(ps: sorry, but i've just had the privilege of grouping up with 5 wammos today. i deserve to vent a little bit.)
There are several perfectly good reasons to run a wammo. For example, purge signet or mending touch :P

Unfortunately, 9/10 wammos are /Mo for mending and/or healing breeze. >.>

If I could give one rule to live this game by it would be to not take it too seriously.

And Zinger, lay off the guy, he's just trying to help out the community.

QFT....
To the OP; thanks for sharing this; it might make the game community a little more tolerant of each other, which is always a good thing.

Zinger, lay off the coffee, and read the statements the OP wrote before listing the "rules". In NO way do you see ANYTHING that states that these are rules that everyone MUST follow; the OP was SHARING something with the community with the "HOPES" that SOMEONE might find it useful. Read it again, and take the "rules" in the "Spirit" that they are given, if you can. If it helps, think of them as "personal guidelines", since the OP wrote them for him/herself, and thought to share them with the community.
Try looking at the glass as "half-full" sometimes, rather than "half-empty" all the tme.

Haha... I doubt anyone even bothered reading the first page

If they had, they'd realise Zinger didn't target the OP, he made significant change and commented each rule by rule, according to his opinion. How is that a threat to the OP? As a matter of fact, I think this is a good debate. In a debate, there is more then one side... just because someone doesn't share the OP's thoughts doesn't make him a negative person. Get that straight.

You guys lay off Zinger, your being hypocrits. As of now, I haven't seen any reason to act rude, we're all expressing differents point of views, and respect each and everyones right to their say, thank you.

I don't mind supporting someone who is getting decimated with negative remarks from others. Equality is a value I cherish.

Quoted for irony. Atleast my post was well-mannered, not ad hominem...

First off, follow your own advice about the coffee.

Second, I'm not critizing the motives behind the "rules," I'm critizing the list itself. Do I find it bad that the list was posted? No, it adds to community. Do I disagree with the list? Yes. It's a democracy, I have the right of freedom of speech. The list is based on naive speculation; I added the objective reality.

I may see the glass as half-empty, but in the end, it's the same amount of water. Although I love the irony in "YOU NEED TO EXPRESS OPTIMISM, IDIOT."

zinger, I agree with pretty much everything you have said except for this. what about those people who use unique builds that aren't really builds, just skills they think have served them well for the past months of playing? Who don't succumb to pre-set builds that are listed and used by hundreds/thousands of other players? (at least not very often) Those people like me?

Otherwise, the list had a couple decent points but will NEVER be implemented and will NEVER be read or used by even 1% of the GW population. I'm all up for contributing to the community but this was pointless.

I said "end-game," in actual difficult missions, like Gate of Madness and Urgoz's Warren. Those require some team cohesion. I'm sorry, but W/Mos with Mending don't usually make it past the first two mobs.

"Unique," in most cases, is just a false juxtaposition of a "really bad build."

Before then, since PvE is pathetically easy, I don't mind helping people with whatever build.
