... always have the most drama around them?
Someone buys an account and without fail one of the following always happens:
* Their alleged friend or family member performs some dishonorable act. Thievery, killstealing, whatever.
* They guild jump like mad
* They seldom last more than a few months
* If they're in your guild, they b***h more than normal on raids
And last but not least:
* There is mass confusion as they run 1 account, then another, then back to the original, but wait someone else is playing the original now, no no now this is THE original Soandso, no, now it is his friend, no now it's the guy he roomed with, no , wait, it's someone else.
I have 2 suggestions for all guilds (not that anyone will heed them ): Age requirement and non-ebayed requirement.

Age has nothing at all to do with anything you described above. I know a lot of 15-18 year olds who are more mature and down-to-earth than some whiny ass psycho b*****s (that I regrettably also know) of 35 and above, with no sense of reality whatsoever.

This is true. An age limit was something I was interested in implementing but quickly came to realize that most of the major problems are started by 20-30 somethings. Kids can make foolish mistakes, but most are too dumb to get away with it and/or don't have the attention span to stick around.

Same goes for a******s that say "are you taunting?" to warriors. OMG NO I WOULD NEVER THINK TO DO THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL THING THAT A WARRIOR LEARNS TO DO FROM LEVEL 1 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE TIP. Now if you'll just stand still for a sec I'll go ahead and rip off your head and shit down your throat.
I think I'm going to make a hotkey that says "I AM HITTING MY TAUNT KEY NOW, THANK YOU XXXXX FOR THE CLEVER IDEA!!!!" and start mashing it every 6 seconds after somebody asks if I am taunting.

Mainly refering to high level encounters without using hate generating procs etc. I don't doubt there isn't times its not needed but definitely a skill worth using. Dang sure doesn't hurt to mash it every 6 seconds.

A paladin never needs to taunt.
A warrior can get by without using taunt, but that doesn't mean it's a smart thing to do.
Mashing it every 6 seconds is a waste. If you have aggro pressing taunt doesn't do anything.
It's very obvious from his posts on the board that Minion hasn't played much in a while.

Regardless my statement was an exageration, Taunt isn't worthless but it's no where near as good as it could be which is why in most cases a shadowknight or paladin is a far better tank choice for a casual group. Due to the simple fact that in comparisson, warriors can't hold agro for p**s.

That is true. They did pretty much double the effectiveness of taunt when PoP came out. It used to work about 1 in 6 times, now it's more like 1 in 3. You only need to visit http://steelwarrior.xwarzone.com if you want to get in contact with a bunch of people that agree with your assessment of pal/sk vs warrior in exp groups and are pretty damn p****d off about it .
