it rarely is 1 newbie vs 7 others. In most cases it is 5 newbies 3 others, or 4 v4. You can't speak for 7 others, just yourself.

Also if you actually read what I said, in no way i'm suggesting to make ff14 into ff11. I was comparing the communities, and how ff11 was new player friendly for 11 years, and that ff14 is not. Considering your rude response.

new players are a bread and butter for mmo. They should feel welcomed into a community. We are suppose to work as a team, not treat others like npc.

oh and my g.f played ff11 for a year at first with 2 hours a day, she never treated anyone rudely for choosing to watch cs, nor did she make them skip. Waiting for group members shows a basic level of teamwork, it welcomes new players.

ypu act like everyone but you is an npc. why do you play mmo with that attitude. Speak for yourself not others.

but did they make you? Did they tell you skip or else? did they tell you to suck it up?

my gf played it 8 years, outside of her dislike of rdm healer only groups, she had a pleasant time.


asking the both of you, how many threads of this coming up do you need to read before getting a wake up call to how rude it is to just speed run dungeons with out people of your group.
