Dungeon Finder Problems (with Diagrams)

This article about the problems with dungeon finder caught my eye, partly because of the diagrams and partly because it illustrates the issue of how player misbehavior makes WOW such a pain to play.  In my opinion, nothing that Blizzard can do to tweek the dungeon finder will improve PUG raids.  Only folks changing how they treat others will do that.

Main Versus Alts

The Solo MMO Player doesn't have a main and alts.  Instead he has characters he plays in various situations.  Lissana is noticing that the main versus alts language just doesn't cut it anymore in WOW.  She talks about generalist and specialist players instead.

What's your play style and what language describes it?  (This is my Whiny post for Whiny Post Day, in case you hadn't guessed.)
