Ketchaeatcha's Sunday Sermon: Tolerance
As de self appointed spritual guide o de guild (so appointed cause I guide my party members to de spirit healer ratha frequently) I have not been asked to do a series o de moral messages on de topics we all deal wit on a daily occurrence… but I be doing it anyway.
Read, Enjoy, Enlighten
Ya Mon, we be gathered here today to be talkin’ about de nature of tolerance. Now I be understanding dat dis is not de issue most nestled if de hearts of my flock. But I feel dat I should be speaking to it all de same. Now tolerance comes in many flavors from de tolerance of de mistakes of others, de tolerance of what others might do or forget to do, and de taco (de last tolerance is most important not to be exceeded cause when you do, De consequences can be tragic depending on where de others be standing at de time).
Ya has to always be tinking on how de actions dat annoy you de most when others do dem is tings dat you do yourself. Let de man who has never stolen a spawn or rolled on de magic item when dey not totally sure dey actually plan to use it throw de first n00b.
Can I get a Amon now?
Dat is de important ting, to recognize de noobish action in ourselves before we be throwing it at uthers. Now as de great prophet said on de temple mount “Get me off this Talbuk!” and den as he said once he got off de temple mount “My brethren always forgive to the third offence”
Now what he be meaning by dis is dat all peoples are deserving a certain amount of slack in your dealing wit em. Anyone can do a stupid ting once or twice, only after dey mess up in de same way for a third time can ya tink of it as a pattern rather den a simple set o’ errors… unless it be a gnome, den dey only get two, cause dey already used up one mistake at de character selection screen.
Can I get a Amon now?
Dus do we see dat we are all simple creatures entitled to be making some a da mistakes. For it be only by making mistakes dat de newb can learn what he should no be doing. So remember, de first time someone annoys you forget, de seccond time forgive, and de third time hit de Duel button cause dat punk needs schooling.
Can I get a sandwich now? I be hungry
And now I will close de sermon wit de famous words of Saint Immawhiner, who was martyred for his beliefs on de Paladin on de forum boards
“So, which Dev was sneaking unprescribed pharmaceuticals into the staff bathroom in the half hour before they came up with Paladins? I mean come on, I don’t mind the concept of a class that can tank, dps, or heal equally good. I don’t care if you give a class a freaking BUBBLE that lets them wander up to a city boss, kick him in the junk and then HEARTH away… HECK, make a caster that can wear PLATEMAIL armor, FINE with me... BUT FOR HELLS SAKE ALL AT ONCE???
What possible scale can you use where that seems like a fair and balanced decision? Let me take you into the minds of the dev team when this little beauty was being banded around.
Dev 1: Hey man watch me empty this beer bong!
Dev 2: Cool man! Let me try as soon as I finish this reefer!
Dev 3: Now that I finished talking to my parents who are incidentally brother and sister, lets discuss the next class... Paladins
Of course don’t get me started on DK’s either… Hint to Blizz, if you equip someone with a rocket launcher, giving the next guy in line a tank isn’t balance. So take your 75% damage reduction, Your Raid wide buffs, and this pineapple… and store it the same place blizzard installed your Iwin button. Screw you guys I’m going home.
--From the last speech of Immawhiner, canonized for being the only troll to whine about every class/race combination on the blizzard forum boards. The goblins who built the cannon in question were heard to remark that this was in preemptive self defence with the expected QQ contained in the next expansion

Re: Ketchaeatcha's Sunday Sermon: Tolerance
That was SO fantastic. A real lesson, made me think long an hard on tolerance and acceptance. Good lecture from our first guild priestie.
