- All 3 of my characters use to be the faction of Alliance, and I have done several groups with several different players to determine my "Average" opinion of all Alliance people. As some of you may know, I play on the server Llane, where the Alliance to Horde ratio is 1.4:1. So with that being said Alliance quite allot of the Llane population. Most of these Alliance from studies and experience on the Alliance I assume at least 60% of the Alliance population is children from ages 7-12. Most, and I use the word "Most" very openly, act very immature during everything that happens.
- I was in a top raiding guild on Alliance called, Anguish. To be quite fair, they are what Alliance calls "Good Players". Alliance's strategies are: "Lets just zerg the boss", "Maybe we can kill it before adds come out", "Lets just burn it down". For those of you not completely understanding what I am saying, I'm basically saying that Alliance uses almost no "Intense" Strategies, Also using "Intense" very openly. Most of the Alliance are (If you'd like to compare by Gearscore) in the top raiding guilds, Around a 6.3 average gear rating. So their first instinct is to: "Burn the boss before adds came out". Which an example of this would be an Alliance guild actually was the first to try to "Zerg" Sartharion 3drakes. Which is successful, But I'm just trying to get at, Horde, by a long shot has a better understanding of the word "Strategy", which is what I call, "Good Players".
- Class wise, When I look at different class, I automatically assume one specific things which are as follows (Horde wise at least): Priest= Good healing wise, Shadow Priests kind of scare me to bring in raids. Characteristics of the actual person are kind of a stuck up prick. Death Knight= I'm laughing as I start this sentence, Dps wise is either a noob who can't pull any dps, or a well geared overpowered Death Knight who facerolls everything in sight. Tanking wise, I don't really have an opinion. Hunter= This is my pride and joy class. They are either really good dps and have a great understanding, or a complete noob and can't pull anything worth bringing into a raid. Now a days at least "Good" hunters are very hard to come by, its not like a Paladin or Death Knight or Mage where you can over gear yourself to about a 6.2+ Gearscore and just faceroll shit. Most "Good" hunters Ive seen have around a 5.9-6k Gearscore and pull just as much to more then every other class. It really just depends on the player. Paladin, Tanking wise, I usually expect a very noobish pally who can't hold aggro, or one of those pallys who can really play a prot pally and gives you good feelings when you look at him. Dps wise, pretty much every pally can do 5k dps so I don't have an opinion. Healing pally, pretty much the same as a prot pally. Mage, great dps overall, Don't have very much opinion on. Warlock, Either great dps if they know how to play and their rotation down, very terrible if they do not have the proper gear. Druids, Dps melee wise, push overs and don't even let them in my raid, Boomkin, Ive never even seen a bad boomkin cause their so hard to play and only experienced players venture into that part of a druid. Tree wise, Great at PvP great for raid healing, Never seen a bad one. Tank, eh, its a little iffy. Im currently experimenting with one myself, good at single target tanking, terrible at AoE packs cause their always "Rage Starved" and can't get enough swipes off. Warriors, dps wise, good dps if they know how to play, and depending on spec. Tanking, same as druid, has a potential to be good, but if you have one in your raid, he better be the boss tank. Rogues! One of my favorite class', Ive never seen a bad one so that's my opinion. Shaman same thing, pretty much great overall for raid healing and for ranged or melee dps.

Character Assumptions
As I have played through World of Warcraft, Throughout Vanilla, Burning Crusade, and now, Wrath of the Lich King, I have noticed several things as I have encountered players of different types of players (Class, Faction, Race, etc.) in the wonderful World of Warcraft. Throughout these encounters I have made several assumptions that I see as the "Average" player depending upon who, what, and how they play. For example...
