For those who give up on Duties too quickly...

Except, when I've been in situations where someone in our group says something along these lines and leaves, 9 out of 10 times we've beaten the content.

lol I see this happen all the time, I think the reason for it is the person is so negative that they don't give it 100% from the start.

That's all well and good but when you have newbies who despite being told what to do and translated if language barrier and they still refuse to listen that annoys me alot, let's also remember most mechanics are just simple common sense it shouldn't need explaining if you lack common sense then something is serously wrong.

Just FYI, I'm one of those players who don't read guides or watch videos on how to do stuff because... What's the fun in just copying someone else or not making your own mistakes, or keeping the mystery in the story...

I will gladly admit that I have been the cause of a couple of pt wipes. But honestly if you want to farm something then create a party, if your in df then you will find people like me.

It's not hard to que for a trial and never get an ex or nidhogg...

I try to be understanding and accommodating, but after a certain point, I value my time too much to keep at it. Either a bad player is getting a vote, a bad group is getting a vote, or I'll just plain leave. There's no point in wasting my time when it's clear that a collective group just isn't going to clear the content. Back when Bismarck EX was (kind of) relevant, for example, there was a group where the tanks could not grab the two serpent mobs correctly and pull them to where they needed to be. It happened four times in a row. There's just no point in sticking with that, continuing to wipe when no improvements are being made as they wipe the group over and over.

This happens to me so often that I would go so far as to say that their negative attitude may even be the very reason for failure. The people who are inexperienced are learning and getting better, but the people who start thinking "this is terrible" are probably not giving a great performance. As soon as they leave the group often succeeds.

Edit: Hah, I see #21 above said the same thing. That's what I get for replying to things I left at home after getting back from work.
