    People yelling at other players and "instructing" them through aggression is not a very good learning method. It just makes people upset and deters new players from wanting to play. I wouldnt endorse this kind of "learning" to anyone. Unfortunately, Trial-by-fire as I like to call it, has been my experience with most older players trying to "teach" new players.

    Some people are polite in trying to teach and dont immediately lash out when a player isnt playing right, but its unfortunately not commonplace. At least not in the dungeons I have been in that warranted it. The other side of this is that the new player lashes out at unwanted advice. If the game were to instruct players through tutorials we wouldnt have all this animosity and negativity in dungeons, and everyone would be the better for it, because we'd all have a good grasp on how to play. From there it would be up to the player to tweak and refine their basic job rotation.
