When is it OK to say, "It's Not OK"

[Tiggy]

I think you intentionally missed most of the point here just to make your argument stick. The point is that the few people still interested in running this content as a static are the same people generally ALREADY in static parties.

To be honest, if the 'endgame' crowd are the kind who look down their noses to everyone else then it's not the sort of clique I'd like to be associated with. I know there's some genuinely good groups out there which are far more tolerant, but the cacophony of trouble makers drowns them out, sadly.

In the last 2 weeks I've helped 3 people get there first wins, and some of them I didn't even know but where instead friends of friends so I know you're talking in generalizations. This is an MMO. I've said before that you need to make friends, be a part of a community, and they can help you out. MMOs are not solo adventures. That's how those 3 players in these last two weeks got wins. They made themselves a part of a community that was then willing to help them out. If you expect magic out of the party finder then you're going to have a bad time. Each one of those parties I was in was filled with people from linkshells, FC, or friend lists. Not one went to party finder. This bit of advice has been repeated in nearly every thread like this and yet time and time again people are unwilling to put in the effort to get to know people.

Less progress for others mean more ego for some. Wouldn't want too many people clearing scob now,would you ? Too many people might make it to t13 before your little group and it wouldn't make you feel special anymore.

This kind of attitude is really uncalled for and just as bad as the people you're hating on. Hate only breeds more hate.
