Communities for MMOs are pretty crap in general. FFXI was just as bad.. if you started as a newbie after people had got their feet sunk in then you weren't allowed to be new anymore without getting insults.. ditto goes for not playing the correct classes, or knowing the proper leveling spots.

The key to -any- MMO (including this one) is finding a group of people to play with that are nice, and share your ideals. The general public, and folks you run into while running dungeons, tend to be elitist jerks after an MMO has been out for a while.
