I've actually been told by people in low level roulettes to stay out of cleric stance. What? So when you get yelled at for healing too much, then get yelled at for trying to help DPS, it's like okay monitor goes out the window.
I think the point that doesn't need pushy insults to get across is: don't do nothing. If you're doing nothing, you're not really playing the game. You're sitting on the rest of the group. Healing a tank that's full on health is equivalent to nothing.
I'm generally quite cautious. I do a lot of DF and roulettes, and I will not switch to cleric until I trust the group isn't going to be lunacy, i.e. until I get bored, because I don't like being bored either. If the tank stays at full health most of the time but then drops suddenly to 10% (goddamn beeeees), I'm going to sit there with my trigger finger on a heal rather than switch, because I'm not bored, I'm freaking out. These days there are plenty of tanks who can handle a fairy and nothing else, but still, I don't have blind faith. I heal until I know I have the room to do the extras.
