Do the Legacy Servers Have an Elitism Problem?

The guy that was eventually kicked tried to hide behind this counterclaim when the party initially refused to kick him and wanted him to take the leave penalty.

Ah no. That's not how it works. You cannot report a party for not kicking someone.who would you blame even...?)

Oh, poor little baby doesn't get kicked. What should he do? Leave? Oh, but the precious little thing couldn't possibly survive a penalty for being a dick.

I was under the impression it was 5 minutes to vote kick, and the 15 was for vote abandon?

Thats the difference between "elitist" and "skilled player".

For Sophia Ex with my twink I had some fears. Could only go as AST, which I had not much focus during the last tier of gear. But it was still working very smooth in i225.

But most PF groups are looking for i245 and up. "Elitist" or "skilled"? Thats not the same ;)

Hear on Balmung my FC has over the last 3 years. invited a few people that where not the right fit for us because they where elitist.

We are currently a laid back family of about 20 active members.

I'm thinking, wow you got to be kidding considering my own personal experience: I cleared both A12N and Soph EX with the bare minimum of IL 235. I got to level 60 for the first time last week. Now cleared Soph EX a bunch more times (big shout out to the pug group on Gilgamesh), got soph EX bow, good to go.

But if I were around people like this OT, players like me would have never gotten the chance because of a quick inspection pre-start and then a "AFK; IL too low." This to me begs the question, do the Legacy servers have an elitism problem? Being one of the original servers likely lends to a lot of hardcore/day one players that have these undesirable traits.

No. They don't.
