Pug Matching, or "What If Blizz Had Us Fill Out Pug Personality Forms?"

This is just for fun.  It's not an actual feature Blizz is implementing or considering, though it might be a good idea someday if they throw all realms into the same pug system (instead of doing it by battlegroup).
What Is Your P-U-G Personality?

1. My own gear is important to me.

  1. The problem is that all the asshats will just put 10 for everything, and only Honest people will actually do it properly.

  2. Then we need multiple profiles as some answers depend on my mood.

  3. Number 3 is hard to answer. The tank's gear is important to me. I pugged a bunch on several toons yesterday and met 3 tanks in heroics that weren't def capped. That matters.

    On the other hand, does it matter to me that the dps is in questing greens? No. I do excellent dps on all my dps toons and my healers aren't suffering for mana or capability, so I don't give a crap if things die more slowly.

    Healers can really also get away with poorer gear. I've seen skilled healers without a single epic on them keep up a group, as long as the tank was able to hold aggro and not eating crits. So yeah, tank's gear.

    Same goes for 10.

    Aside from that, I think you're capturing a lot of basic elements of pug interaction in those questions.
