SE decided to not go a way of turning away players because they cannot play it effectively enough to please hot heads, and they have a really good reason for doing so.

Just look at WoW and how terribly toxic it is for anyone new into the game, i know only few games completely ruined by the community and world of warcraft is one of them.
WoW was ruined by Blizzard's questionable to poor decisions and prioritization of profit over and at the expense of creating a quality product. The community isn't anything spectacular, but it's not half the cesspool people seem to like making it out to be either.

Even without parsers, people in this game can and will kick you from a group for bad performance. A lot of times you don't even need a parser to see that somebody's doing it wrong, and if they're doing it wrong enough than the group could very easily justify removing the underperformer. This game is very forgiving outside of the highest end content, and that's great, but an expectation of higher level play is completely reasonable for higher level content.

Anyway, this thread is a mess and a half at this point lmao. Later y'all.
