    i'm not really sure why you would think that, but you're entitled to your opinion.

    the way i see it, anytime i queue up for a CM, i've just shortened the wait time of all those dps going through it for their first time (although that's pretty rare, more often than not everyone at least has a primal weapon - which is unattainable before you've finished the story?)

    i don't really mind that they aren't thankful that i'm doing philanthropic CM clears for them, but if they're unhappy about me doing all the heavy lifting for them, i'll be unhappy right back at them :s

    A solution to this problem?

    I have a possible solution to the problem of having to deal with the speed-run people for those that want to enjoy the cutscenes, at least on their first go through a dungeon:

    I'm on the Midgardsormr server and am not even high enough level on the job I want to finish the story with (WAR, currently at 36), so the need to do those high level dungeons isn't even on the near horizon yet. But after reading thread after thread about people with this problem, I created a linkshell called "Dungeon Help LS". It's primary purpose is to give people who want to go through the cutscenes on their first run though the opportunity to do so without people complaining at them. The LS will be full of people who are willing to go through a dungeon like the high level ones and give the person a chance to actually enjoy the storyline of the dungeon!

    Another benefit of this linkshell is for people who want to help others with lower level dungeons, giving friendly guidance on safe ways to do the boss fights (I know I did Brayfox's Longstop and had a time trying to figure out how to properly tank the dragon and the other party members had a fit because I couldn't figure it out and I got annoyed with them yelling at me to do it right, when I really was trying.).

    I would propose that someone create a LS like this on EACH server, and have a group of people willing to help others out (those that want the help can join and quit the LS at their leisure....I don't know if there's a limit to how many people can be in a linkshell!)

    If you were as philanthropic as you make yourself out to be, you'd let people who run it for the first time enjoy the cutscenes while waiting for them and explaining the fights instead of powering through with a " hey, you should be thankful I'm doing this for you" attitude.

    But no, when someone tells you you're going too fast you talk down to them, in an impolite manner no less, telling them basically to go **** themselves as you just want to get this over with.

    That's why I have that opinion.
