It's also common to hear at the end of the raids "post the stats, Quark!" Sometimes it can be an eye opener, though, and there's been a few times where I didn't want to post the stats but someone else asked
And sometimes that helps. ;) I was certain I was doing more damage than I actually was until someone posted a damage meter report and I realized I (a hunter) was 11 out of 14. I managed to outDPS two priests and a druid somehow. I was shocked to say the least, and it led to some discussions with a couple of people about hunters and various talents and whatnot.
The only time I feel, not so much "bored" as "useless" is when we run UBRS, and the mages go AoE nuts. By the time I have a target, they've killed it. So there has been a time or two that I've felt like I'm just along for the haul until we reach Rend, and then things start to kick up.
The pleasure of the game comes for me in doing what I do, and doing it well. I am a big socializer, and a bit of an achiever and explorer. I like adding DPS and watching the monsters fall before me, I like being able to peel monsters off the healers/cloths, and onto me instead. I really just enjoy playing, as I have a great group of folk to do it with.
