Some players just have no patience and are goblins about "looking busy" even when they're the one being carried. It is far more likely that the tank or the healer DPS "helps a teeny-tiny bit" when the DPS keep eating dirt. If the DPS keeps eating dirt that is a net DPS loss. If those DPS want to whine about healers not DPS'ing I better see them not taking a single bit of avoidable damage.

It is factually incorrect to claim that content is unclearable without the healer DPS'ing. If people really gave a care about their DPS, every single DPS would be a black mage since they have the highest DPS output. No ranged DPS at all. That DPS gap between having 1 DNC/MCH/BRD vs one BLM is bigger than the Healer DPS'ing at all.
Hahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!! What are you on? please share.

Where did they say the healers are not meant to DPS, please link?

If the healer doesn't DPS you will NEVER go past enrage at min ilvl. The amount of damage healers do is actually not that bad. They are not doing the same amount of damage as a BLM or Sam would, but healer damage is important as well.

Just because you can be a heal bot in a trash dungeon, doesn't mean it's valid for everything available in the game.
