The number of bad players are rising!

[AngelusOfEorzea]

Why is it that good players are always expected to teach bad players?

The solution to bad players or bad strategy is provide assistance or guidance. This is a game with team objectives and goals. If you do not help to guide the team or stop the problems that are obvious then you have failed the team as well.

So we must forever be relegated to teach and in many cases hand holding.. over and over and over? This is why most of these people DON'T DF, are in a static, or have strict PF rules. It gets tiresome after a while.

I admit it that it can be taxing. This is a game with team objectives. We have to communicate to inexperienced people to make things happen. A static is probably better to avoid these problems. However, I think good players should be leaders.

And you don't see the "problem" here? Not a problem to someone like me, I just play with people I know are good. But you get the people on the other side complaining the good players set strict rules, won't teach, etc. It has to be a two way street, these people NEED to put in SOME work on their part if they want anyone else to constantly be helping. Many people have the "it's just a game" mentality and refuse to do so. As you said it's a team effort, that means ALL people have to be willing to go a little outside of their normal zone.

I don't mind failing. I just re-queue or play with players I know that can play their role.
