How would an optional, official parser be toxic?

No we don't. We kick underperformers, not carry them. You can waste time carrying if you want, but if I make a PF I'm going to pick and choose who stays, that's my right as the person who started the group.

You're wasting time doing runs with randoms, waiting for them to fill your pugs on farm parties and more, and them kicking them when they underperform or wipe you. If the content is hard enough, you're much better off not doing that and not hoping the randoms will be fixed by whatever half-ass measure the devs put out, and instead do it with a static and save PF for less demanding things.

Ah, yes. How dare I be a full-time student trying to get a degree

If you have less time to play, scheduling is far more important precisely because you aren't logging on and waiting for pugs or other players and wiping because you have to kick dps. If you can't make a scheduled day consistently because your schedule is that fluid, you probably shouldn't play. Especially if a student, mmos have caused a lot of people to drop out.

I think a lot of the issue here is that there really isn't the social aspect to MMOs that you had in other games, the rules that made it possible to act smoothly. The static/raid fc model would do things like consistently schedule, recruit and train new players, etc. here its just everyone gets together when they want and for what they want and expects to do the hardest content in the game without a hitch. When they can't, they expect the devs to fix it and blame players.
