please stop referring to yourself as damage per second. a better term would be, DD = damage dealer.

    DPS = Dope per Stripe...?

    Whether you name yourself a DD, as per how the OP wants it, or DPS, we get both...

    Well, most do.

    Umm, well, maybe not most, but... some do.

    Right?
    No?

    But wouldn't damage dealer mean that someone would pay me to do damage. And if so, what would be a fair price for my damage? 1 gold per 100 damage?

    Or you could just take it as what the player will be doing, since they'll be... you know, doing DPS...

    I mean Tanks don't get called out for not slapping on all-terrain treads and a big gun turret either, right?

    Please do not use the word complain, but use the terminology: nag.

    It shouldn't be accepted at all. Kind of like the guys asking for "Drew" wax.

    Stop.

    Tanks, please refer to yourselves as damage sponges, as you are not actually vehicles manufactured for war.
