Yeah, there are multiple threads on AH.com and other places that just make me facedesk.
The whole forum has a casual atmosphere, bad suggestions, lack of knowledge of the jobs, lack of common sense, desire to bitch about things (BLU AF3 DOES NOT LOOK AS GOOD AS I EXPECTED GUIZ), and so on.
After looking around here for a few days I can only hope the dev team does not even read anything here.
Dear SE, can my character be black? I find this pro-white to be offensive.

As has been pointed out dozens of times already, there is a difference between "Having smart gear that's good for the player's means" and "Intentionally using worse gear than the player could have". Walahra Turban and Dusk Gloves are free and 10k-ish respectively, and both handily beat out Aurore head and hands. Aurore feet and legs? Eh, not as huge a deal to me when you've got a newer player, as the alternatives take more effort to get.
Swapping gear is a pretty big deal, too; especially since macros pretty much require just sitting down for 5 minutes, writing them up, and then not having to worry about them for the majority of your playtime.
It's everyone's right to gear however they want. It's also everyone's right to refuse to deal with people who are gearing in a way which would negatively affect their run. I don't see why one is acceptable while another is not.
I wear the Aurore hat and gloves because they have str dex and/or agi on them with the haste which overall helps thf better than the dusk gloves and walmart turban. (sylph term if nobody else has heard of that before).
I actually had somebody tell me that once after being invited to their party. I was mad they wouldn't let me party just because I didn't have either of those on my War. So, that's why I asked when you don't like players getting mad at you because you don't them play with you if they're poorly geared. Your version of poorly geared is different than other people's version. That was an example.
