Block first timers from Party Finder!

People need to learn to create their own parties instead of ruining the enjoyment of other people selfishly. I only cleared BisEX after a few weeks and during the times I played there was rarely ever a party, what did I do? Create one, you'd be surprised at how quick they fill up and the constant comments like "I was waiting for ages for someone to create a party". Leading a party isn't some amazing feat, anyone can do it. Step up and create your own if there isn't one.

Funny how you guys keep accusing other people of being selfish, yet the entire motive behind this idea is selfish. I create my own PF all the time, very few actually fill up. If they do, they fall apart when someone rage quits after a wipe or two.

Perhaps it is selfish, but I'm also taking into consideration the 6 other people in my party (excluding the one newbie who joins) because as you may know, most difficult content is 8 man. I'll admit, this suggestion is rather selfish, but joining and wasting 7 other people's time is far, far more selfish. It's the lesser of the two evils so to speak. I don't even know why I bother arguing about this though, I know SE is never going to implement this because they want everyone to be babied. Oh, Steps of Faith requires you to click some buttons and man two cannons? Better nerf it!

Has it always been like this, or just recently? The game has been rather dead, but that stands to be SE's fault. You have two options here, move to a more populated server (I have no idea if Siren is populated), or if you can't due to friends and FC members, ask them to help you. What are friends for, right? I know I'd more than gladly help a friend who needs to get through Bismarck, even though I dislike that instance more than I do Neverreap (why are tornadoes even a thing?).

If they do, they fall apart when someone rage quits after a wipe or two.

On a somewhat related note, this is yet another reason I hate it when a newbie joins a farm party. They get their clear, and then leave. This has happened every time without exception. Are they unable to comprehend what "farm party" means? You know, I wouldn't mind carrying the occasional newbie if it weren't for this. The worst part is, when one person leaves so does the rest. I don't understand why the FFXIV community does this, no other MMO I've played has that "One player has left, we're all doomed" mentality.

So I'm selfish because I actually want to do my own thing every now and again without it being messed up? Even though I spend around 70% of my time helping other people? I dont even need to defend myself with a comment as ridiculous as that.

Oh, and you know what else is funny? It wasn't relevant, but I got Kirin a long time ago. The only reason I farm now is to get crafting drops such as the whisker or vortex feather, 1) to get my boyfriend a Moogle weapon, and 2) to sell to raise money to get my FC a house. But obviously I'm a very selfish person and it's all for my own benefit.

I think you need to Google the definition of 'selfish'. Some people actually enjoy helping others you know. You should try it sometime. It's actually rather sad you have that attitude but it seems you're just trying to find any way to argue with the suggestion. Replying to you is getting kind of boring now as your points are all completely self-opinionated, so have a nice day.

^this although it is painting a picture of why they have trouble filling their PF parties. People do build reputations. I know I'll always look at the name of the person forming the party before joining.

It's amazing though that the mods have deleted posts in this thread, but not yet adjusted the title.
