Most of the toxicity and poor behaviour comes from high-end raiders, though there's a lot to enjoy with FFXIV outside of that; in fact, the % of players especially on NA who actually raid are a small minority, and there's a lot of fun to be had at 80 without that. Even if you want to get into raiding, you can always avoid PF and find a more relaxed group of people to participate with. In general PUGs have less accountability, which makes it easier for people to ditch or be rude.
No it doesnt.
