And if you truely have never had someone die, i honestly think that says more about the quality of people you are playing with then anything about how great a healer you are.

Just for the sake of discussion, what constitutes pretending to you? In regards to a magicka dps class healing.
Slapping a resto staff on the back bar with healing ward and calling it a day, then yes I agree completely. It's as obnoxious as any other class queuing for a role that they are not equipped for.
But if a sorc healer is carrying his terrible group, he is doing anything but pretending.
So slightly better then a "yay I logged in" group doesn't make a sorc healer a good healer. We definitely have a blind leading the blind statement here.
My statement was not implying that the given scenario demonstrates a good healer nor was I speaking to you.
