    Until the same people keep wiping to the same mechanics. No matter how many times you try to help them / coach them. That has been my experience.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    I think the 'kicking for differing play-styles' is what is causing the devs to consider notifying you who kicked you.

    What does that accomplish though? GMs have already said kicking for "differing play-style" is acceptable. Therefore, unless that rule changes, it makes little sense. If they are moving in that direction, it only further incentivize people to not give a damn. Now an Ice Mage can report you for kicking them all because you don't want to put up with carrying them through content. I would like to imagine the devs don't want to encourage that sort of mindset.
