This is often how I see new players treated in FFXIV:

Read tdlr at end, my screenshot got messed up lol...It's frustrating since I have gone through similar experiences. I've only played almost 2 months now and I am really not a fan of how new people are treated in group content. Letting a person die because of something as this petty (the person had full health before boss made him unmovable and there was no predicting whether he/she would be the next target or not so essentially what people tell are telling him/her to do after the fact is to spam a heal on him/herself, and the other healer just let him/her (sorry, I really couldn't tell the gender...) die to "teach him a lesson" I'm guessing. *Eyeroll*) is really ridiculous in my opinion. All the person asked to do was be able to watch a cutscene and still be allowed to participate in the fight... The cut-scene was literally like 20-30 seconds.

The icing on the cake is that the other healer just let that person stay dead, even when the boss fight was over.

I'm on Faerie and I'm actually getting to a point where I'm growing tired of having not many friends and seeing this sort of toxic behavior take place. Trying to add people from forums has proven impossible too as when I go online to try to add people they aren't on, so that's been a huge bust... Guess I either have to continue dealing with this commonality or quit (I guess I have bad luck with groups too and seem to somehow attract groups like this for some reason or another).

P.S. Forgive my crappy paint editing skills... I am not a fan of Microsoft Paint lol

Edit: Pic is being wonky, so tdlr, players basically being asswads to new player who wanted to watch a 20-30 second cut-scene in a trial and also be able to do the fight without being locked out, player had to skip cut-scene because people are too impatient, and then when he goes, "really" he/she get's all kinds of crap, and then he/she gave crap back. Everyone was wrong, but I still think older players could not be so... Immature.
