with this mindset the future looks dim

No matter which side of the argument you're on, the cussing at someone was unnecessary. ^^;

i can agree with other ppl caring about wipes but he has a really gd point ppl go too batshit crazy about wipes, accidents happen the occasional oops will occur with the best of us. so he is not technically being selfish, u see selfishness and consideration is like a double edged sword it cuts both ways

There's a difference between an accidental wipe here and there and one person causing a party to wipe dozens of times because they didn't want to do the research.

[Miitan]

Goes both ways yo. Tell the other 7 people to stop being selfish. And stop being so serious. It's a video game. Let me repeat it again, A VIDEO GAME. Just gets better and better. lol

2/10 - Too obvious

Yup, obviously I hit a nerve. lol

Man, things got real shit between when I stopped playing XI and WoW (vanilla) to now. No one told people to "go look at a Youtube" video for fights. They'd explain the fight to newbies. Now people act like helping people is some difficult chore. I guess when you can play the game without talking to people from 1-50, actually communicating to someone (outside of a <Hello!> autotranslate) is too difficult for some. I blame the DF.

People clearly forget that there was the FFXI wiki back then with printed strategies for how to do fights with different party setups. Yes, we didn't have youtube, but we did have walkthroughs that you were expected to read ahead of time. Youtube didn't suddenly change things. Prior research was still expected.

Yup, your time is so precious you waste it on pixels. lol

My time is my time to waste as I see fit. Not yours. Not anyone. You are not the one who puts a value on my time. I am.

You're responses to these points paint a very good picture of your attitude. You don't care about anyone but yourself to the point you insult people blatantly when they value their time more than you. You don't care at all for them. Only for you and your yourself.

Honestly I think that if the world were a more slower pace people would probably lean at being more tolerant, that and if we also had to depend on one another more outside of coil. Explaining things probably wouldn't feel so mundane. This game makes people feel that things need to be done with absolute perfection, anything else is fodder for the birds. But I really do consider the pacing playing a huge part here. Jerks are everywhere but during my short time in FFXI never did I feel so rushed.

I'm not quite sure how best to describe it, forgive me. But something is definitely off about Eorzea's environment.

I'd agree with this assessment. The pace of battle definitely leads to this type of environment. Especially when the battles have so many mechanics that cause instant wipes when you miss them.

LOL, way to judge there. Too funny.

It's your responses I'm basing that off of. If that's not the picture you want to paint then I suggest you look at the words you use to talk to people and the meanings they convey. You very clearly come across as only caring for yourself. If this is not correct then please start acting in a way that proves it otherwise. You act just like any other troll who turns to insults and disparagement the moment holes get poked through their story.
