    Elitist (noun version): a person who believes that a system or society should be ruled or dominated by an elite.

    Elitist (adjective version): favoring, advocating, or restricted to an elite.

    First of your definition doesn't even define elite. LOL.

    In any case, these elitist think that are so special that can treat everyone else with contempt and that they do NOT be to patient with anyone. And they think the duty finder is theirs to use and abuse and everyone else is just scrubs slowing them down. That is why they force others to speed run, skip cut scenes, rage quit, abuse vote kick, and then leave after the 2nd boss and other jerk behavior.

    And then they do this:

    The elitist themselves are the bad players, because they treat other players badly.

    The typical behavior is an overgeared speed run who speed runs without communications or negotiations with rest of the Duty Finder party.

    This what elitists are:

    "synonyms: aristocratic, snobbish, snobby, superior, supercilious;
    arrogant, haughty, disdainful, condescending;
    pretentious, affected;
    informalsnooty, uppity, high and mighty, fancy-pants, la-di-da, stuck-up, hoity-toity, snotty
    "an elitist attitude"

    That is what I mean. Google has multiple definitions for it, and it is clear you don't like that.

    Or better yet try this one... because it is certainly more relevant, but with language far less suitable for the forums:

    Those are magical little words called synonyms.

    they are similar words with slightly different meanings.

    however they do not define it.

    Says you. Luckily you don't get to define it either. Elitists = 1% = Jerks. And in the context of this thread and this game, the elitists are bad players.

    BTW here is some thing to boggle your mind. Elite players are NOT necessarily elitist. Because many of them do have the patience to teach and help and accomodate. It is when they have the ability but refuse too, and have the audacity to come here and complain about the unwashed masses and scrubs, that they become elitists.

    And to really screw with your limited thinking, there are many so called elitist who are not elite at all, they are just copycats of youtube videos, and they think they are all that.
