heh heh, this happened to me and ever since I carry a fire elemental brazier
on my wizzie so I can hand one over to the fool and tell him to summon his
own damn pet! First time I did that was to a twinkie paladin. He didn't
get it either, just complained that my pet would be better than the one the
brazier would summon. Ignorance may be bliss, but only for the ignorant.
For the rest of us it's just a pain in the backside.

uhmmm, well, last time i was in seb, grouped with a warrior who for some odd
reason kept telling our wizzie to summon a pet. the wiz was wearing a red
robe, /shrug. then he started to tell me (i was playing my enchanter):
"mana suck this frog!" and not just one time. he would point to a frog and
tell me to mana tap it. then tell the wiz to summon a pet. at first we kinda
made jokes: "dude, i never bought that spell!" But he didn;t seem to get it
and kept telling us what to do.

Finally i told him, "dude, just exactly how long is the recycle time on
theft of thought? when the spell is recycled - and when i need mana - trust
me - i will tap them. and btw, our wizzie cant summon pets worth a darn."

so, i dunno if our study is totally scientific, but its not just bards,
afaict

I feel your pain... When I get very frustrated at players like that I often
say "I don't tell you how to play you're your character, please don't tell
me how to play mine. What I find so frustrating; with very few exceptions I
never see people telling any other classes how to play their character
except bards.
