG Rule #3249
The player who is crying the loudest about a wipe is probably responsible for it.
PuG Rule #7410
The rogue will die. Always.
PuG Rule #7411
Said rogue (see Rule #7410) will inevitably blame the healers — even if they happened to precede the rogue in death because he was tail-swiped into whelps that the paladin off-tank couldn't be troubled to pick up. ("Run to me!" the failadin exclaimed, conveniently forgetting that he has run-speed on his boots and an AoE taunt. Clearly, protection DPS > protecting the healers.)

This is just a random selection. There are many, many more.

You have at least 7411 rules? O.O
lordofthefries´s last blog ..lordofthefries: @warcraft re: #dailywow Probably… that whole Belf warlock thing doesn’t work. His casting animation looks like the freaking disco queen.

You don’t? O.O

LOL @ #7410
You should split that into #7410a for rogues, and #7410b for warriors. Damn bladestorm/whirlwinding DPS warriors who manage to do that before I can even hit a mob.

Ah, rogues, I have to admit even us rogues are so familiar with our paper-thin armor and cleave magnet. I swear, it has to be a cruel joke by the devs. Sure, we have great longetivity when soloing, or even in pvp, due to our wide assortment of CCs, but really, against a boss, that wont even give you 2 seconds. Maybe thats why I have so many alts…
But yeah, 99% of rogues -will- die.
Another rule would be that the lock will pull aggro.
or the hunter will multishot the CCs…then FD to give the healer new friends.

PuG Rule #2876
The longer it takes you to fill your last spot, the more likely it is that the person who fills it will leave 10 minutes in.
October 19th, 2009 - 20:48
I think you’re right about that one. I left after what, 3 attempts?

Just a quick clarification:
Paladin tanks do not have an AE taunt, they have a single target taunt and one that will taunt up to three mobs off of ONE person.
This can cause some confusion as it is subtly different from the way warrior/druid AE taunts work.

Good rogues don’t die. But then good rogues rarely PuG…
I don’t think I’ve ever blamed a healer for my death XD
