Rant in HoL

This is a rant post. (You had been warned)

Fail... again.. and again

Last Tuesday, I was running a Hall of Lightning with a PuG

Our team was cutting through the mob,
And eager to revenge for Thorium.

The Tank was doing a decent job; the dpsers were doing a nice job as well…
Everything was fine, except the healer was doing nothing,
Not even a single heal was tossed to the group.

Desperately for their ally to fill up their green bar,
They wait and wait, but none of the prayer had a respond…
And the group was slaughtered by the angry boss again and again…

Was the healer pissed off by the group?
Oh, wait; I was the restro shaman…

I was the healer…

Why I would do that to my group mates, Isn’t I a horrible person to do that?
What was I doing?

Because I was staring the god damn loading screen
When my client keep dc me!

This is the most horrible dc happened to me…
(The last on is dc when we’re fighting Thaddius in Naxx)

The most horrible part is…
When I cast Res, I dc…

When we start aggro the boss, I dc…
Not a moment before, but by the time the boss is aggro ed

Last Act

The last sequence of the Hall of Lightning that night
1. Tank asked if I am okay
2. I reply “Okay So far”
3. He pull
4. I dc
5. Loading screen
6. Bodies on ground…

The group found a replacement for my position,
After apologies, I leave the group…
With guilty and emptiness… (Not very goblin of me on this)

As a Geek

The DC wave had stroked Larisa, Gnomeaggedon,
And now its Aggro table turned to me

I would convinced myself that this isn’t my fault
(It’s the goddamn computer/patch/software)

But as a computer geek myself, I find that unacceptable.
I already did some virus scanning and system config,
Clean up the dust inside, double checked every cable.
I even installed a new network card

Finger Crossed

Now
I removed my WTF (Who on earth in Blizzard think up this name anyway?),
WDB folder and Add-on now…

Update: it didn’t ruin my first raid, hopefully it had go away now….
