I have noticed this before, but more often now that I pug a lot - there are people who do amazing dps/healing/tanking, but suck horribly despite this. There are two main reasons that they suck - not paying attention/listening, and lack of mobility.

They can even be in tier 6 because most high end guilds will tolerate a certain % of people who "always stand in the fire, lol" and who need to be told exactly what they have to do.

You will notice these people...

5. Downing Moroes for the first time
6. Getting my shield from Gruul
7. Completing my nature and frost resist sets
8. Downing Vashj
9. Spending around 400 badges as soon as the new badge gear came out...

I tried Age of Conan - I think I gave it a fair chance and tried different character classes, leveled past 40 etc. I really wanted to like it, but it just isn't the game for me. I'm not going into all the reasons, it just stopped being fun at some point.

I am really enjoying wow again after the break - I may even join a late-night raiding guild and get back into raiding. :-)
