Raiding 101

OK so I have mentioned this a few times in my blog, I should probably put some words to the comment.
Raiding 101 is the UM DUH stuff you should (or shouldn't) do when raiding with 24 other people.  Please add more in the comments, and I will update the lists here!

2) Don't stand in front of the boss
3) Don't pull aggro
4) Don't pull early
5) Be flasked and fooded and mana/healthed up before the readycheck
6) Mouseturn
6a) if you MUST keyboard turn, Strafe, don't backstroke (unbind 's' from your movement keys)
