Especially when playing as DPS - then I'm more interested in just completing mechanics and where I am on the enmity list, I'm not really watching whether the Dragoon has backflipped off the edge of the arena again, whether the Bard has died to the same mechanic they did earlier, or whether the Ninja beside me has a rabbit on their head (All of which I've done, but lets not talk about that... )

And most content is so out-levelled now that most mistakes are easily remedied anyway. There may be the occasional less patient player who makes a big issue out of nothing but they seem to be few and far between. The community here is very kind compared to other games I've played in the past.
That dragoon was just tanking the floor again :P Nothing to see here

I think the last trial I did was one that definitely added to my general anxiety of playing with others. After each sprout had died; instead of rezing a single person; the high level players ignored us all and beat the boss. It's not fun to watch a boss fight from the floor and its crap behaviour that makes the community look really bad.
