Jump Potion...again

No, it isn't. Ironically, it's the same elitism people accuse hardcore raiders of. Should I assume all people who aren't clearing Savage suck? After all, I'm almost through A12S. And everyone who has already cleared should look down on me as a complete scrub they wouldn't dare play with.

There is a difference between being elitist and expect people to take some times to learn their job. Those people will ding 60 and probably try dungeons asap without reading their spells -_-
If I encounter someone having difficulties I always try my best to help if I know the class (and even if I don't I try speculate with him and take the time to try things) but if I encounter someone who skipped it via a potion AND has difficulties...han han, sorry but he had it coming.

Because he doesn't enjoy the story and didn't want to spend 60+ hours spamming esc/numpad 0? Once again, that sounds like elitism. I joined a static with members who have cleared A3S before any nerfs despite having no prior raid experience. My only clears at the time were A9S and A10S. They still took me and the raid leader offered some constructive feedback. Comparing this your statement, I should have been shunned away because I wasn't good enough. You're assuming someone is trash because they skipped story-- in the same manner elitist players assume people who haven't cleared equally challenging content are also trash. Would you judge Mizzteq? She's openly admitted to having skipped all the cut scenes and basically plays only for endgame raiding or to make her guides for the community. Or what about my quote earlier? I leveled through potd and fates. So what exactly did all those dungeons teach me? I didn't even level my two current mains through any of them.

And that's elitism... the same as to expect a new raider who 'skipped' A1s-A8s, now starting with their first raid ever in A9s, to do the other ones (including level 50 synch Coils). Because how should they have learned raiding without that and why should they allowed to learn raiding in current content?

I rather teach someone with an empty head, than someone with a head already filled with the most stupid things... like teaching a new lvl 60 healer to get used to dps right away without him saying "I did 150h of playtime fine with doing no damage in dungeons."

I rather teach someone new than someone who still didn't got all those things MSQ supposedly teaches a new player according to you. Still, after 168h of playing.
And you're concerned about player quality? Then kick those scrubs...

You rather help such a person than a blank sheet?
