Is it unreasonable to seek people at the part of a fight as you are?

The JP playerbase is naive about and doesn't understand the culture of the NA playerbase. The NA playerbase has developed the way it has because of the apathy of many players as much as it has because of "elitism". In JP, it's the norm for everyone to give their best, to care about contributing to the group as much as possible. In part, the "elitist" attitude the end game NA community is stereotyped as having is justified and is a reaction.

Here? Not so much. The chronic afker, the ruin spamming SMN, the single target Doton NIN, the Dragoon not using Heavy Thrust, the healer prioritizing dps over healing, the tank stopping for several minutes between each pull just to stand around, all the result of apathy as much as the result of lack of skill, if not moreso.

IN JP, I'm also pretty sure complete new people wouldn't be raising a fuss about people at certain points in a fight not wanting to go back to square one constantly. In fact, they'd probably understand and simply find other new people to do it with.
