I'm sorry, but when you join a farm run you do so with the expectation of smooth farming. It can take up to an hour to fill up a party sometimes and the last thing you want to do once you get that T11 started is explain to someone why 275 DPS in 120+ ilv is NOT acceptable.

The problem is people FOIST themselves on others and expect them to carry them through content. And they don't want parsers because parsers reveal what is going on.

I mean, if you're doing 400 DPS on any of the final coils, you're not doing great DPS, but I doubt people are going to berate you for it. When people get upset is at some guy in full augmented ironworks who's spent more time farming poetics for months rather than learning to play the class, because when a 116 monk is putting out 560+ DPS while the nearby dragoon or ninja with a zeta weapon in almost full 130 gear is putting out 380 DPS, that's a great source of annoyance.

Anyone can put in an effort and prepare and learn. Many just don't want to. And then they come unprepared and waste everybody's time wiping the party due to prolonged fights.

And then those players who you carried, rather heavily, end up winning items that are basically wasted on them because it's not like they're gonna put them to good use.
