As a tank, runs take too long if you let players argue in between each pull. Especially since people rage at each other in the same way that the OP originally phrased his post. I don't want people to start a fight and rage quit, so I would rather just pull again.

I haven't levelled NIN, but I fail to see how running the wrong buff on 1 DPS class would wipe even Levi Ex. One DPS isn't that important.

Be more patient with them. 4 or 5 wipes is no reason to get upset and QQ about it. You are actually fortunate you got someone who learned it in 4 or 5 wipes and is trying adapt. You'll probably need more than 500 wipes to clear T9 with random people you find on the DF.

4 or 5 wipes to something this easily fixed are definitely cause for being upset. They have less to do with the mechanics of the encounter and more to do with the person knowing what their own skills do. Would you be mad if your tank went in without Shield Oath/Defiance 4 or 5 times in a row? Hell, I'd probably kick them after 2.

They are if they're stunning the crap out of the caster add, which only serves to build up its stun resistance and prevents the Paladin from locking it. Hysteria on the entire party isn't exactly conducive to clearing Levi EX.

@ OP - Honestly, if someone doesn't answer me after several attempts in chat, I throw a few <se.1> in there. Since that's the sound that tells use, people will usually look at the chat box out of reflex at that point.

I don't get sounds playing based on commands like <se.1>. I'm not certain, but I think it's because I already have another sound configured for party chat (as well as another for FC/LS chat, plus the default one for tells). Even if you use "<se.1>" in party chat, I'll just hear the party chat sound, which overrides the sound you specified. (Ok, I guess that's not entirely relevant, since I'm still getting a notification of some kind telling me to check chat, but your mention of using <se.1> made me think of it.)

People will only argue when there's opinions. When it's about facts like "don't stun" or "gather up for heals when such and such happens", then it shouldn't cause an argument. In the op's case, it should be easy to force a reply out of the player in question before making the next try.
