QQ more
Fun stuff but is so genre specific as to obfuscate the meaning. So as a public service I will attempt to break it down From World of Warcraft (WoW) into human (n00b)
First off 'Ninja Raider' this is someone in game who is greedy and employs all sorts of tricks (some mentioned in this song) to get the good stuff from game (ph4t l3wt aka Fat Loot)
pug is a TLA for Pick Up Group. Many of the adventures in WoW require additional players to help you out. If you do not have people you know, or they are busy elsewhere you can attempt to get a group of random players.
Flying rug refers to a mode of transportation in game.
Hunter is a class of player character in game. Hunters have a pet that will fight for them while they tend to use a distance weapon. They have quite a bit of versatility in game.
'mad heals' 'mad skeelz' is a reference to being very good at something. Healers in WoW keep you alive by replenishing something called health. skeelz is simply skills.
'Serpent sting' is a hunter skill that does damage over time (dot). After this skill is applied to the 'bad guy' (or mob) every second it will eliminate health.
The use of the term 'mob' for enemy or 'bad guy' goes way back to one of the oldest internet game clients called MUD (mutual user dungeon). It referred to an enemy that was mobile, in other words it did not stay in one place and allow you to choose to attack or not.
Cloth gloves refer to armor in wow. Armor provides additional skills and protection in game. There are many different types of armor and different classes are limited by what they can and should use. Cloth is not great at stopping damage so it is used primarily for those characters who stand back and try to avoid up close combat. Hunters use Leather and Mail armor.
The 'roll greed' or 'roll need' is a game mechanic in WoW that allows a group to access to some loot that appears on a mob after it dies. A window appears that lets you choose greed (which means you want it for profit) or need (which means you can use this item to make a character perform at a higher level. The system will award the item to the people rolling Need first then Greed second. In other words, if you are the only one in group who says 'Need' you will get that item.
In this context a hunter rolling need on on a cloth item is bad form or Ninja Raiding the loot.
Next comes the line of QQ's. QQ is a letter emoticon for crying eyes. So someone saying QQ is saying 'go cry about it'. Typically you see 'QQ more' (go cry about it more!) or 'Less QQ more pew pew' (Less crying more fighting).
'10 man OS' is an adventure setting in game (instance) called the Obsidian Shrine. In there you fight dragons and it needs some good cooperation from the players if you want to survive.
DPS is Damage Per Second. The more damage you can produce the faster the mobs die. Trash is the lesser mobs that are more annoying then dangerous. So the hunter has her pet killing the annoying 'trash mobs' to allow the other players to fight the dragon without interference.
'Everything is a Hunter weapon' refers to the fact that hunters can use any style of weapon in game and any bonus ability that a weapon has can aid a hunter (some less then others).
Sarth is Sartharion the big bad guy (boss) in the Obsidian Shrine. Loosing a top DPS can mean death for everyone.
b o e means Bind on Equip. In WoW items can be passed among other players or even sold at an in game auction. These items are designated as bind on equip, because they are transferrable until someone 'attaches them' to their character then they become soul-bound and can only be used on that character. The other types of gear are BoP (bind on pickup) which cannot be transferred ever.
A guild is a number of people in game who are members of a group that helps each other out. These groups have a cache of goods in a bank that can have mutual access for mutual benefit.
Raids are larger adventures (like the OS above) that require 10, 25, or 40 players working together. These have the highest difficulty and give the best rewards.
Ulduar is one of these larger adventures or Raid Instances.
/gquit is a command you can type into game to leave the guild you are a member.
beserker is an enchantment that is favored with hunters.
So there you go. More then you wanted to know about a subject you might have had a mild curiosity about... Thank you for reading (if you made it this far.)

There's now a one-hour timer for other people in the group if you loot the Bind-on-pickup items by accident. It lets you trade the item to someone else from that group (only who was with your character for that part).
