#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Evergrey]

Seriously? They didn’t dps at all? I would have voted to kick them on the spot. Thats beyond lazy for the amount of healing downtime this game has.

Yeah, there were those who simply didn't do anything if there wasn't anything to heal.
Some were probably kicked due to it ofc.
But there were ofc those who argued against it, saying that kicking them would be an act of Prohibited Activities, like:

• Unjustified usage of Vote Dismiss --Kicking someone despite they're playing their role (Healer (not a dps))
• Expressions that compel a playing style --"I'm playing a healer not a Green DPS. You don't pay my sub!"
• Expressions that attempt to unilaterally exclude someone from the game or content/community, etc. --Keeping someone from progressing/partaking in the game.

There are probably more that could be used, but you get the drift.
FFXIV players are quick to bring stuff like this up whenever anyone has anything against someone pretty much.

And that was what Yoshi mentioned when speaking of not adding more offensive skills in that pre-EW interview. As it would put pressure on the healers from the other group members to use them, where from history that didn't really work out too well.
