A plea to SE : make it difficult !

[Mihana]

You know, for me personally... It's challenging enough as it is. Try finding a party that will accept you only if you have x-skill and are y-job. Or gathering a party together to do something only after 2-3 wipes due to the incompetence of someone who decides not to listen to orders, deciding to disband. This has been my experience since even Ifrit came out. Have a certain skill? Okay fine, but only "this job or GTFO" doesn't fly. Neither does spending all your time gathering up a party to attempt something only to have 2 wipes later someone going "I'm done for tonight, see you." and then everyone deciding to follow suite.

I originally may have complained about something being too hard, but it's very difficult to even get better at it when you're not given a chance. I've seen how endgame linkshells run, and I don't want to dedicate every waking moment of my time doing nothing but endgame crap. They're fun yes, something to strive for yes. But frequently make me drop what I'm doing to be here at x time on y date or GTFO the LS? No thanks.

TLDR: Make the game even harder? No thanks, how about giving us a better community that doesn't flake out, ditch, or have elitist attitudes first. Thanks.
