In large part why I enjoyed ffxi which had enormous openworld content.
    OK but here is the thing...if there was a test to make sure people knew how to play their jobs and roles...and they HAD to do it in order to Q for content of that lvl...and then you see them running scripts, slacking off or whatever...we can call them out...because they passed the test, it means they CAN do more but are exploiting the group for their gain...but trying to figure out "is this person new? clueless? a troll? etc" is unnecessary..they can EASILY do a guildhest style test using NPCs to fill in the roles of other jobs as fillers to train/teach/test people on what to do...it will really help things ALOT because the players will know what to do and they will feel confident...the party members feel content..things gets cleared faster...the only thing one might have to do is explain a fight before hand but at least expect that player to know how to hold aggro..to know how to dps...to know how to heal...using gear increases to boost players will not make the players better

    The best healer i've played with was this week...a whm with 14k hp in G. Library Hard mode...what an amazing healer for the gear he had...I pulled everything and he healed AND dps'd...and I wasn't low or under pressure as I thought I would be with the gear they had and the amount I was pulling...but why were they so great? They used Divine Seal when they had to..kept medica 2 and regen up...etc and ontop of understanding their job and being very able...they were polite...it was a great experience for the whole group they were all very happy with this individual for doing so much with so little...So I don't understand those in these forums saying "Let people play how they want" ie "Don't play right in order to frustrate others and waste their time" this is extremely inconsiderate...would these people accept someone messing around with their application when they are doing government paperwork or something? "No i don't feel like putting the stamp there...I will go do 10 laps around the office instead..I don't care if your family is sick and you have errands to do after this" Come on....
