No, you actually aren't

It's a known fact -- in WoW if you say "I am good at X" you actually aren't that thing in the eyes of most people. If you say "I'm great at PvP" you probably suck in other folks' eyes.

We tend (in the real world) to have blinders on about our own faults and failings, and often try to bolster our egos (and do some postitive thinking) by making positive statements. But within the World of Warcraft if you go around proclaiming something you are even *more* likely to be wrong. If you say to me "My talents are just fine" after I've asked you a question about them, then I'm 99% sure they're terrible. Not because I've seen them in action or because I know anything about your class or spec, but because in 99% of the cases when someone makes a blanket statement like that while they are in the game they are 100% wrong.

The game is not real life. Don't confuse RL positive thinking with being a total blockhead in game.
