Openly admitting to ignoring the players

Thanks for this perspective. I know a woman in her 70's who plays and I know she experiences much of what you describe (she only plays DPS roles as a result), though I dare anybody to talk s**t to her because she'll give back double the sass. And I think what you say is important to note, because greater accessibility doesn't just mean "people who are new" or "people who aren't very good".

I'm all for being understanding that not everybody will keep up if I get a more complicated rotation back, because let's face it, good DPS is not required for the vast majority of the content. You can be in a party with a Ninja who doesn't know their rotation, so you can just as easily be in a party with a healer who doesn't properly manage their DPS abilities. I'm not going to bemoan if somebody sticks to their Broil spam.

I think at the end of the day, we're all wanting to have fun with the jobs and roles we like and it's not going to be the same for everyone, so it's about finding that happy medium.
