    Being elitist just means doing the best you can, in a better/more efficient way than the average player, at least that's what I meant by it.

    Behaving elitist is where you take it the step further and act out on your "elitism", essentially putting yourself higher than everyone else and acting as such.

    I consider myself an elitist, since I've done some of the dungeons so many times that I memorize literally every rotation the bosses do, so I get to the spot where adds will spawn, so I can instantly pick them up or get to where the safezone for a mechanic will be or whatever else happens next in the fight. (if I tank that is)

    But if I get the feeling that, let's say, the healer is relatively new, I'll start my pace slow, so they don't get overworked.

    Being an elitist means "one who is an adherent of elitism: one whose attitudes and beliefs are biased in favor of a socially elite class of people". And can also mean "regarding other people as inferior because they lack power, wealth, or status : snobbish".

    Who says that is not me. Is Merriam-Webster dictionary. If you are a elitist, you are snobbish.

    If you mean that you give the effort to be good, you are not an elitist. You are hardworking.

    As such how? Remembering everytime they owes you for your generosity to go at their rat levels to show how it is done? And to remember that healer who done less than a 95 percentile performance is just a thrash and should uninstall this game right now for good? Those asshole moves is behaving elitist.

    If you slow the pace, you aren't elitist. Elitist would never change something on their own for someone they think inferior. True elitists would call the healer all names before initiate a vote kick on him.

    You're in truth a hardworking player.

    don't combine elite and elitist, they are not the same thing. and the kicker is, you can be an elitist without being elite.

    miraidensetsu is correct for what elitist means. if you're an elitist, you're not nice.
