Wrongful kicking people on third boss in new Ivalice raid

[Maero]

Well, back when 4.4 came out I got up as soon as the servers to complete NMs and unlock savage, and it was smooth as butter. But we had to go in as a static group because some others couldn't clear in DF later that day. I'd still equate the boost in DF performance to those people who are first to log in when a new patch comes up, they are more dedicated players compared to people who casually show up when they get the time.

Or they are people that do not work for a living and have all the time in the world to game? lol

Because that's his name T.G.Cid, "The Thunder God" Cidolfus Orlandau from FFTactics.
He even announces his name when you enter the arena "I am Cidolfus Orlandau blah blah blah!"
Every Final Fantasy has a Cid and he was Tactics'.

Aaah, okay good - makes sense now, thanks for your inputs XD Never knew that

Or there are actually people who are living in a different timezone, work in shifts, work from home and some may even have their day off. Its funny how people always think that people are unemployed as soon as they are online in the mornings.

Except that's not what Maero was addressing at all.
whiskeybravo said that people who log in as soon as a patch drops are dedicated, implying those who don't, aren't.

Oh its exactly where it belongs because it adds to what he wrote.

People are either not working for a living or are working in shifts, living in different timezones, have a day off and so on. So what is there not to understand?

Just because someone logs in sooner or later doesn't mean they are any more or less dedicated. This way of thinking is flawed at best. On patch day I will get to it when I get to it...yet I consider myself dedicated, perhaps to a fault. The first day and week of a new patch is expected to be somewhat rough in the DF. Not everyone has a high level playing skill. Some are average or below average. And while that can potentially be detrimental to group progress, it is expected to be grouped with at least one such player when so many people are trying to get things done at once.

You are the one not understanding. But ok.
And just because someone logs on first does not mean they are more dedicated

If your not knowing mechanics leads to your raid getting wiped, I'm not sure how anyone can complain about being kicked. There's already guides out there. If you want to go in blind and prog without really trying to clear the raid you can form your own groups with like-minded players. The people who kicked you already know the fight and just want to get their weekly clear. It's nothing personal.
