I am sorry to hear you’ve encountered bad apples & that can be detrimental on trying to be motivated to play Eorzea.

Keep this in mind though, time’s change as it is the course of most MMOs & experience is subjective as it is irl.

Try to be hopeful to play again & avoid certain odds, people etc., or have a break from it till time again.

Don’t let it discourage you.

PS: We’re on a dry-phase/limbo till Dawntrail + holidays.

PSS: Try to relindle/reconnect with ingame friends, don’t generalize its entirety of it
