Not sure why this is becoming more common but it can't be helped. Only way to avoid this is to run DF roulettes in Full Party out of FC/LS/Friendslist.
This has been my mentality as of late. I don't even want to say Hello anymore, just so I don't get attention on me.

In one run, I used Kassatsu + Doton on two mobs in Lost City Amdapor Hard, and the DRG laughed at me, telling me to stop. In another run as BRD, true, my damage was below THEIR expectations, but I was never far behind the BLM. I kept up DoTs, Foes, and even kept the WAR from being Pacified. When I ended up with about 8 back-to-back Resets, I spammed Rain of Death. Apparently, they found that to be a bad idea (not sure why).

So, yeah, now... I don't say hello, I don't even offer advice to a first-timer. I remain quiet, send my Comm, Loot the gear, exit.
