Until Blizzard does something about the Holy tree, my priest is pretty much retired. I don't want to be Shadow spec'd at 70. I rolled this character to heal, not passive heal and do DPS. Still, I do log on to her to use all of my tailoring cooldowns and farm motes. If you recall or care, I mentioned that I was only a few pieces of Primal Mooncloth away from making the complete set.

But that I didn't make any of the items because I was considering selling the cloth and funding my Paladin, keeping it to trade for Spellcloth at a later date if I ever switched back to Shadow since farming would be faster that way or holding the comps just in case the Priest class gets fixed in the near future. It's taken roughly 40 days for me to make the cloth alone and all told, the comps and cloth together are worth 3000g minimum on most servers.
Imagine my shock and terror when I logged on to make another piece of cloth and found all of my comps gone from the bank!!! I completely panicked. I logged out and back in to make sure there wasn't a glitch. I was so caught up in the fact that all the comps were missing from the bank that I hadn't even looked at my character. What did I see when I did? Alysianah, my priest, was in the full Primal Mooncloth set. I was like WTF!! Then I remembered, all too late, that my son had been on my Priest.
I screamed his name and he came in to see what I wanted. I could hardly get the words out of my mouth. I was like a village idiot - my mouth hanging open just pointing and the screen. He smiled and said, "Yeah, isn't it cool? I saw you had collected all the comps, so the last time I was on your account I made the two missing pieces of Mooncloth and made the set. I socketed the belt but you dont have enough gold to socket the chest."
I was speechless. I tried to mumble out an explanation of why I didn't actually make the items. He didnt get it. He said the stuff I was in was crap PVP gear and that I couldn't main heal in it. He looked so proud and said that he'd done some of my quests, so I should go ahead and finish my attunements for Kara now that I had this nice set. When my shock wouldn't allow a reply, he shrugged his shoulders and left.
I felt like William Shattner. I threw my head back and roared,
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG... I pity you that... but at the same time it's hilarious in a "it happened to someone else" kinda way.

At least you weren't hacked.

Note: Sharing account information with others can compromise its security. (or so Blizz tells me in the "tips" section while loggging in)
I am sure he was just trying to help you out, but I can imagine your frustration. I have been saving my enchanting mats for about a year just in case a nice enchanting recipe drops I want to be ready. If I logged in and found my Green daggers glowing with crusader goodness, and my bank empty, I would probably turn into slow motion man. "Noooooooooooooooo"
On a side note, I never realized what you were talking about when you said the priest class is jacked up, until now..... I ran Ramparts 6 times this weekend, and I have to say that as a holy priest, I am pissed off that most of my heal spells work exactly the same, with many of them having the same cast time!!!?? I find myself spamming greater heal with a flash heal everynow and then, meanwhile my lesser heal hasn't been used since level 25, desperate prayer sucks ass and usually if I have to use it I am dead already, and renew tends to get me mob rushed more than it should IMO.
Desperate prayer desperately needs to be revamped to allow casting on other players. The last boss on Ramparts proceeded to drop our tank in 2 shots just about every time which meant I spammed flash heal until I was /oom. bad deal.

Grats! ;)
My BE priest is 50. Fortunately, I prefer Shadow to wack-a-mole, although I do have some healing gear. I'm just thankful that Shadow is useful at endgame now.
Oh, and I'm very happy that Tailoring got a boost. I'll have 300 on that in a couple of days.

Oh screw the Shatner freaks. I want back my Mooncloth! LOL
Eh, I'm over it. Oh well, guess that leaves the Paladin to make her own gold. *grumble grumble*

That stupid ramparts dragon fight almost requires two healers. There's just no other way to keep everyone up during the transition when the dragon lands and fears.
On a side note sharing an account with even trusted family members can lead to bad situations. One of my friends once logged in to find that his brother had moved all of his low level horde alts to the night elf starting zone somehow while leaving their hearthstones in the bank.
