    Use party finder to find 7 other people that want to learn the fight the same way you do. Entering a battle with 7 other people who don't have that mind set means you're the one being uncooperative with the whole. Making 7 other people who are all already aware of the strategy sit there and fail over and over with you because you refuse to try and understand the strategy is rude on your part. They did their homework. They want to make progress and not watch you make mistakes that could easily have been avoided. Consider for a second that most of them probably already tried the fight a few times and you are clearly just now doing it for the first time. You're literally wasting their time by forcing them to watch you wipe.

    Party finder makes it very easy to do what you want as you want it. Do not join other groups and expect them to play your way.

    What about those of us who occasionally get invited by an FC (and the Party Leaders) to a Turn 5 or similar party that they have never been on. Said Party is being advertised as a "Learning Party" in Party Finder. This invitation had come at the last minute as the party was filling it's last two slots, and so we don't have time to look up a Youtube Video on how to do the fight before the fight is run. And promptly after arriving in the Party someone (who isn't the leader of the party, but who is the Tank) asks if we have ever done the fight before or looked it up on youtube. We honestly answer "No, but we are a healer so how hard can it be to keep people alive?" and this person promptly says "I call a wipe."

    And then when the party wipes through no fault of the Healer in question, rather it is because the Tank can't keep aggro successfully, and people didn't properly explain the fight the first time, the Tank throws a hissy fit and promptly leaves the party.

    Again, remember, this was supposed to be a learning party. How is this kind of attitude fair to the people trying to learn the fight the way that it was intended that people learn the fight, by trial and error?
