At one point I had a custom add-on that played clips from the Angry Birds theme tune when using the Zealot's Storm of Ravens ability.

Sure is good that doesn't happen.

Private addons to help target callers find enemies of importance you say? Can't say I've ever made one of those.

100% agree with this, but i do feel that something is going on. Often when playing against the more established destro guilds, the very moment that I pop rampage or retribution I am instantly cc'd. It is so fast that usually the skill doesn't even hit once.
Had one fight the other day where this happened 3x in a row in a single fight.
If it was a small scale fight, I would be understanding, but when it's WB or larger fights and it happens regularly...

I should probably point out that Rampage + Retribution are so feared that pretty much any good destro player in a warband is looking out for it, and if you’re doing synchronised Retribution then it just needs one Slayer to start using that ability to cause the AOE interrupts to start being aimed at the Slayer ball. Even using Rampage is often a pretty clear signal that Retribution is about to be used.

Nothing weird, go to the other side, roll a DoK or Choppa and you will notice that your channels also get cancelled (khaines refreshement in case of DoK and Bring it on/GTDC for choppa), its just that people focus on using the aoe interrupts when possible to make sure the most of the channels get interrupted especially if you see a slayerball and one of the slayers has popped off the rampage and is about to go on retribution.
