Entering into the druid forum community is a rough experience at first. Nearly every long time poster here has been short with others, just a forum going fact of life. You just need a
thick hide
and some perseverance and it suddenly becomes a rewarding place to be.
To be fair to the long time posters, it's often because it's the eighth, ninth or six hundredth time they're answering any given question.
And while wowhead's forum search is kind of a PoS, many of the questions could be answered with just a bit of research back through the forums.
No doubt.

yea well no offense but nobody is holding a gun to your head and saying "post now". by the time most of the "elite" posters chimed in this thread was already wrapped up. so at that point its just a nerd rage/post count thing.
also remember a lot of people dont grasp class mechanics as quickly as others, especially if its their first time playing, or havent played it in months. and some people just like to ask a question for reassurance.
others are too lazy to backlog forums looking for one answer, or just didnt think of it.

yes well him not knowing (or simply mistyping) an attack name was pretty unimportant seeing as i understood the op well enough to provide a decent answer.
aandra would have seemed less like a d1ck if he didnt reply after the thread was already answered sufficiently. thats my take on it.
oh btw i think you nailed it with the "countless pages" part. some people are too lazy to filter through thousands of threads to see if a similar question is answered, when he could make a quick topic and have it answered fairly quickly and painlessly. i had no problem helping him out, if you guys get so angry...just inner nerd rage, close the page, and leave someone like me to try and help.
and @ the op if you're still checking this: at your level range you should probably pounce, mangle, shred (if you have the right energy regen or ooc). that'll give you 3-5 CP depending on crits and you can either FB to finish or just auto attack the last lil bit of hp/mangle it quickly. the mobs youre facing shouldnt have a ton of hp.
just remember only rip on long fights, at 5 cp. keep up mangle and rake. if its a super long boss fight for some reason you can get 5 cp, rip, then keep up rake while shredding to 5 and FB, then reapply rip. its like a lvl 80 rotation, only keeping up rip and FBing in place of savage roaring. but no regular mob (heck no elite or even dungeon boss) should really live long enough for a rotation like that.
/thread imo

This right here...
Why should we reward laziness when we have either sufficiently answered the question in question recently or have provided a resource for this information to be obtained from. If we respond in a less then respectful manner it is more because it is disrespectful of the time we have put forth to bring this information into the forefront..
It's not a personal attack. Everyone tends to get the exact same treatment. Hell, if I posted asking for information about the feral spec and had done no research before hand, I'd get hit in the exact same manner... The only difference being that I would expect nothing less from them because of the above stated reasoning. It's a community every one of us is different and everyone of us responds to things in a different way. But even the "grumpy" ones are listened to by all because they do indeed know what they are doing.

Your talking to someone who spent 2 days straight, researching Hunters and Druids before i even created a character on WoW! I never ask for help unless i cant find the answer myself. Its how ive been in life and i stand by it.
If you read my original post you'd see that i HAVE asked people and researched. All my research told me FB was worse than Rip. Posting a quick thread which, without people doing that, a forum WOULD DIE as posting threads is the whole point of a frigging
FORUM
, quickly told me all my research was for level 80 characters and not for me while leveling. It was quick and painless until the
elites
came along.
I wish you could just lock your own threads, i would have locked it when i had my question answered and not given the elitist asshats a stage to garner the attention that they crave. And with this post im not checking this thread anymore.

Holy mother of Cenarius, guys, seriously WHAT THE F**K is wrong with you? I simply made a little harsh joke and suddenly a huge argument spawned.
Really, it was not about the fact that he knew the names of the abilities or not. Not even abuot the fact that he (the OP) had actually answered his own questions but was probably just looking for some confirmation. I gave him an answer, other have as well.
Butthurt idiots like those barging in to "defend" the "helpless newbie" that got "attacked" by some "nolifer elitist ***" are just that - idiots. I really fail to understand *why* must they begin to agitate like headless chicken flapping their wings and legs frantically every time someone makes a joke that's a bit harsh. Geez... GTFO if you don't have anything useful to add to the topic itself. Tards.
***by the way,
Mr. Billop
, notice my signature - and I wasn't a nolifer even when I was playing - you know, there is a difference between playing all day like some brainless zombie and playing for just a few hours per week on raids but actually using my brain, you dumbass - and yes, this time I *really* mean it when I call you this way because you obviously don't seem to grasp the idea that I've mentioned in the beginning)
PS: like it's been said I am usually nice. And I don't need to justify this post to anyone. You like it, fine. You don't, GTFO. Sometimes I do get &*!@ed off by this kind of idiots. INB4 this post probably gets deleted by a moderator...
