    I'm not going to have any "social troubles" in this game because I have enough people to play with that I'll never have to deal with bad PUGs if I don't want to. I was making the point that there are terrible players out there that have attitudes like yours, and act flippant whenever they're wasting other peoples' time and think they're in the right because "it's just a game". In case you're wondering, that's not me saying if you're a good player or not- I have no idea since I've never played with you. It's about this dispelling attitude people have that other peoples' time is suddenly less valuable when it's for an unimportant activity. That they act defensive about it if I try to give well-meaning advice is just the cherry on top- and since you're continuing to be passive aggressive (a term you don't seem to understand) about it, I should note I've helped many players through this way too, so I think I'll stick with my method of being a mostly no-nonsense sort of person.

    Lastly, taking official blurbs for Warrior from back in 2003 or whatever isn't helping you prove anything. Rune Fencer was referred to as the "third" tanking job multiple times since its creation so it's obvious they've long since abandoned the idea of Warrior (and Beastmaster, since they tried that at one point) of being tanks other than for really outleveled content.

    If you have no social troubles on the game then why were you complaining about them to me and blaming my attitude for them? I'm confused.

    Anyway, I really don't understand why my opinion it's silly to be annoyed at a warrior for using a shield means is to blame for terrible players being unresponsive to your advice . And I have yet to see you give me a reason I can understand as to why that's the case. All you seem to be able to do is accuse me of being passive aggressive because I don't agree with you.

    I've played with warriors who use shields that are good players. They weren't terrible at all.

    And I was just using those exerts from SE's site and ffxiclopedia as examples. I wasn't really trying to prove anything beyond the fact that not everyone thinks the same way they do and they need to accept that and stop pushing their own opinions about how a job should be played onto everyone else as if it's the law of the land.
