Here's why I will not support this healer strike.

[Supersnow845]

The sad part is I genuinely believe this statement
But let's not put words in people's mouths. At no point did I personally call out you as a raider. You took a sweeping statement and applied it to entirely yourself. When obviously there will be abnormalities. What is embarrassing Is the responses and aggression. Its making me wonder what sense is there even behind this strike other than a desperate plea

This just circles back to the point who the hell cares what anyone’s credentials are, either engage with the substance of the arguments or just don’t reply at all

Like I’m not going to stalk your profile for your “credentials” I just want to discuss with people, why do you need to be so actively hostile then claim everyone else is being hostile

If I’m an “abnormality” and therefore a raider who knows the jobs you still won’t engage with me, do you see how pointless it is to call people out for not knowing the jobs but then when people do know the jobs you still won’t discuss with them

Me not wanting to engage with you has nothing to do with your skill. And everything to do with the way you communicate your points

So I have to be a particular level of skilled in the healers that includes savage, communicate a certain way so as to not insult you and have points you deem to valid while you just spout random nonsense and expect everyone else to heed you

Genuinely I don’t know what I bother

Its simply utterly pointless to engage in a debate with you.because nothing anybody could ever say would change your mind. And not only that but there are better places to do it.

What I will say is this. 7.0 healers are what they are. And until 8.0 is announced in 3 years we won't know anything about the new healers. So this strike now will and has achieve(d) nothing. Not only that. But some if the infighting has actually driven people away. This community is renound for it's non toxicity, so surely you can understand how polarising this is. Many of us having seen what we are seeing from your side just no longer want to engage

Ah excuse me, you're using achievements as gatekeeping tool. This changes everything. /s

Technically it was Lodestone achievements, but the effect is the same; elitism to dismiss criticisms rather than to actually defend their position. It'd be one thing to say "I find healers enjoyable so I won't be striking, I hope you guys find something fun instead", it's another to look through logs/achievements and say "you guys don't have the experience to talk, so I think you're just embarrassing".

Again with the misrepresentation. What's embarrassing is the idea of a strike. And the way its been handled. Not the individual players . Also genuine question. But if one hasn't experienced harder content how can 1 truly criticise a job for being to easy? If all you play is easy content. Then yes. The game will be easy.
