There will always be toxicity in PvP. You probably see it way more yourself, because that spam is likely applied to you. Haha! It's a lot more different when playing PvE content when trying to overcome an obstacle with your teammates, and because we're up against NPC's, it doesn't feel too much of a big deal if we wipe. However, it's a lot more different in PvP where you can play well, and it takes one idiot with half a brain cell to drag the entire team down, by doing no damage, and dying to absolutely nothing because they can't press the recup button, thus constantly staggering the team and making the fight unwinnable. Of course people are gonna be toxic. It's less of a big deal with losses feel more justified where they can somehow blame themselves, but losing to other players due to another player on your team making it a 4v5 the entire match is frustrating as all hell.

It's the reason why FFXIV players don't like PvP and Yoshi P knows this. He understands the nature of the playerbase, which is why we will always have the quickchat function to protect player's feelings. Do you know how much people will get banned from their impulse to talk crap to each other? I'm disappointed but at the same time glad that we have a quickchat system, because I would of got banned with the sort of things I would love to say to certain players in my data center.
