What burns me up is how so many toxic people exist in our community. I see this post as a way to bring a topic to everyone’s attention. A topic that directly affects the more valuable part of our community. The casual/noob. If I’m understanding what the true intention for the OP was, it was to make everyone aware that our actions can have a negative effect on them. Turning a mode that’s there for them to find a love for PvP/the game into a cesspool of toxic chat and outright shaming, because some of us go overboard, is wrong. Your actions could be the catalyst that turns them away from PvP or ff14 in general. We need people to keep the game alive and continue to have fun.

Too often people show up and derail solid talking points with misinformation, insults, and baiting. It needs to stop. The loud minority is honestly what’s crippling the game. It’s fine to not agree because you don’t feel the same way or have different view point, but you have to know when your feelings don’t match what’s really happening. Instead of trying to pick a fight, why not put that energy into a post that could possibly help the game? You want more out of the mode, why not ask for it instead of white knighting every post you feel is against the thing you like?

Apologies to anyone who lost interest in the topic because someone had to show up with misinformation and taunts for their own sake. If you want to educate people in how to properly play frontline, make a post with details. If you want to play with other like minded people, start a party finder. There’s options anyone can use that isn’t as toxic as jumping on the forums to pick a fight with someone for asking a simple question you don’t agree with.
