Im also not saying nothing would change if logs became open. Im saying it would, it would lead to high end content being gatekeeped by the highest percentile of players and all of the crazy that comes with that. I like that XIV has a good community without people hurling abuse at each other like thats a mini game in its own right, and the unhinged dont have the rule of the roost. Like I said, many of us have teenage kids so dont want to go from meltdowns at home to meltdowns in our freetime.

Also, again, the open logging culture has wrecked WoWs endgame so its not all its cracked up to be.
It's 100% healthy to form groups around similar skill levels and similar expectation levels. Everything else will lead to tension in the goup and sooner or later for the group to break up. The longer you force people together that dont belong together, the more frustration you are creating on both sides.
