Making mistakes and not knowing all the content at all times is perfectly fine. It’s not a bannable offense.

I once encountered an honest-to-gods-literal-zero-DPS-healer... in a current savage. Even that wasn't worth the effort to file a report. Or say anything at all that might be construed the wrong way and get myself banned. Because at least they were pushing their heals.![]()


I'm really sorry to hear that. If I was still subbed, then being in EU I'd try and persuade you to join me to try the 'current' unreal and to prog some extreme. If you put a blind group, no guide, it really is quite fun. Unfortunately you need to be in it for the fun prog and the clear. Because if you are in it for fun + rewards your plumb out of luck.well these days i do have problems with normal group content because of 7.0 graphics that makes seeing bosses AoE attacks quite hard in many boss fights and then there is times when i'm simply too focused doing my DPS rotation that i forget to keep eye on combat it self and mostly ended up dying on either boss AoE attacks or on the boss mechanic.
Players who black list me to avoid be in endgame content with me then they don't have anything to fear about me be with them when i haven't done any endgame content since 2014 because back in 2014 i tried to do The Coils of Bahamut raids but i never able to complete The Binding Coil of Bahamut - Turn 5 and since then i haven't tried to do any endgame content when i know that i will never able to complete them.
And since 2014 i haven't used party finder to join party or recruit party members for endgame content either.
(That means joining farm parties with people who are staring down 50 clears, and then things start to get a bit more intolerant and a lot less fun.)

Dying is okay when learning stuff, the game teaches you mechanics via killing you.
Not enough people realize that death is a good thing in this game.

Your name is "undead"! Even when you die, you will be alive!!
The name joke aside, it is punishable to become toxic towards players who make mistake, and want to learn from it rather than other way around!
I think I would have a permanent ban if this was the case ^^ I am a very easily distracted player who dies a lot ! But we get up and try again! Do not worry!
Only thing is: Do not trap PF! Bad days happens, and often I myself catch the desire "can I just join a prog PT that is beyond my practice point so I can at least try it?" After a week not seeing my prog point of 8-10 hours a day, hours and hours attempts in PF and never seeing prog points can lead to "I give up and join an advanced PT"
Even though I am at the point, I try to remind myself how awfully nervous I get in an advanced PT and make more dumb mistakes, in this case I am harassing the PT!!
So this is the only really case you need to pay attention of when it is OK to make many mistakes or not.
These do not apply to dungeons/alliance raid etc!
It is more in regards to Chaotic/savage/ultimates/extremes with PF!
Wrong, got a ban for removing a spammer from NN






NN is a cesspool, I stopped caring after years of watching NN be used solely as global chat and hijacked by mentors who just talk and questions/concerns get lost in the middle of nonstop conversation.
NN was really nice in 2020 when I joined, mentors there were actually helpful and it made me want to give back at some point later.
Same spammers, trolls, spoilers, keep showing up with 0 consequences and if anything you're more at risk for getting banned yourself for dismissing someone from NN. There's alot of 'I'll be a nuisance, but if you kick me I'll report you'.
But this is abit off topic...

Dying to mechanics is fine long as you are making a effort to stay alive as much as possible. Players will notice and not get to upset if at all. If you stand around taking everything to the face, then you could possibly be kicked. But a ban is extremely unlikely to the highest level especially if you are trying.
You will get banned if you type "meowdy", "literally", "tbh ngl fr", "pspsps" or "no salt just vibes".
