My pet hate is people telling me what totems to put down... and telling me when to put down tremor totem, continuously...
Random DPS'er: Tremor pls!
Me: already down
Random DPS'er: cool
Tank: Tremor pls!
Me: ...

"Shamen require less skill to play than any other class" no, that's a DK.
While it is true that in the early 60's DKs are overpowered due to their gear being on par with outland blues, DK's actually do require a lot of skill to play. My main's a DK, and my second 80 is a shaman - shamans are much easier. That said, hunter or druid is easier than a shaman.
It's SHAMEN not SHAMANS
Someone else linked it, the basic idea is that "shaman" is not a compound word of "sha-man" but is actually a full word. Therefore, shamans is the correct plural.
My pet peeve on my shaman is when I talk to the other shamans about which totems we should each use (to avoid stacking the same one and ignoring another) and this happens:
Me - What totems you dropping?
Them - Doesn't matter.
Me - Yeah, but I don't want to drop the same ones as you.
Them - This is (instance) it doesn't matter.
Yeah, I know some instances are easier, but there's no point in spending the time arguing with me over making our totem-dropping more efficient.

When people don't group up so chain heals can bounce.... ugh that makes me so angry. :P

@ skribs
What I do in situations like that is (as resto) look to see what type of shaman they are... and then drop whatever I know they won't. i.e. enh will drop SoE and generally WF; ele will drop ToW and generally WoA, so I'll cover whatever is left over as my totems aren't buffed. The only time it gets messy is when you are both the same spec.

Another thing that annoys me is people using the /healme emote, especially those that spam it... yes I know you need healing, the tank just needs it a little more right now.

This. Like 75% of the encounters you can do now, it makes no sense to spread out.
Also, people who don't understand our abilities. Bloodlust, totems and CH. For a few months my raid leader was under the impression I could only chain heal immediate party members.. But she also didn't realize that cleansing totems were immediate party only.
I'm also used to getting yelled at in 25man Thaddius for not throwing up a Heroism right away as the only shaman.

Matt that reminds me of a run I was doing on my DK when the paladin was like "pull or I'm leaving" after I said like 3-4 times "buff me before the next pull" and he hadn't buffed me. Had to put in raid warning "BUFF ME THEN!"
Novak, I've had this conversation just after a wipe on 25-man patchwerk (of which the MT kept moving away from the OT's and getting gibbed in half a second):
Him: Don't use HW on this fight
Me: Why?
Him: Because we dont want AoE
Me: HW isn't an AoE...

Shamen - lol! That made me laugh. It's definitely shamans as other's have said, sorry!
The BL thing also annoys me. Some random DPS shouts "BL! BL NOW!" - I comply, tank says "WTF? Why did you BL?" blah blah... don't listen to random people shouting BL, in a boss if you don't know if there's an enrage timer or a need then ask the tank beforehand I suppose. Now I know on all bosses when to place it and usually ignore random shouting. DPS also has had hard times grasping the concept of the cooldown and thinks I can place it on every boss even if there's only a 2m interval "Why didn't you BL?" Doh.. 8 min cooldown maybe?
I've also been asked to buff people a few times. Buff you with what, I'm not putting totems down every single step of the way!
Oh... and tanks that move me into the tank group so they can get totem buffs, despite me explaining that anything useful to a tank (short of PCT in a naxx raid) is raid wide, and my party wide totem is mana which means I should be back with the healers thank you very much.... You'll still get the buffs!
