    I said it before and will say it again.FF14 has one of the worst if not the worst community there possibly can be.It doesnt affect me at all since i have my own FC and raid grp to do thgins but on those odd days where i try to help others with joining random dungeons or via party finder i see how toxic and unfriendly the players are towards new players who just want to learn the fights and boy i do feel for them.The funny thing is that those "elitist" players are always worse than the new guys who even tho they have no clue about a certain fight still perform better overall(less deaths, better adaptation to random situations).

    TC, don't let Party/Duty Finder groups ruin your fun. They might be in the majority but you have an FC that seems to care and enjoy running with you.
    Unfortunately a big part of the attraction of an MMOs is for people to lord over other players. People have high standards and short tempers, they can't cut anyone slack because within their delusions of grandeur they cut themselves no slack (even though they do). It's just a self fulfilling prophecy and an unfortunately common attitude. I mean look at all these people in the thread unable to believe the OP's story that he got unfairly dogpiled, as if such things are so unheard of, but bad players ... that's gotta be it no one would just make that up right? No one would just insist you're bad without having the understanding or facts, right?! If someone called this guy bad he must be bad, when I call people bad they're bad, so it's gotta be that.

    It becomes a sort of selective memory, oh if the BLM had bad DPS a few runs back, be sure to bring that up. Never apologize for how many plumes you ate on the last run, always downplay your own mistakes. It's just really unfortunate because it's the ACTUAL bad way to play, gameplay mistakes really can be easily fixed, but these kind of behavioral issues cannot be easily fixed. Best bet is to disregard/kick/ignore these people the second you see a hint of this behavior.

    Eh I'm going to disagree with you there. I see a lot of great behavior and have really fun runs. It's all a matter of luck and attitude.
