    It just lets people without the skill to clear clear content...

    I don't want people who can't clear T5 looking for T6+ groups. If we have to get a sub for whatever reason, we need people able to coordinate and do their job properly. If you got carried through T5 because you're either unable to dodge (coordinate) or don't do your job properly, you're just going to waste our time.

    Some people pay to get an exclusive roll on a drop, not just because they can't clear the content.

    Some people also pay just to have 7 other competent players. Just because somebody buys, doesn't mean they're 100% incompetent.

    You may know how to dodge and execute, but that won't mean the 7 other people in your team can do the same when you get a pug

    This ^
    a lion's share (a little more than a third) of our sales are good players who don't die to mechanics.

    True. I banged my head against Titan X for weeks and couldn't down it to save my life. I got to a point where If I had 600K to buy a run, I would have. Luckily, my FC was offering to get some people through it and not only did I get my win (I only died because at the very end, they finished Titan instead of breaking my Gaol), but I helped them with an additional run for another FC member (didn't die that time at all).

    So, just because you have 7 other people that know a fight, doesn't make you more skillful than winless people. It just means that you have 7 other people that know the fight.

    Yes, but it's rare. I can't count how many times I've been in fail Ex primals (Garuda to Levi) and T4 PFs all because of a few players who lie about having experience. If I had the gil, I'd gladly buy a competent party so I can get what I still need. I'm sick and tired of failed pugs, and 90% of the time, the people causing the fails refuse to listen and keep repeating the same mistake that causes wipe after wipe
