So, i got banned from EJ's forums.... here is what happened!
My original post:
I'm leveling my sham and the 38 min ques as elemental blow. I'm wanting to throw down on a resto spec since its similar gear, I'm concerned that i won't have enough Mp5 for some of the fights. What is a good baseline mp5 amount for me to start healing through dungeons in the 70s? is the BoA gear(shoulder+chest) and a piece or 2 more enough? i realize i can just drink but no one likes downtime. At the moment my Sham is lvl 71, and i have about 87mp5 on my gear. I read through the TTT for resto and nothing like this was listed, it might make a good addition to the "leveling as resto section"
The reply as to why it was pulled down:
Reason: 7. Do not beg for hand-holding.

Our forums are geared towards end game raiding. If you can't figure out how to get to 80 all by yourself you might want to find a different place to post. This is too basic and too dumb even for the SQA thread. Also, don't be lazy you can capitalize "I" throughout your entire post and still feel like a champion.
My reply to this:
I know that the forums are geared towards end game raiding, if you read the resto shaman TTT, it had some information on suggestions while leveling, all I asked for was a simple start point on if and how much mp5 would be suggested not to: "Sit down and drink duh" I even said in my post I knew that was obvious. Didn't realize that an "its not a concern" or "just grab the gear you get", or a "you have enough" was far to complicated. You might notice my main is a Disc priest with kingslayer I wasn't asking for hand holding. Pardon me for reading info, not finding a result of information I deemed semi valuable and asking if anyone knew. That is what a forum is for after all. It was not any intention to get a thread going on the topic of a baseline mp5, I just wanted a simple ballpark example, thankfully I was able to "read a viable answer of just get more mana pool" Grats on not reading my entire thread or the thread I referenced, and only seeing that I typoed the word "i" once or twice. If starter information isn't intended to be talked about perhaps it should be removed from the TTT's for each class. Check your own staff's work before you complain about mine, action is reflected by leadership's example.
Carebares next reply:
We do not have staff. We have volunteers and they do a pretty damned good job. Your post was worthless. Get snarky with me some more and I'll help you find another place to post.
My next reply:
You do have good volunteer's. volunteer's are staff by the way. I was merely trying to point out that, if the forum is only for being 80 and end game, TTT's shouldn't have info about leveling in them. If info like this was excluded, a question like mine would not have been aroused. Did you actually read the resto sham TTT section i refer to before yanking my post for failing at "i" I notice your a tauren druid, your opinion about the worthlessness of questions about resto shamans seems irrelevant ?
You guys act all high and mighty about stuff, but you also have to be able to take it as good as you can give it, I hope this does something to humble you a bit, clearly its needed, "snarky" is not a word please refrain from "net speak" in your replies in the future.
Don't get upset now. step back breath, and read objectively and without bias what I refer to and ask. It quickly becomes a valid question and suggestion. Thankfully I was able to glean that all I need is my caster gear and a bigger mana pool as things progress towards 80. From the 1 reply I received.
If you played a shaman you might remember they are 1 of 2 specs that actually have mp5 as a viable stat, None of the other 28 variants of class/spec need it. It would seem a question in regards to this uncommonly used stat by so much of the wow community wouldn't be offensive. If you cannot reply to me in a polite and logical manor, nor realize that i was polite and logical, please refer my posts to a more appropriate moderator.
The new modorator's reply:
Greetings.
Carebear informed me that you had requested another moderator to weigh in on your infraction. After careful review, I've come to the conclusion that you can fuck off.
all carebear forwarded to him was my last reply that included a more unbias moderator.
i belive the TTT link i refer to is here :
http://elitistjerks.com/f47/t24796-shaman_restoration/ i can't actually look at it cuz i'm banned it clearly has a section on "leveling as resto" i was banned for wanting a leveling guide officially. i find this really really funny. and proves they are very very childish.
