During the raids focus on the fight instead of the freaking useless achievements!!!!!!!!!
 
As it gets us killed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
As that happend tonight a few times.. A few people focussing on a bloody achievement instead of focussing on the fight itself.. And that got us killed...
 
So sod off with your freaking achievement hunting and just get the job done!
 
 
/rant over....
 
Hope some woke up now!

terribly sorry but when you have a macro you push with you mouse and use abilitys with your keybord you can easily do it but it requires focus

some can handle others cant. thats all i have to say

Deminion

ye, sorry i tried it to, had the macro lying around, but since i didn't do it properly it's been thrown away. Never to be done again.

I do agree with Ice on this one..no achievements untill Boss is on Farm. then you dont have to focus cos it comes naturaly giving you time to focus on the achievement.
 
wich achievement are we talking about anyways?
Gijs lvl70 Dwarf Warrior (prot)
Member of Silver Oak Guardians
 
Alternate characters:
Octain lvl70 Night-elf Druid (resto)
Gonzalez lvl70 Human Warlock (Affliction)
Mzltof lvl70 Human Mage (Fire)
Goodwill lvl70 Night-elf Hunter (BM)

Azunai

or Garrit, or Torgen. Also, Livestream.

Deminion

and as i have found out, it's not to be done in P1, but in P2.
but anyways, will wait till we actually have done her/him/it a couple of times

Drakelin

Its to /kiss sara while she is angry with you and she doesnt become that untill phase 2

Quoting the truth

yes can only agree lets please keep the achievement for another kill, lets use our focus 100% on the kill no matter what.

Deminion

i'll admit i did it, but not until more than 50% of the raid was dead, and i was almost dead anyway. kept my head focused on the raid all the time. And btw, it never crossed my mind, until others started on it.

In general I agree with Ice's post (but I suppose after reading what I have to say next, no one's going to remember this first sentence).

However, in this case:

I think it's hypocrisy to say it's a qft when you've done it yourself tbh. Isn't that a bit too much...? People were doing that achievement when it was a certain wipe and neither of those who did it stalled the the next attempt. Taking into consideration the amount "well said" whispers I had, I suppose there are more feeling similarly.

Is it maybe time to focus on more acute raiding problems like what flasks were used (or the absence!), how much time is spent chatting in the general channel whilst raiding, why people don't know the tactics which in turn makes each attempt take forever to start etc etc?

Stop acting on this kind of details when we yet have major issues to deal with. It's ticking me off.

i know i did it adn i would agree on not doing it in the middle of a try but i was dead (guardian spirit) and over half the raid was dead, i knew it was a wipe and not before i know it was a wipe i did it, was dead anyway had a few sec left on the spirit so why shouldnt i, it wasnt anything i planned to do i just saw it that second and thought it would be a good time,

so im sorry if i dont seem to follow you as far as i see why shouldnt the raiders do the achive also when the officers have? theres no justice in that and i did my part and didnt slack even thinking i had major backpain the whole night!!!!

so i guess i can say i agree with mezz but now you have my full story/oppinion

Tbh mate you should not be ticked of by leaders saying it, its a matter of repsect towards the decision of not doing it. if there are other problems with flask and absence etc then its fine to come with input to leaders but it has nothing to do with this matter.
All we ask is not to do it it dont matter how easy it is to do or that others did it, all in all its only one person pushing the button.

Limps

please there are no need for drama, if some officers did the achievement then its their bad and i agree not very smart, but it cant be changed now and we do need to focus on what important and this achievement is not. lets keep focus on a great raid night we had, and not making this a bigger deal then it is.

and there are no rule that says officers are allowed it, same rules for all.

Mezzanine

I respect the leaders fully, be so sure, when there's a valid reason. To tell you the truth I was even linked a good macro to complete this particular achievement by one of the leading officers, but refrained to go on with it when it became such a fuss.

What do you call such a double standard?
