After collecting the quests and sitting in IF playing with my new Crashin' Thrashin' Robot, I got invited by the 30 Lock to a group. I should have seen a disaster coming when the 31 paladin was invited and then left, but I didn't. I did see it when we invited the 27 paladin and he demanded a summon.

Eventually I got to the meeting stone, having overtaken the 30 warlock on the way, and it suddenly became clear to me that we were going to have problems. Not only did the warlock go all over the place looking for the meeting stone, he didn't initiate any summons at first... and then tried to summon the 31 pala, by this time reinvited, who had already been summoned.

So we went down, killed Techbot and got his brain, got punch cards, and went into the instance. By this time, the paladins were arguing - both wanted to tank and neither wanted to heal. The 31 went AFK, the 27 left.

Five minutes later, by the time the 31 pala sat down and actually became in-game afk, we were still waiting.

A short time after, he yelled at us. 'FIND A HEALER'. So I went onto LFG and asked for a healer to Gnomer. And by now we were wasting the 28 lock's time, and I thought so too, to be honest. So we left. Just outside the instance I met the 30 lock again and he tried to invite me again, but I declined, and a few seconds later hearthed.

Oh well...
