I'm not actually expecting players to explain the fight to me. As far as effort is concerned, I'd like to think that I'm perceptive enough to put 2 and 2 together when it comes to learning raid mechanics. To this end, I've made good use of my PS4's recording feature x)

That's pretty much how I learned T5 back when there were still a few learning parties left for it. Is this not effort?
The problem with this line of thinking is that for these kinds of fights, if you don't know what you're doing, you will get the group wiped. It can be considered selfish and disrespectful to many people if you're wasting the time of 7 other players because you refused to watch a guide of the fight (just to learn the mechanics you need to watch out for) that is most likely shorter than your queue time to get in as a DPS.
