Let me share 3 acts of real kindness from strangers. I love the story, I was doing Praetorium for the first time and wanted to watch the cut scenes. I wanted to watch them as the events unfolded because it was the big finish. I was getting some pressure from others to watch them later. A female extremely competent Paladin who looked incredibly badass, stood up to people admonishing them "you were new once too" then waited for me, to show me the way, Gave some instructions that made things very comfortable for me. ALL CLASS. Another time doing the Navel on Hard with my WHM the BLM weapon dropped and the BLM asked if I needed it, I said I didn't think I was going to do the relic on my and BLM said NP I'll pass for you. I was offering an overpayment for a meld in Limsa Lominsa, a person came up and told they would do it, refused payment, told me to make them a friend and if I had questions about anything to just ask...WOW I have and she is always accommodating. Exodus FWIW

This is really awesome! Glad to see there are others out there like this, because if you read the forums too often (like I do), you start to lose faith...

Like you, I lose quite a bit of faith in the overall community by reading the forums as frequently as I do, but like the OP, on my server I've had nothing but a 99% wonderful experience since my first day logging in almost a year ago. Easily the best MMO community I've ever had the opportunity to play a game with; especially with the good people in Adamantoise

Agreed. Goblin is a pretty small community in respect to some of the other larger servers, but when new content patches drop we are bustling again. I've played since 2.0 early access and I've had many more good experiences on my server than bad. I think I only ever blacklisted one legit (non-RMT) person on my server, and after a few months I ended up in a PF with him and un-BL him to give him another chance, and he actually wasn't too bad of a guy. Must have had a bad day I guess lol.

It seems the random DF is largely the culprit for the bad behavior, but I have really not encountered it very often. And the times I do, I just choose to not engage in the bickering. I would much rather enjoy the time I get to spend with the game, rather than complain about someone picking up 6 mobs instead of 8
