In fact, it hardly ever seems to happen in-game, just here :/ How do you know that they aren't going to go away and try to improve on their skills and do better? Why can't some people get that others take longer to learn things and just need more practice? Is it the age or something? Older people just seem to be more patient and tolerant overall? I know that's not true though Just feels like a load of kids screaming "hurry up, hurry up, do it right or you CAN'T PLAY cos you SUCK!" whilst throwing their toys at you.
But that's sort of the thing. They CAN learn to do it in a relatively short amount of time. They just don't want to. Yes, don't want to. I always see Mei bring this argument. And it sickens me. It plays people down like they can't get better or that they are very slow learners and such, and that is just degrading to people in general. People CAN easily do better than they are. They choose not to because they feel they shouldn't have to put forth that much effort because it's a game. Because they feel doing so makes it a job.

They are welcome to feel like that. However, not all parts of this game are for them at that point. And they need to deal with that. Coil is optional, they don't have to do it if they aren't willing to put forth the required effort.
