    Some DO WANT to be carried. I wanted to help a Shinryu EX clear party and a tank joined and literally said "This is my first time doing this. Is it OK if I joined?". At least they were decent to let the party know before they trap us. And of course you also have the ones that join HW unsync EX trials that didn't even bother to watch a guide or get some little understanding of the mechanics.

    I didn't say NOBODY wants to be carried period. also can you please point out where in the tanks message he said he wanted to be carried? I must be blind since all I see is "This is my first time". if its not ok for him to join you coulda just politely told him no, since it was a clear party.

    And when I said some DO WANT, I was referring to the set you mentioned. And in that set, some do join with the intent of being carried and they don't have to explicitly state that (doesn't make them brainless). And you'll see a lot of them in unsynced clear parties and older content of the current expansion. They join hoping that their lack of understanding of the fight mechanics wouldn't hold the team down too much and that the team will put the needed work clear the content.

    As for the tank I mentioned, we did kick him out. He didn't have to explicitly ask to be carried, as I stated. But he did try to join a fight with 0 knowledge about its mechanics and hoping to get a clear while making the rest of the party do the majority of the work and more to fix any mistakes he does.

    What "I" consider to be carrying is when you let the rest of the team do more work to cover up for your mistakes, lack of understanding of fight mechanics or your class. E.g. when you're a DPS class and your DPS is lower than a tank's DPS in endgame content. Doesn't matter if you're doing it intentionally or not. You're being carried in that scenario.
