I was doing CC in the hand room in Karnor Castle - and everything's going
fine - mezzing on a 2 pull. I'm still (out of habit) playing first-person
view even thought I've heard all the advice that overhead is better for
CC...

Anywho - I try to target the add which is in view in the bottom right
hand
of the screen - and all hell breaks loose. It takes me a second to realize
that I've clicked the "Social/Abilities" box and the interface decided it
was time for me to move the box. I frantically try to figure out how to
get
it to stop - as a 3rd mob walks in the room. By the time I get it under
control the 2 tanks are dead. I get 2 mobs tied down - we kill one when
more start spawning. At this point we don't have enough firepower (2
Clerics and a Druid) - and eventually I get a string of resists to mez - so
we decide to run for the border. One of the mobs was a summoner - so only
one of the four of us makes it.

I told my guildies what happened - only to discover about the alt-L
command
to lock the windows. If you haven't done the ALT-L do it right away - I
wish I had known about it before.
