This gives the party leader the choice to take you or not. If he says yes, go out there and show the farm group what you're capable of. If he says no, even though they're being petty, accept gracefully and move on. Maybe even start your own PF.
    No it isn't being petty at all, why should I take a gamble on someone? There's no reason at all to take someone that hasn't managed to clear it in a farm party.

    My requirements for T6? i110 and HA weapon (Nexus only acceptable if you have HA too). Some might think that's ridiculous. I, however, enjoy my efficient farm party that is reliably killing the thing and getting loot. This party is no place at all for a newbie. Someone is going to point out "but HA and Nexus are both i115 wtf", and that person has missed the point entirely.

    Your party, your rules. Though I may not like your answer, if I want to be an upstanding part of the community, I should take that answer gracefully and wish you luck. I agree that getting a /tell from someone who says they know the fight but haven't cleared is a gamble. Some are willing to take that risk, others are not. I will either join with someone willing to risk, or go join a clear party.

    Perfectly normal. It takes on average ~21 kills to see 9 unique weapons. We got our last one on #18. This number is now higher since NIN was introduced.

    Many groups have had wipes <5%, caused by a number of factors but especially thunder. This is part of learning, which you know, is part of increasing your experience.

You just refuse to acknowledge or accept that probably because of one or perhaps both of those reasons I just gave. Talking to you is like talking to a brick wall at this stage and it serves no further purpose as long as you remain in that state of denial so from this point on I plan to ignore you.
    Funny, you seem like a brick wall yourself since you keep saying clear experience doesn't count for anything. Which makes no sense whatsoever. I farmed up every drop from Coil1, have over half from Coil2, and every primal drop outside of a few weapons from Ramuh/Shiva (which are unimportant outside glamor). I have a pretty broad range of experience when it comes to farming things.
