Research a dungeon before you queue up

[Nix]

I just finished up running Praetorium with a group of 8; most were AF only and quite a few were first timers.

I've honestly never had so much fun in a DF group before; I was healing for a tank friend that wanted to complete the story and I thought I could help if I went along with him since he'd had a bad DF experience earlier in the day.

It took me all of 30 sec before each fight to give the new guys a head's up as to what to expect and what the best strategy was; I knew we weren't going to get a speed run, but to be honest I didn't care. I don't mind spending an extra 20~30 min in a run if it means that the people I'm with are having a good time, and if needs-be, learning something new.
We had a couple of wipes (One on each form of Ultima), but we always got it on the 2nd try, it was great and the new guys learned a great deal. After the first try they were stellar.
All it took was 30 seconds of my time; a lot less time than it would have taken to scream obscenities at them and call them names.

If people took a minute to pull the stick out of their ass, they'll find the community as a whole will grow instead of all of this "OMG NO RELIC OR DL IN A STORY PROGRESSION DUNGEON?! U N00B" crap.

I'd totally suggest catching a video if you're going to look into HM primals, but for the most part you learn with experience. Don't be afraid to ask for help, and don't be too uptight to offer it. For the most part, the community that I've had the fortune of bumping into has been awesome, very patient and welcoming. I hope this welcoming behavior catches on.

There's nothing wrong with trial and error; no one's going to complete everything their first time. But instead of directing people to video guides, why not take 30 seconds yourself and explain to people what they need to do?
