2 things really.
People going off their nut when someone tries to help them because they have played the class that person is playing for multiple years (and granted they were 82 at the time I think its a fair assumption when I don't see them doing some little tricks i've learnt in my time that sharing the advice wouldn't hurt) and then start "trying" to abuse their powers as (healer in this case) by refusing to heal me (on my hunter, so I can't even self heal /sigh) when I accidentally cocked up the jump in Stonecore. So politely I asked for a heal and got the reply "I'm not healing you until you apologize to me for telling me how to play my class..." so with that I sent the rest of the group a quick whisper tell them to head for the entrance now, hit misdirect on the healer and sent 2 rock giants and 8 flayers flying their way. (I don't normally like to @#$% over other people but when a healer refuses to heal me because I simply offered them advice they can shove it i'll happily take my repair bill if there is even a slight chance they will learn sometimes peoples advice can be helpful.
The other thing that annoys the hell out of me is when dk's decide to pop army of the dead when i'm dpsing on my feral druid and then start posting recount at the end of the fight going "hurr the rogue and feral suck they only did 8k dps each while the boss was spinning like a whirly gig but I did 9k (with all my cooldowns rocking)... I is so 1337" Seriously wish dk's could glyph for no taunt on their army its just annoying and serves a useful purpose maybe 1 in every 100 times its used.

It just applies to the tank now instead of you. :P
Glad we agree on that point :D How to react to such a situation...oh well, I guess everybody decides that for themselves.
Man, this makes me wanna pug ZA/ZG again tonight, see what kidna of people I encounter......
Which reminds me of some mage last night in ZG hc on mr Jin'do.
Group: when he does "whatever the ability was called", all get into the deadzone!
Mage: ok
Group: that's the green thing he drops
Mage: ok
Attempt one: mage dies outside of deadzone
Attempt two: mage dies outside of deadzone
Attempt three: mage dies outside of deadzone
hihi

DPS that seem to think i automatically have aggro...on the mobs two pulls futher on than i am. Yes, i am good. No, i am not psychic.
Healers that don't realise that somethings just HURT
Tanks that believe you will automatically cc what they want without telling you what that is. Also tanks that don't give me a chance to sap before pulling then wonder why i didn't sap them.
And most of all...people who don't know as much as they think they do. That goes for more than WoW

Healers that let me die when they're at full mana, DPS who can't pull their weight, and lazy tanks. I'm the nicest tank in the world if you do things to help the group (death gripping a caster to me, CC'ing without me asking, silencing mobs on trash pulls, etc.), but if you can't even do your part to make the heroic a success, I dislike you with a fiery passion. It's so, so, so, so easy to make the run go smoother that it takes more collective effort not to do so.
Oh, and people who attempt to steal my gear. I'm tanking, you're not. I don't roll on your stuff as a tank, and I expect the same from you.

Last night I was healing H-Throne of the Tides. The third pull in the instance has a big melee naga dude that puts green slime splotches on the ground that hurt, a lot. One of the ranged dps was standing in it and I threw her a Riptide. She didn't move. I could have healed her through it by spamming heals on her, but if I did that she wouldn't have learned to not stand in it. Even if I chose to save her and explained afterwards, she probably wouldn't have understood how fast it actually kills you (in about 4 seconds w/o heals). After she died she apologized for not paying attention.
I was referring to when I tanked, sorry for not being clear about that. If I'm DPS'ing and I die because of a puddle on the ground and don't get heals, that fine. I shouldn't have been in the puddle in the first place, and since being in it is a problem, all bets are off as to whether or not I'll get a heal. However, if I'm tanking and it just doesn't seem like I'm getting enough heals and I die with the healer sitting at 90% or more mana, I get pissed off. I'll wait for you to drink until you need to go to rehab, just make sure I don't die. I'm not terribly squishy so it's not like I'll go from 100% to 10% in a few blows and catch you off guard or something. I gear to minimize those sorts of spikes precisely so you can heal me, not so that you can watch me as I die.

On topic, people that give others grief when they need gear really grinds me gears. I queued for H-ToT on my tank because I needed
Porcelain Crab
that drops from the "optional boss." When we arrived at the junction where you can go right and do the "optional" boss or go left and finish, I went right. The rest of the group went left. I wrote in party chat "I need the trinket from this boss." The 17k "I AM A DPS GOD" dps responded, I kid you not, "no you don't." That may have been the single douchiest thing I've seen said in a 5 man. I just sat down and after 25 seconds the group realized kicking me would take longer than actually doing the darn boss.
I've been kicked for trying to do that boss... six times and counting now. F*ck skipping, I am wearing my rep tabards for a REASON!

Healers that don't stand on the chains in the God Breaker fight, never use fade, stand still the entire time and then blame the DPS for the wipe because they didn't kill the adds fast enough.
....what do you mean bitter?

What really pisses me off more than anything are people who can't let a mistake go. Yes I realize I accidentally face pulled that boss because hunters have this quirky thing where they cant engage until the fight starts that I'm not used too. I said I was sorry I made a mistake can you not yell at me for five minutes over it?
A lot of times its not something that extreme like say I'm tanking and we're 3/4 of the way through the instance and I accidentally grab an extra group afterward the healers always like "Why don't you CC" or "Can we pull reasonable sized groups". Even after I said I'm sorry my mistake.
Another one I was in the Lost City of Tol'vir with a guild healer. On the second to last boss our healer said on vent he got a weird LoS issue with the stairs on the tank. He apologizes in the game to the tank for letting him die and wiping us. The tank starts freaking out on him about how he didn't move and how could he LoS. You know what? Who cares. It happened it won't happen again move on.
I can deal with poor players, low DPS, low threat tanks what have you but people who would rather sit there and harp on me or another player for 5 minutes after a wipe rather then move on need to grow up theres no need to bash everyone for their mistakes.
