The whole thing is messed up, you don't know a fight? the common answer is "watch a video!" You state your opinion or ask a general question and you have 100% of chance for someone to come & flame you on it.
Something new got into fashion now too, its these "You will be trashed down, mocked & kicked off the party if you fail" parties, I mean wtf, its alike bullying, and bullying is an act punished by laws in RL.. I really don't get what is going wrong but the whole thing is going way too far sometimes.

This game has an awesome community or at least the server I'm on does. I have never had a player be rude to me in this game.

You can be elitist without being rude or toxic, both in game and outside.
E.g.
In game, replace "You will be kicked for screwing up" to "You will be invited to this wonderful linkshell of people if you do well" and it will come across a lot better.
-> Do a few runs, then send the folks on their way and ask them to try again another time.
At the end of the day, you will also have a nice pool of folks to look in for those "weekly wins" too.

Yes. Those parties where they threaten to kick, humiliate, and shame people for making mistakes are IMO toxic and disgusting. It's as if people feel that using fear to "motivate" others is the only way.

After reading the forums so much in the past week I think a large part of the forums are toxic..butt that does not speak for the community as a whole. But I have little faith in most people who even open their mouths on the forum because it is always constant complaining and doom predictions.
