Lets talk about the FFXIV player base..

That's because if you write something hostile you will get banned/suspended. So people have to express their displeasure more indirectly. Like if someone is dying to every mechanic, you can't just outright say "you suck" because u get reported so people will say something like "you're an amazing player." Or if you see someone doing 3k dps in level 80 gear, you can't say anything or you will get punished, so people will say "great job with dps!"

It's one thing to not want to say something bad, but your examples just seem so unproductive to the point I wonder if they're real examples or just your exaggeration. If people are being told they're great when they're not, then I guess this community deserves what it gets in terms of the quality of players.

So being forced to not give any actual feedback by ridiculous ToS but occasionally getting frustrated by that and being sarcastic means that the whole game deserves to suffer.

To borrow the idea of telling that level 80 dps doing 3k how good they are - wow, you have amazing logic.

My logic is indeed amazing since being frustrated is no excuse to lie.

And in case you're not aware, sarcasm can be hard to tell over text.
