So you take your chances and when you get another error in the middle of a party content, everyone's supposed to suffer and accommodate you? My EVG A8800GT had an overheating problem and I had to un-overclock it (it was factory overclock) to play FFXIV stably. If you know you can downgrade to DX9 and get a stable experience, why would you insist on using DX11 and cause disruption in group content?

I'm not strongly promoting adding a disconnect penalty, but I can agree with it. I am also of the opinion that unless the problem is on Square Enix's shoulders, you should first try to solve it or work around it before doing goup content.

I suppose that's the main difference between the "eastern" way of thinking and "western" way of thinking. If you put "me" upfront, then sure, it's not my fault so you should all accommodate my disconnects. If you put "people" upfront, then you try to avoid causing disruptions. In your eyes I'm being selfish and demand that you degrade your experience, but I'm actually talking from the perspective of someone having the disconnects, i.e., I'm trying to be selfless in upholding everyone else's experience.

I guess I'm in the wrong forum for that.
