But I really wanted to comment as this totally resonates with me:
"It’s hard to stomach the idea of playing a character you’ve totally lost interest in, especially when there’s no realistic prospect of progressing that character (Myr hasn’t had an upgrade in months). It’s doubly frustrating when you’re being asked to bring that character specifically because she’s overgeared, which inspires a whole host of thoughts about how I’m compensating for the low gear/skill/commitment/attendance of others."
There's only so much of my time that I want to spend shielding people through fights targeted way below my gs, when those people won't even read up on the encounters, or find out how to improve their own play. I don't even understand why they think it's fun -- but they do, and they crow about 1 shotting bosses when really, they didn't beat the boss, my shields did.
(Yes, I'm a leetle bit bitter right now.)
'Long, angry, suppressed rants' seems like a very useful blog category.

NOT TO BE CONSUMED IN PUBLIC!
DO NOT READ BEFORE OPERATING HEAVY MACHINERY!
I had a very serious meeting with our new Communications Manager right after I finished this, and I don't think her impression of me as a committed professional was improved by my intermittently guffawing at a repeating image of Gerald trying not to throw up in his mouth.
Magic.

I cackled so long and hard my co-workers think I'm having some sort of breakdown. I need the table and the ether. Great post.
