Logical Fallacy: Argumentum ad populum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum

I would have to agree with Miscreant though. DPS do have less responsibility than the other roles since all they need to do is optimize damage and know mechanics. Now, I'm not saying either is easy (although it can be depending on perspective) but Tanks and Healers do have more responsbility than DPS do.

Tanks and healers have their abilities divided into two categories for group and solo play, respectively. This limits the complexity of both given those abilities need to share the same UI space. Damage dealers are only responsible for doing damage, so their entire UI bar is dedicated to that particular task, minus minor utility abilities. The combat system in FFXIV does not make use of resistances, so every ability that contributes to damage gets thrown into a massive rotation. Add a new ability and people expect you to use it to maximum effect. While they have only one thing to do, it is twice as involving in comparison to what the tanks and healers have to do in a group, which is purposely cut down to make room for solo oriented abilities.

The only real exception to this rule is the scholar, and that's because they have a pet to manage on top of having the same number of active abilities as the white mage. Also, I doubt you are here to exercise any intellectual muster for the well-being of others here, considering you are defending someone who chose to mock and belittle someone else who made no personal attack against them. Especially since constructive debate that uses such terminology is based on a healthy dose of self respect for both sides, which you have failed to garner by aligning yourself with a douchebag.
