    More often than not when you try to help someone all you get back is "don't tell me how to play", "you don't pay my sub" or some variation of the two. People don't like unsolicited help no matter how much you sugarcoat that help.

    It also depends on how you are saying it. If it comes out like a command, I can see people taking offence. If you say it as a "Hey, I noticed this, if you try using XYZ you might be able to get higher DPS/hold agro better/have an easier time healing" you will usually get better responses...usually.

    People started to meme it after other people started using it unironically, the meme was or is trying to make fun of those people, who do exist.

    I know one of those people, he's always complaining about people not minding their own business telling him how to play, and always complaining about being kicked, we have tried to reason with him but he's one of those people who follows the "as long as we're not wiping you can do whatever you want". I just actively avoid partying him now.

    If they accept the help, that's good.

    If they get pissy, you can smirk at how you lowkey called them terrible.

    I'm not seeing a downside, here...
