Most addons can be self taught. Just type the main command for them (/bongos for bongos) and you're good to go. It's all a matter of reading really.
Note: Most addons commands are their names or the acronym for their names. For instance /bongos for Bongos or /aguf for ag_UnitFrames.
edit:
Ok..say you're in a BG, and a rogue comes up behind you. You're near like 3 other alliance so jump/spin and tab won't work effectively if you want to do it quickly. How the **** do you click through all that shit to target him? Just an example..=P | Who the hell clicks the buttons anyway? I even bought a mouse with more buttons near the thumb. |

| I use both hotkeys and clicking. It depends on the situation.

Honestly that's class discrimination that they won't restore your quest line. If you were SUPPOSED to get a healing ring because you are a Druid, and that's all they're good for, that would've been the only item you could get. They're being dicks, you need to reopen a ticket.
GMs have a funny way of not giving you what you need the first or second time. Eventually they'll stop ****ing slacking off and do their goddamn job. | As a feral druid, i sit out for rogues on encounters like Romulo or Aran when we need spell interrupts and i sit out for encounters like Maulgar or Doomwalker for our prot warriors because Last Stand / Shield Wall are much more important (being able to push crushings off the table with shield block is another salt in the wound).
In my tanking set, i have roughly 12.5k hp and 20k armor with about 35% dodge. That is 1k hp and 6k armor less than a warrior who has block/parry and "oh shit" buttons that are more useful than a heal that heals for less than a potion and requires a full rage bar. Before the mitigation nerf, druids were fine. After the nerf, the gap between a non-prot spec'd warrior and a geared out feral druid are getting very slim.
I blame warlocks, they seem to be the root of every problem.

| I moved some of the buttons around and deleted most of the useless shit like bags, menus, and most of the action bars. Can anyone suggest an addon to deal with the health/mana bar at the top left? And maybe one to compact my minimap a little

| No the bastards made me go to class. I tried xperl to fix my portrait and it's too complicated and the graphics on the portrait are shitty. No one needs that many options for how your portrait hp/mana bars are displayed.

| That looks great. I finished mine. It's nowhere near as cool, but I was mainly just trying to pare it down to the essential buttons that I need. 
By the way, thanks Jason and Kit for helping me out a lot with configuring everything.

| The discord site was down yesterday and I didn't feel like waiting. The uf do look pretty nice, but I spent a lot of time working out the ui that I'm using now, and I'm not ****ing changing it for a long time.
