I appreciate everyone taking the time to put their experiences concerning mob drops, tactics on how to battle the mob, the location of a certain mob.
What I, and more than likely a good deal of other people out there, would like to see is more information on the mob. Is it slowable, does it summon, can it be snared/rooted, is it a caster/warrior/rogue/etc, can it see invis. I really don't care if a duo of 75's took down every mob in a 30-40 level zone. I am not impressed that a level 55 soloed a level 35 mob. You do not help anyone with your bragging. If you are going to take the time to add some information concerning mobs, please make it helpful. Keep the chest-puffing to a different venue.

I don't mind when people say what they took down at what level, assuming they note what level of gear they have. It gives a good idea on what you need to kill it. This point also goes to how hard a mob hits, because not knowing the level, class, and equipment level of the toon taking the hits that are posted does not give nearly as much information.

I've thought about adding minimum hit and estimated hit ratios, but it's fairly difficult to be accurate with that info, even on your own toon, with shielding effects, varying AC from buffs, and the like. I mean difficult in the sense of time-consuming, not so much hard to actually do.

Anyway, my point was, that it's not always bragging, but sometimes it obviously is. It's just faster and easier to post the group make-up and levels than parse alot of stuff, especially when you have huge log files like I do. I start a new oen every week or so, and they're usually 50-100MB each, and if I let it go for a month or so, they're generally several 100MBs.
