I looked through some of the older threads here and did not see one that related to the topic I wanted to reply to so I decided to just start one. Forgive me in advance if this is redundant in any way, shape or form.
I am what you could call a semi-hardcore raider as I actively raid with two of my 8 80's on the Velen server. I am sure that everyone of us has a few of these moments.
This happened while I was with my previous guild when we were in Naxx-25. We had wiped on an earlier attempt on KT's life and the raid leader was just about to pull when in vent, a fellow hunter said "BRB in 2 mins, I gotta take a shower". We all LOL'd and thought it was hilarious. That is until we realized he was dead serious. He was AFK and we were all in vent going "WTF?! Are you serious?!" We did end up proceeding without him and ended up wiping *keep in mind, this was when Naxx first came out* and of course, he died as well. We all got back and decided to kick him from the raid but then realized that as long as his body was still physically there in front of KT, we could not bring in his replacement.
Good times...../sarcasm
