PSA: Guys, a toxin community cannot survive like the Ascians (and dinosaurs)

Guys, I want you 2 think. Let's say person buys ffxifv, and puts disc in cd-rom, he is saying to himself "Hmm...I wonder if this game has community". He then logs on, and when he finds duty there is only elites. These people who don't ask "how are you", they only say "what is dps" or start pull before healer can even cast pet!

This is toxic. Now this person only sees toxins and he tells friends "ff14 is worst game of MMO." Come on. Look, ffxviv is not only loot. Experiences and reality friends are most important. When you help friend, be nice, or gil trade, you receive "life" loot, not game loot. It helps experience for ALL players, not just elites.

Remember Ascian? (black men in story) They are like elite players from ffivix. No community, or friends, only elites hovering w/ beast tribes and cause more toxins. Now they are evil, and guess what? ONly a few left. You remember dinosaursf? They only eat each other, fight, no community. And guess what? Now look at rock. Is that FFxvii? No, but maybe ? Come on.

Guys, we need to fight elites and not ruin players who installed. A toxin community cannot survive. Thank you.

Found a little problem with your post....

Clearly not a native english speaker, but while he made few spelling mistake he's made a point.

Dinosaurs... no community... You sure about that?

so many trolls hit on the point of spelling. Leave him alone guys. And again as said earlier he has a point.

Dinosaurs didn't disappear because they eat each others.
Animals are still eating each others and we humans are eating any and every animals that fly, swim, roam or squirm on Earth and aren't going to disappear soon.
It's because Raptor Jesus threw a Meteorite Attack on them.

I can't stop laughing.

Jesus please, stop spouting the word "toxic" in every single possible context. Whenever I read these forums all I see is "toxic herp, toxic derp, elitists herp derp".

Get over it already. And thanks for the good laugh buddy.

Sorry, if I was posting in a language that wasn't my native language and I messed up this badly (I can easily forgive small stuff like comma placement and semicolons, I don't even totally recall that) I'd expect to be made fun of for it. Grammar and spelling do not exist just so people can act snooty about it; it's necessary to UNDERSTANDING what they're saying.

Furthermore, the depressing reality is that there are PLENTY of native English speakers who type that atrociously. I have friends that are perfectly intelligent verbally but will type like they're still in middle school.

Now to actually talk about the main point - OP, just find a good guild. It's like this in every single MMO I've ever been on; you'll have your general population of douchebags but there are many, many FCs filled with perfectly fine individuals.

I don't know. I'm 50/50 on him being serious or a comedic genius at this point.

First FF14 thread to actually make me laugh irl. @-@

I presume you mean toxic .. and would point out WOW has been going for 10 years so your theory is clearly wrong.

The dinosaurs ruled the earth for 185 million years. Now, it is known that some species of dinosaurs were toxic. But all in all I think we can agree that if the FFXIV community would last that long it would have to be considered a success. So I don't think you should use dinosaurs as an example of failure.

Is this guy a mindful/realmreborn friend or something?

The example he used is to point out the fact that from his perspective we are "eating" each other and our behavior isn't better than animals. Which is true for so many reasons.

wow is a very bad example simply because it made the common MMO playerbase a bunch of brainless idiots only good to push on a button & call it fun? The list is long here too.

I agree with the OP. Unfortunately, it is impossible to play a game without elitists in it. The only way for you to enjoy this game is to do content with friends. It might take you some time to find said friends, but they're out there. Or simply ignore rude comments made by other players and have fun on your own.

Clever girl..

Are you all new here? Check the OP's post
history and maybe you'll find a clear answer as
to what's going on here.

I guess it depends on which data center you're in. I do all my daily roulette once a day and I've only experience a handful of times. It was typically in HM dungeons and primals.

With that said they should either increase the ilv req or to sync ilv.
