[Dev1235] Job Adjustments

[Afania]

I told you specifically to view that question in its own context What ever you think my previous POV doesn't matter. I was merely looking for a simple yes or no to a question I asked as directly and clearly with as much detail as I am capable of doing.

I'm not interested in debating different in play-styles or what my point of view was. I have moved passed that.

I just said this playstyle thing is case-by-case. While your question did not specify a playstyle. This is your original question:

When a player you view as a DD assists you with a play-style that is les-efficient in terms of their damage potential while inside a raid or grind you are participating in: do you or do you not view this as punishing you and the rest of your group - even if you can still be successful and the raid or grind is completed?

Again, how can I answer this question if you don't be specific about the job/playstyle? There's no definite yes/no to this question because everything is situational in FFXI.

If a DD come to AA subbing NIN and do less dmg, even if we don't win I still wouldn't view it as a punishment.

If a DD come to yorcia with a sword and a shield, even if we win I'd still view it as an ineffective playstyle unless the DD can convince me otherwise.

Again, if you have a problem with the community(pretty sure I'm not the only one having an issue with a shield DD in this game) because of this, then there's nothing I can do to change that.

Just don't twist the meaning of my opinion into something else. Not accepting certain playstyle that does less dmg is not the same as not accepting ALL playstyle that does less dmg.
