The community made me leave

[Palourde]

That's clearly what i wanted to say. My native language is french so it may be the reason why you understood my post as being vindicative.

Indeed, i feel some frustration thanks to the community that i call being " bad ".

And i hope you have seen that i said i fully regret to leave this game. It's the first one that gave me so much fun after Wow. I point it out because i want you to understand that i tried hard to stay on this game.

Well, you're welcome to come hang out with us on Atomos if you want. We have a really casual (as in 'laid back') approach to everything, including endgame. It is a JP server, so there may be some culture shock. All languages welcome. ^^

eta: I suggest making alts to check out other servers to see if they work for you. If you still don't like it, feel free to leave, no hard feelings.

The company you keep is the first thing you should look to establish when playing an MMO. I have never had to worry about what the community was like in an MMO because the first thing i do, before worrying about raiding, before worrying about gearing, is finding a group of people who have my common interest and that i can get along with. If your goal is to clear content and get loot. Don't chase those first, chase a solid group of people, they exist and will lead to what you want. And if you are someone who finds themselves constantly bouncing from group to group and have trouble getting along with numerous communities there's a secret i'd like to give. It's you, you're the problem, not the community.

I think part of the problem this first year was alot were rushing to end game / cap battleclasses that other's who were not in that rush are basically left behind. That said, someone could be hitting their 1st 50 and not quite geared up yet as good as they can be. They may be new to a dungeon/raid but it does seem no one wants to explain and usually want to rush through. Which in the end tends to having the new player being berated overtly harshly instead of mentored. No patience most of the time. I agree about if a player seemingly bounces around that perhaps it is them, but at the same time the fact of what does go on and the frequency that it does by other players on a daily basis can not be ignored. That is just my experience and observations when it comes to FFXIV-ARR so far. I rarely experienced problems with players in FFXI all the years I played it than I have had so far in this FF. Basically depends on your server then on up to the community.

There are only 3 communities a player will ever have to deal with in this game.
Your server's community
The forum's community
The small pvp community
2/3 are optional that being forum and pvp as you get to choose to be a part of.
So technically a better title in general would be like the community is terrible here and it makes me want to switch servers. I should have put that on my old thread lol but that's the past so whatever.

I'm not sure why people need to post that they are leaving.

I'm not sorry to see you go and I'm sick of people thinking they are so important that the near 2m other players care, that they can't do something or something doesn't work the way they want it to so they say they are leaving.

If you where really disappointed in the game you would just quit. Come back in a few months to see if it better and if not quit again. But NOOO I NEED EVERYONE TO CARE ABOUT IT, AND KNOWN THE GAME HAS THIS/THESE ISSUES.

The server I'm on has RP LS/FC, The FC I'm in is great not a RP FC, I have 2 LS that are better then any FC and always helping people.

All I can say is

If anyone is ever not having fun in a game it's time for them to move on. Say thanks for playing to them and that's about all there is to say.

Those threads are funny sometimes. I'm playing mmorpgs for years now and this game believe it or not has one of the most friendly communities I have ever seen. Sure there are ****s everywhere and people who don't know how to play or people who think they know how to play and flame you when you try to help them (that kind is the worst lol). Go to League of Legends where in every game you will hear about your mother or your father and all the kind and beautiful words you can imagine and tell me what is a bad commnunity then. I can say about other game's communities too but I don't have the mood to write about all of them. You have to team up with people you know or trust if you want static runs without problems. No the community didn't make you leave. You left because of your own reasons. If you are so good player like you say why you didn't applied to join one of the good FCs of your server? Blaming others is the easy way to go.

There is a lot to the endgame construct worthy of criticism, in my opinion. One aspect is that SE clearly wants us to commit to regular, unchanging static smallish groups to conquer and farm raids due to the kind of mechanics they use. In saying PUGs are full of less accomplished (i.e. 'bad') players and have proven to be unsatisfactory, well, all I can say is that is how SE intended raiding in this game to be, for better or worse.
