    In all my years of online experience, I've never noticed a worrying trend of hermetic people that absolutely refuse to listen to others because they don't want to improve (I believe that sums up your cause). However, I've been noticing an increasing amount of people normalizing insults, flame and harassment. Against the latter, companies have gone a long way to create multiple tools in a poor attempt to alleviate it, and I say poor because the problem not only persists but seems to be getting worse over the years.
    Technically, we are all accusing here, you are accusing people of being too sensitive and not taking friendly advice properly, while I'm accusing others of perhaps (just perhaps...) not being so tactful when the reaction on the other side is commonly hostile.

    People are different than you. Many approach this game in a very different way than you. Perhaps you are very passionate about FFXIV and like setting your goals high there, which is totally fine and respectable. But what about someone that plays FFXIV along with 3 or 4 other games? Is it not acceptable for someone to play FFXIV maybe 1 hour a day or 4 hours a week? Whether that's a waste of a sub it's up to each individual, but that's still respectable no? That might be the sort of player that asks for advice or struggles. You don't need to shake your head in disbelief over that, people have different ambitions and expectations when it comes to playing this game (or any other game for that matter).
