    In my experience though, it's not even about that. It's just that there are SO many that "need" the hand holding. And the people who don't aren't enough to compensate, so it's expected near all the time.

Thats the sad part about some of the people in this game its like walking on egg shells patience goes a long way in making people better at the game not insults or put downs.
    I've seen it many times, and i've seen it not happen either. But the fact is it does happen. Having patience doesn't mean anything when the person doesn't care HOW you say it, just trying to tell them to play any way other than how they do already is grounds for insults.

    I've seen it too when someone says hey guys its my first time usually if its a tank or healer people tense up but from my experience when we explained to them the dungion/boss's fights and didn't ream them when they made a mistake they would seemingly over perform because wait for it they were in a non hostile environment. Saying things such as GJ *insert player name here* after the new player successfully does his job in a new instance goes a long way. But tomato tamato I'll just agree to disagree.

    Except in my experience that doesn't happen as oiften. Making the environment non-hostile, doesn't change their views. It's still you trying to tell them how to play. Is it always that way? Of course not, but I've seen it more than not.
