Gonna be frank here, this sounds a LOT like "blaming the victim". I rarely encountered the XIV elitists when I was working my way through first Coil, but when a friend of mine joined on my recommendation he faced abuse and even kicks because of his lower-level gear (all of which was a) job-appropriate and b) gave him an average ilvl of above the dungeon's requirements). I would not be justified in saying that he was "not social" or "a jerk" or "just not good at XIV", I was simply lucky enough not to have to deal with such people.
