Some players need to chill

While I don't disagree people need to generally chill out, but you've not actually explained the situation in which this person was complaining about. Without details, for all we know this person could be entirely correct.

If your server is where you are and you're on Aether DC, then you just ran into a rare occurrence. The vast majority of people in roulettes on Aether, whether they're from Aether or traveled from another DC, are pretty chill and laid back. You will find that random person with a stick up their behind, but they're few and far between.

What I want to know is, what level dungeon was it?

Because if it's anything past Stormblood, there's kind of an expectation of competence at your role. If I'm in Endwalker content healing a Tank with no job stone and two DPS who don't know what an AOE is, I'm gonna start being toxic too if they don't take the hint the first time I (nicely) ask them to straighten out.

Waiter, more 'complaining about bad group without giving full context' posts, please!

The amusing part was the pull was fine and didn't need mitigation, no one died, I couldn't even see what they were complaining about

Every time someone says "everything was fine, idk why the rage quit?" I assume that, in fact, not everything was fine.

I am not going to throw a fit in a dungeon, but I will leave when I realize that it won't be fun because of the very unique playstyle of some.

Now I don’t know what happened to this community. Maybe it’s just the server I’m on. If so I’m considering changing. I just don’t have time or patience for this level of bs.

So here’s what happened. We were running the dungeon, I was on tank. Normally, I’m pretty good as a tank. But I hadn’t played in a little while and the particular dungeon we were in I haven’t run in a long time. Forgot some mechanics ya know. It happens but it’s a leveling dungeon so we will get there eventually. But there was one player just going nuts in the chat. Talking about how they were gonna report all of us and everything.

Guys, seriously? Are we really going to stoop to this? I thought this community was better than this. Ive noticed this happening more and more over the past couple years. Gotta say I’m really over it at this point. I’m a vet so I can take it but that behavior will turn off new players instantly. I left other gaming communities for toxic behavior like this.

Rise up, players. Be better than this. Assist struggling players. Don’t attack them. Because this post is the last time I will be kind about it. So chill guys. It’s just a dang leveling dungeon. This community used to be so kind and patient. I remember seeing posts here about “if you’re new and there’s a cutscene for you PLEASE feel free to watch the cutscene. We will wait and it’s not a problem”. What happened to that? You were ALL new at one point. You all needed guidance at one point. Stop acting like you didn’t.

Just wanna ask like the others what level was teh dungeon? I have had new players at their role in a 91 dungeon. and i was tank so i had ot go "hey quick question are you new to healing?" Most go oh yes i am and i'll do small pulls until they adjust. But wihtotu context of what the dungeon was, the level and such be hard ot know what level of expansion it is

I agree that some folks need to chill. I get tired of seeing people woof and moan in the chat when I get dropped in Praetorium or one of the Crystal Tower A-Raids.

But the lack of details leads me to believe a yarn is being spun. :confused:
