[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[AlphaFox]

i worry for this community sometimes

Being asked to have an appropriate level weapon is now "elitism" and everything's fine because "you cleared it anyway"

I think the main issue is people want to take things to far in extremes. There is no such thing as a middle ground. Its not elitism, its common sense you wear your best armor and the issue seems to be we are happy to just accept bottom of the barrel instead of tossing it out. Not saying he needs to be in full 270 topping the DPS charts, but its obvious they are fine being ranked last and everyone else just shrugs and accepts it. Kind of the same anywhere, either it be healers, tanks, or dps. If we allow them to keep doing stuff we know is wrong or not helping, they will keep doing it.
