Tonight I was in a learning party for Thordan Extreme, my first time attempting it (I'm somewhat of a new player) and we had a blast- even though we lost in the end.

I left the raid after the hour of trying and wiping feeling good about my own and my teams progress, we'd brought him well into the final phase a few times after all, and most of us were new to the fight.

No one complained or was rude, everyone was cool and helpful and did their best.

I want to thank the FFXIV community for being at large, the most awesome MMO community I have been a part of to date.

Having had the bad experience of the WoW raid finder, I really appreciate that in THIS game I can pug and rarely ever run into toxic players.
