Lets be real here. Just because other players play the game. Does not mean you got to be mindful, or care.


We did not even have that mindset when we played Ultima Online. So not sure why people feel that now.



I agree, but I also am understanding that I pick to do content that openly has no standard for players to do it.

That means that if a Black mage wants to RP and only do ice. They have every right to do that in that group. And if the group is not happy with them, and he gets kicked. They have the right to do that as well, and he will find another one (or she.)


My stance on it is. The group got made with no set standard on how players should play. So not my place to ask or even help them. Unless they want it.
When you join a group, the standard is being a team player.

Sometimes being a team player means compromising.

So players entering the DF who are at the extremes should expect to compromise on their preferred play style.

So the players who prefer perfect runs have to tolerate mistakes.

Those who don't play at their personal best knowingly, have to step it up a notch.

No one's expecting the Ice Mage to suddenly go perfect rotation. Just to do a better job at DPS.
