First response: Lol endgame raiders are super effing toxic watch out for them

That was so far out of left field it came out of right field.

That aside, I'm glad you enjoy the game! I hope you find as many good friends and fun stories in this game as I have :)

I swear its like we can't help ourselves but to shit on people's happy days just because forum's muck is the norm.

Smh

I'd rather a topic about a happy occasion and a happy player stay happy, personally.

Could I have phrased it better? Certainly, but the point I was trying to make still stands.

There's nothing wrong with being realistic but where's the context in OP's post to apply it?

Truth is you did the human thing and couldn't help yourself.

Guys can we please get on topic before this thread gets shut down? The OP was simply stating they met nice people. Lets not ruin that almost immediately.

OP, I'm super happy you found a great group! I run into a lot of them, you just gotta be friendly and social. Sometimes, first!
Enjoy your journey through Eorzea and simply cut the foes that stand rudely in your way down with a quick swing of your own kindness and patience!

Well I deleted the post. Reported it beforehand though so SE can see just how caustic I am to the community and act from there. Yes, I accept I'm a human, yes I make mistakes (even though I shouldn't). The negative first post is now gone, and with my posts reported we can get back to this thread being positive.

Thanks Everyone. Currently trying to Lv up with quests. I have dealt with MANY types of toxic players not in a few games but overall in my whole Gaming years. and if there one of the few things I learn is that dwelling on such matter just hold you back. I'm going to enjoy this game too the fullest! SO LET'S GO! I SHALL PURIFY THIS WORLD!

Glad to hear you're enjoying the game. It is a lot of fun.

Hey, welcome to Eorzea! So great to hear that you are having a nice time, that you are enjoying the game and encountering some shiny people :). Of course, there will be the odd meanie, but overall I have found the community to be so positive surrounding this game. Hope your journey continues this way!

That's a great outlook to have. And don't let the foums fool you. I just came back to the game about 2 months ago and only ran into one less than savory player while grouping. Everyone else has been great and decent. This community is far from being as toxic as many claim. Even in the endgame.

Welcome to Eorzia.
There are some toxic and some players are elitist but it is not the largest % thankfully
Hope you have a great journey
