No hope in groups 1-40?

DPS just randomly zergs mobs because its hitting someone other than them(zero use of an assist macro) or because the tank doesn't have a "assist me on X target macro"

I am a bard and I AoE kited from 2-40 and I ended up tanking,slowing/snaring,mezzing up to 4 mobs because with two classes that could CC, they didn't want to assist in crowd controlling in a group last night...or am I just playing with a bunch of down syndrome wow fan boys that got into Everquest?[You must be logged in to view images.

As a bard I have the opposite problem. I have people that are too cautious and have terrible knowledge of general gameplay. Druids that would rather blow their whole mana pool in one nuke whereas they could be dotting for efficiency, melee/tanks that go off on their own, casters that pull aggro with high-hitting DD spells and wonder why they die from aggro, etc. It definitely feels like 99 and no one has any clue how to play the game at maximum for their class.

I end up leaving most groups because they'd rather pull 1 light blue at a time. At that point I find out I am wasting my time and just go aoe kite.

To be fair the same exact thing happened in 1999, it just pisses you off more - now that games like WoW are out and make you hate society.
