So its a required addon by pretty much everyone on the server, yet offers absolutely zero actual benefit (dps meter, boss mod, etc) other than to help random people have yet another excuse to kick someone out of a group that the LFG tool put together because they DID meet the requirements to make the group? A tool created to help the people that know nothing about another class pretend to know anything about the other class's gear?

I think my favorite story was when a friend of mine ran a PUG the other day, got together a group based around the GS requirements, and despite everyone having sufficient GS to run the instance, one guy was adamant that they couldn't run the Heroic because "dude, the noob has a blue! A blue! I'm not going to carry him!" My friend was like "... He more than meets the requirements for this instance, and Heroics are where you gear up." "BUT HE HAS A BLUE! *Links repeatedly in chat* I'm not carrying him!" (The guy was decked in 25 ToC gear otherwise) The guy in question was a healer, and the other asshole ended up dropping from the group after telling everyone off for not kicking the healer. They replaced him quickly, and then cleared the Heroic with zero deaths.

EDIT: Actually, I'm sorry, just realized what I did. It was a green, not a blue. A green trinket, which sometimes ARE better than blue trinkets and are also fairly rare to upgrade. Got my colors swapped around in my head for some reason.

I also realized how little help I was.
