This.

Pull, then kill it. Don't run it around the map.

You do AA's a service by admitting you pull out TWF after the pull.

Absolutely.  I've dressed down many a kiting douchebag archer in my time even if one of my favorite things about being an archer is never having to chase a mob.  There are two times an archer should kite in a group... One is when is when they've stupidly (or accidentally... it happens) pulled too much agro at which point they need to keep thier kiting linear.  If you can't jump over the mobs and head back to your melee (at which point you should also be twf'ing) you need to rethink your build.  The ONLY time circular kiting is acceptable is as a means of crowd control.

Hell, I've yelled at archers for not turning off IPS, for turning on auto-attack and for not knowing when it's inappropriate to use manyshot.

Augh, just finished her first TR.  Took me forever to cap her again.  I could come up with a bunch of excuses... some even legitimate but hell, it just proved me a slacker and I've pretty much sworn off a second TR.  I think if I did my guildies would have a collective heart attack   Embarrassed

I seriously considered going helf this life but as lame an excuse as it is, the PnP roleplayer in me says Peech was born to be an elven ranger.  She may be squishy but she's sexy  Wink

Kormor's Belt exists for a reason.

Here is an example of it in use:

Shroud, people kill non kobold bosses in 5. Guy kites kobold around. Casters get mana back. Guy keeps kiting kobold around.

Me: Dance monkey, dance.
Monkey: *dances*
Kobold: *vorpals pewpewpewer*
Rest of group: *completion*

When people bring in their personal lives, it is all fair game.  This board promotes trolling.  If you bring something up, expect it to be used against you at a later date if not immediately.  You want to bring up personal shit, well, that is your problem.

If one fails to understand the nuances of elite level trolling they would falsely interpret posts meant to fan the flames as support.

I said the same thing when Smrti finally capped, but soon as I find a +3 Heart, I'm off again for 2nd TR time...ugh.
