A returning players thoughts on the community

[Vahlnir]

point 1) when I left the game the community was still friendly towards one another and the elitist asshattery didn't infect the community yet there were a few bad apples and the community looked down on them.
Point 2) When I was reorientating myself back into playing this game I was asking legit questions if there were any significant changes to Limsa and other major cities. Players usually know better than a forum or patch notes as players are the ones interacting with the game.
point 3) I did say "hello miss I am a returning player" and just asked a few questions that were not hard to answer in my opinion if they were up to date on things and her first response was "do I know you?" and replied, "I am returning player most likely no" and was by how the person was typing with a lot of "..." that was my cue to stop talking to her and I did apologize for asking her a couple of questions. and I asked someone else who just said, "look at the patch notes" as this goes back to my answer to point 2.
Point 4) That is not a generalization when the statement of "Is this is how the community has become?" is because of that interaction with the person that had me dogpiled and falsely reported for asking them to kindly move. you left out the context of why I made that statement.

And the point I was trying to make remains intact. So yeah, you were and still are making some sweeping generalizations that don't quite fit the reality of the situation. I'm not defending the jerks. I never do. If things played out as you said then I'd say they were mostly in the wrong. But don't mistake the actions of a few for the actions of many. I didn't leave anything out, but I still feel like you might be.

just not listening to you there is a difference, as you do not represent the community.

So you acknowledge that a troll doesn't represent the community and yet you are quick to judge it, albeit inaccurately? Color me confused.
