I know it stands for "Damage Per Second" but when I read it in a sentence it makes no sense to me.
Like if you're giving someone directions to drive somewhere: "You just go down the road on the left and then you Miles Per Hour until you get there." It makes no sense to me.
Can anyone shed some light on what people mean when they say "DPS" as a verb?
Also, to me, it further makes no sense because all damage can be measure by a time interval.

Well to use WoW as a reference.. you're either a tank, healer, or DPS. And with that in mind.. you're either going to be told to 'tank the boss', 'heal the tanks' or 'dps the boss'. Seems a lot easier to say than.. "I need you to just be out of the way of the tanks and not blocking the healers while doing as much damage as you possibly can".. don't you think?
