    More in-game features to report harassment.

    So, we all know that FFXIV has one of the best (if not the best) MMO communities but sometimes we encounter with some annoying people or group of people who just wants to pick a fight with you.

    I play mainly as a tank, my parses are blue and some purple (I only raid in pugs and Im a PS4 Pro user, so I can't control what parses I put there). So I have some clears on O12S (sometimes is really difficult to farm due to people not doing hw2 properly) so this time I went into a pug as a DPS samurai for the first time, saw a quick PowerPoint on how to do hw2 as a dps and ready to go. I was a bit undergeared but since the PF dind't put any minimum ilv I though it should be ok.

    I died due to my stupidity on door boss (among others) but we got it to the final omega and I made a mistake on hw1 so I got instantly harassed with people saying "do you even know what you doing?" "Carried, maybe?" and my favorite "I`m a PLD and I done more damage than him.". That made me to leave the party, and since PCs have faster loads times than PS4 Pro ofc I got kicked before leave the party, lol.

    I know that going directly to O12S as a DPS firs time was not my most brilliant idea but this overraction is kinda childish. Ofc is just my opinion, I want to hear yours.

    So my sugestion is a ingame system that you can save the textlogs and deliver directly to a GM or something without need to go to a support center.

    Sorry for my blog:
    TLDR: Stupid idea of trying to dps savage first time in pugs ends in group harassment.

    Lol that's cute.

    So yeah I'd say lesson learned. Not saying the people were in the right. But surely you knew going into a content on a job you've not done it as in a group of ppl expecting everyone to know what they're doing was a bad idea right? Why would you even put yourself in that situation? You never said if it was a learning or a farm pug. If it was a farm pug then you kinda set yourself up buddy.

    It was a clear-for-one or a farm cant remember but definetly not a learning party.

    I mean I know what I've done wrong that is clear to me, but get shit talked after one failed pull is kinda...idk.

    As a tank I saw a lot of people in farm parties getting hw2 or paths mechanics wrong and I did not feel the necessity to bash on those people. But I understood your point, like you said, lesson learned.
