Seriously, that's pretty much how I feel about the topic. In my opinion, society (and by extension, WoW) is made up of two kinds of people: those who are jerkwads and those who aren't. The people who spam damage meters after every pull to point out that A.) they are awesome and B.) you are not -- those are jerkwads. I can't think of a single good reason for this behavior. It's counterproductive, it's mean, and it's stupid.
- Monitoring your own DPS.
- Using the meter to help you when tweaking specs, gear setups, or testing spell rotations.
- In raids.
- Linking in party chat during a random PUG, without being asked to do so.
- Determining who's a good DPS and who isn't.
- Justifying a vote-kick.
