I feel like this is a popular forum myth that I have never actually seen happen in my five years of playing. I myself have been given friendly advice and pointers on a number of jobs in DF and no one has ever gotten kicked or berated for it. I've had tanks point out that I needed to keep Enochian up when I was still learning BLM back in the day, to keep Death's Design up on the target when I was learning RPR. Other players told me to trust my HoTs more when I was learning AST because I was overhealing too much, and various people helped me on mechanics that I was messing up on. And all of it was a huge help.

I mean, if you're a jerk about it then yeah, you'll likely get reported. And I have found that a lot of people legit don't know the difference between "Hey RPR make sure you're keeping debuff up, big DPS boost," and "Jesus what's up with your DPS dude???"

And that's not an exaggeration.
