Playing FFXIV as a Au Ra. ( playing as if I was a new player) ( A little bit annoyed)

Thank you Ashkendor.

Furthermore, has anyone actually tried to make a PF and check those boxes for newcomers only, slow paced, no cutscene skipping? Takes about 3 hours+ (being generous) to fill up if you don't have any friends to call upon. This is in Adamantoise, which is a med-pop server as well. So unless you have an FC whose willing to undersize it for you, new players are the ones who usually get completely and utterly shafted.

Before we got our fourth for our static, I would put up this in party finder all the time. We already had our tank and healer roles filled, just needed anyone to join and we were set. Not a single time did anyone ever join. I even spent a good hour or two waiting as well. I would even pm someone standing right next to the dungeon entrance, obviously new and going in for the first time like us, and they would ignore me or not know how to reply. I think new players are too scared or just don't know enough to make these tools work for them.

And I can say this with confidence, the attitude of this thread is what makes us (as in my static) not want to play with others, as it is prevalent every time we look into doing this stuff.
