Oh man, while googling for a screenshot of a paladin tank, I found this disaster of a GUI. Talk about information overload and obscuring vision. See if you can beat it. I’ll give US$2 via paypal to whoever produces the worst tanking UI. Use the vote buttons to say who has the best of the bad (ie. thumbs up means, this is a really crap screenshot). This isn’t democracy but it’d be fun to see votes. Yes, that’s a Quick funny post. The random guild I joined on my new realm. I log on one day to see the most ridiculous GMOTD, from the now former GM Panzer. You can see it in the picture.
Notice who is the new GM. Right. The guy who left the guild, the former GM, put his alt as placeholder GM. Guild doesn’t have much future, right, if the GM abandons it without a successor (deliberately? stupidly?) and instead I’m very pleased to say that Satorri, a very well-known Death Knight poster on TankSpot has agreed to have his essay on wipes published here at pwnwear.com. His bio concludes this article. Enjoy the read! Investing in Loss: How to turn wipes into valuable resourcesby guest author Satorri Anyone who has raided knows it is inevitable, even in the best of teams, that you will wipe attempting to tackle raid obstacles. Everyone has to learn new content, new encounters, and to do so you have to face them and fall in combat. I want to be careful how I use language here, because we can use words that lead us to think or remember things as something other than what it really is: learning. The term we use is usually ‘wipe,’ short for being wiped out. For many people it is easy to think of this as losing or failing, but there is a danger in thinking of it as “wipe = fail, clear = win.” The only way to fail in a true sense is to fail to learn from what you’ve done. Simply put, if you do not wipe you may miss your opportunity to improve, to see where you are weak, where you could improve. If you are good enough, or lucky enough, to waltz or be carried through content without dying or failing to clear a boss in one shot, you may start to believe you are infallible and miss the opportunity to improve that others who struggle will get.
