    My experience has been that these almost never fill. I pretty much have to wait until the stuff becomes DFable, and by that point it's too late; almost everyone competent has the fight on "farm" status and doesn't care to run the fight with newcomers anymore.
    That still has never been a valid excuse to ignore the requirements someone set for their party. Sneaking into a farm-party has always been wrong and the fact that people still did it lead us here, to this situation.
    My experience with bonus-people sneaking into farm-parties is btw the following: Duty loads in, bonus message appears, someone asks "who has bonus?", everyone starts linking some drop from the encouter to prove they have cleared it. No one speaks up about their bonus for two minutes. The first person leaves. The whole group leaves. The group disbands and the time of 7 people has been wasted because someone thought "No bonus? That doesnt apply to me!"

    I'm very willing to help newcomers, a lot of people actually are! Each time this discussion comes up I see plenty of people saying the same thing: I'm willing to help, but I also want to reach my own farming goals and I need the means to ensure I can do that.

    I'm very willing to join a clear or practice party. I'm very willing to help a newcomer. I'm even willing to accept a new person in a farm-party as long as they asked.
    I'm NOT willing to help or even tolerate a person who thinks they can ignore requirements and joins a farmparty without having their clear. Those people can gtfo and end up on my blacklist straight away.

    Stop trying to make lying and ignoring requirements sound okay and the only way for you to play the game.
    I would offer you my help if we were on the same datacenter and I do hope you'll find decent learning and clear parties for the upcoming content - but if you really think its okay to join farm-parties with bonus and without asking if thats okay, I'm very glad they put this restriction in place now.

    Just quoting this part to say I think and do the same as Vidu, to respond to Fynlar's post as well.
