Players that complain about having to do Dungeons

ELI5 version:

To some people, MMO does not mean forced grouping. They hate the idea of being forced to group, but some will gladly group at their convenience. Their main draw is the large, permanent world and story. I think SE did a very good job with the main story in this game because I don't mind the dungeons, but I can see how frustrating it can get for people that play DPS classes or that don't like being forced to group to finish the main storyline of a game.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. However, that doesn't entitle them to act like jerks, like the ones the OP mentions. People like those are the ones that give a bad name to the "solo" community.
