Every time I shout for a PUG to fill a group, I give a set of requirements. Queue that white knight that thinks I overshot the requirements and am being a "toxic element in the community".

For people that go on and on about how people shouldn't force their playstyle on others, they sure do complain a lot. Unlike them, I'm not forcing my playstyle on anyone. If you don't match with me, you don't come. Pretty easy, right?
If you want to personally make a group that outgears wherever it is you want to go then that is your prerogative. It doesn't affect me. Now if you hit the DF and demand quad melded Allagan (or whatever is the highest possible gear) to do AK and if we don't have it we should promptly drop group and delete both our accounts and our lives. Then there will be issues.

DF is just that, a random assortment of possibly level synced people. There is no gear guarantee and people need to take that into consideration before pressing that Join button.
