Rogues = Death of the Bracket

I have to agree somewhat with the OP, but then again this has been true for a long time. Even in wrath when q times were short and games were abundant, if it was a heavy rog night then q's would die off early or everyone would just afk to reQ on their rogs making for interesting 6+rog vs 6+rog games. Unfortunately atm there is not an abundance players and q times are long so it should be no surprise if games end early or are hard to get into with so many fotm in q. But rogues are not only to blame for these lack of games. Personally, I am more likely to stop Q'ing myself when I have to face against or heal trough 4+ hunters and I know quite a few players that got fed up w 19s long ago due to hunters....
I love this bracket and have loved it for a long time so I took some advice way back late wrath to reroll a FC or healer and so I did both and have since developed a great fondess to my other 19s and my rog has been pretty much mothballed since end of wrath. I am very thankful for that advice and would be remiss without my 19 priest and warr.
Soooo all you awesome rogs and hunters out there....try rerolling, you just may like it
and I already know the community will like it.

Summary:
OP and supporters are worried about bracket dying because the reality is that the bracket is barely staying alive
OP and supporters see how too many rogues makes games worse considering the way the game is now
OP and supporters suggest that people with other toons play other toons, and people without other toons maybe roll one
Antagonists to this line of thinking get mad because they think people are telling them what to do, and everyone hates being told what to do
People get nasty
Reality remains in effect, and if nothing else maybe this post will get people playing more so that the bracket won't die
Seems like a pretty good outcome.
As for me, I haven't played my rogue since it lost gouge, and there is nothing more discouraging then getting a WSG and seeing you have 5 rogues on your team...
On the other hand, it's nice to see one.

I don't really play wow anymore, but decided to hop on TI and read a thread or two- saw this and was pretty surprised. I remember seeing dodgeyou back in bc as a level 10 dodge twink and had seen him every now and then up until cata and never once did I think he was a "shitter" by any means.
edit: Assuming it isn't a coincidental name and this is his alt. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/moonrunner/Dodgeyou/advanced

Its me on my level 15. Idk who this Herald guy is, don't really care. He can keep on hating if he wants to. Ill play how I play. I may not get kills every time I attack someone, but its ok. Sometimes a good distraction is all your team needs. Ill jump on anyone out there if I see the need to distract them from what they are already doing. Do I die a lot? Yes. Its part of it.
As for last nights games, I queued rogue all night. I didn't want to queue anything else. Its the only night in months that I went rogue only. I usually only get him out after games start to get bad. Last night I wasn't feeling like playing anything else.
Thank you for the compliment Dag.

I don't really want to get involved in this topic too much because I don't play 19's enough any more to do so, but from the comments so far it seems like it's just a bunch of the same people that play rogues everyday that are ruining the bracket. I'm sure if this thread manages to convince 3-4 people who play rogues who are dedicated and want this bracket to get back on track it will be a great success.
Back on topic; I played my first 19 game for a long time yesterday and found the games very boring for this exact reason. 2 out of 3 games we were vsing 5 rogues and they were 5 rogues who mainly focused on just picking off players by themselves. It turns games into if you manage to cross mid with the flag you win sort of games. Not trying to bash any rogues out there but if you do play a different class instead of your rogue the community will acknowledge it and you will be much more welcome than what you are now. Just my opinion anyway

Troll on and hide behind that shiny new TI account because you are too much of a p&%%y to say who you are.

Bad mentalities have historically been a lot more toxic for a bracket than a specific class. Seeing as few know who you are, you are probably pretty new to twinking (or at least this bracket). If you're looking for acceptance from better players in the bracket by being condescending towards people you have a problem with, you won't get very far with the community.

You act like topping damage as a warrior in a dungeon at a low level is some sort of feat... Anyone can make a warrior and deal a decent amount of damage.
