Um, ramparts is a level 60 instance, and generally the first instance that
anyone does upon entering the outlands. It's not even vaguely close to the
endgame, even on heroic mode.

that point to be LEARNING HOW TO PLAY YOUR CLASS IN AN INSTANCE.

It is a good point though - if people are constantly telling someone they
suck, and even their friends admit they're a wipe magnet, maybe they suck?
Don't laugh at it, learn to play the game.

Ok, you can cut someone slack if they just respec'd - different talents take
some getting used to. But folks who skip instances in order to solo grind

Amen to that! Just about every paladin tank is a newbie to it, it's amazing
that it works as well as it does.

An admirable thought. Personally, I prefer politeness to anger in R/L as
well as in WoW. But I've learned not all folks have a similar nature. I've
especially learned not to expect much from "teens with confidence issues".
In my experience, they are more likely to be the offenders than they are to
be the victims.

Or, they're just frustrated that someone who doesn't know how to play has
wiped their group multiple times. If I did that, I'd be saying "*I* suck".
In fact I have done exactly that when stinking up the joint after a respec. *
