		<description><![CDATA[Isn&#039;t the non chit chat forcing their playstyle onto you?

Usually I&#039;d expect some sort of compromise to start being suggested at that point? Not that one side just stops?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I see what you did thar with the title.

My herald is currently called Quennie (it&#039;s too obvious with a K and this sounds a little useless). He&#039;s some uncle&#039;s cousin&#039;s sister&#039;s third aunt twice removed&#039;s son and I had no choice but to give the little sod a job.

He&#039;s not too bad so far and I almost never get him killed.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[personally I dislike chitchat during raids, I find it very disturbing and distracting for a focused progress raid even though I consider myself very good in english. the problem is that I will switch off to chitchat and won&#039;t be able to tell when a raidleader is actually saying something important.

in my guild we were always of the opinion that there&#039;s no more than 2-3 people that should be talking (ontopic) on vent most of the time - corpseruns and bios being an exception ofc.

our raids quality always went downhill when we didn&#039;t hold to that. it can be fun too, but I prefer it for more casual raids / 10mans etc.  like you said, not everyone can focus or multitask in the same way. 

one summer some years ago we ran a couple of raids in MH with another guild whose guys were constantly chatting and joking about their own little jokes - I was ready to jump off a cliff after the first week together, lol x)]]></description>
