The AFK guy NOTE: This is pretty much me. Is AFK during EVERYTHING. He's rarely in Vent (to listen for boss fights) even if he is at his keyboard, and he usually isn't. Typically places himself on Follow to avoid people noticing. He's $!@% last for his class on the Damage/Healing meter and never does his class job. He's usually there in time for boss fights but will probably alt+tab again after the fight is done and loot has been distributed. When confronted on his bad DPS, he'll come up with an excuse ("I'm a fire mage/shadow priest/feral druid/not geared/on the phone/bad connection!").
Most the time MC was such a breeze I got drunk and passed out on follow :D I'd glance up at the boss fight every now and then but as a priest I was pretty much useless except for healing and everyone was getting overhealed anyway.
The Good Back-up Man, this guy is awesome. You love taking him, he's so much fun to be around, he plays his class like no other, he rarely if ever #@%$!es about loot, he's online and at the instance right on time for invites (without being reminded in advance)... He's 100x better than whoever he replaced, making you want to bring him every time even if it means dropping the regular guy.
I sort of like that one :p Well it is everything I do :S
The Aussie Doesn't play on your server's time-zone. Can't raid with you on weekdays. Has a funny accent that, if he overlaps with a few other characters, can be quite entertaining. He probably plays a class essential to your raid (like a Dwarf Priest) or else is extremely skilled at playing the game. The Aussie is generally a friendly, easy-going guy that rarely causes problems for the raid.
Milenko whispers you : Bud i'm gonna pass on everything else for this instance, i've just won 247, 987 rolls in a row and people are getting suspicious :)
The Princess NOTE: This does not describe all female players, only a certain breed of them. The Princess will flirt with everyone, and I mean EVERYONE. She almost always gets loot over people with more dkp, due to either her flirting with all the people above her or a "slip-up" by the Master-Looter. If she's decent-looking, everyone knows what her Myspace is. If she isn't decent-looking, she'll pretend she is. She probably talks in a really high-pitched voice. She knows at least one other raider in RL and will defend him on any issue no matter what; the whole raid will probably start taking his side too to suck up to The Princess.
I would've said Maered, except : a) she only seems to flirt with Valk b) it's more a of ditzy, nasally whine c) I don't think I've agreed with anything she's said. ever.
there are however, apparently pics of her floating around. and apparently she IS quite a stunner, or so I'm told :p
The Pervert: Makes a sexual reference about anything and everything on vent. Usually pretends to be gay with another member of the guild. Overlaps with The Clown.
The Cynic Not to be confused with the pessimist, the cynic actually hopes that everything WILL go well. Quietly however, the Cynic knows that regardless of how rosey the air smells right now and no matter how full the glass is, sooner or later Murphey and his law are going to come trumping down the hill and blame him for every little f^cking thing that went wrong.
The Inflamer Will bring up controversial societal issues and inflame people on purpose. People used to him get a good laugh, new raiders will sometimes be offended/confused. Can be extremely radical ("All drugs should be legalized!") or just moderately controversial ("George W. Bush is the greatest/worst President ever!").
I think. Either that or the Cusser, or the Aussie. Or a mix. I dunno.
The Cusser Swears profusely about everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. He'll swear when your group is idle in front of the two beginning giants. This dude can be very funny, especially if he has an accent. He's almost always drunk and will suually tell you he's drunk multiple times.

Im not lv 60 but just in current groups i seem most like a mix of these two (cept i dont get loot over) :p The Princess NOTE: This does not describe all female players, only a certain breed of them.
