    For people here it's wasting time if someone looks at a dungeon drop or a boss cut scene. Give me a break. Nobody counts seconds like that and gets angry about it. That's downright psychotic. Some people here really need a chill pill. lol

    The made-up contempt for everything is just unreal and if it gets to that point you should have gotten a break ages ago.

    Making things up doesn't count as an answer nor an argument, but it's fun to watch you try at least.

    It's important to understand that the moral framework of this type of person is essentially "I am a good person; ergo, anything I do is morally justified and anyone who disagrees with me is a bad person". They rely almost completely on constructing strawmen and insulting the nature of their opposition because engaging with the actual content of the arguments presented would call their established beliefs about their own morality into question.

    It's a simple part of human nature to become frustrated when certain types of repetitive activities take more time than expected, particularly when the wait feels unjustified. If a karen is holding up the checkout line at a shop because they're screaming at the cashier and trying to redeem expired coupons, most of the people waiting will be justifiably frustrated. If someone is stuck in traffic on their commute home because someone else has decided to drive 20 mph on a one-lane highway, they'll probably get frustrated. If a tank who has reached the latter half of the game refuses to pull more than a single pack at a time out of personal preference, most players will be reasonably frustrated, particularly if the person continues when asked by the party to pull more, or god forbid has a meltdown as these types often do.

    People that grandstand on these types issues generally aren't ascendant moral beings. Typically their need to constantly signal their morality and righteousness, while attempting to undermine people with completely reasonable grievances or arguments is actually a strong indicator that they're not a great person. If you spend time on FFXIV twitter, you see a ton of this kind of behavior

    weren't you the one who made up a 'funny' description of people valuing their time early so you could moral grandstand and show what a nice and helpful person you are by making fun of them?
    I mean, it's fine if you're ok with enabling absolutely horrible players that don't know their class after having played the game for hundreds of hours, but it's pretty bad to expect people to be willing to do the same, wouldn't you think?
    but your unfunny attempt at a joke (again) aside, you know what people consider wasting time?
    20 minute dungeons taking 30, 40 or even more minutes because everyone but you apparently is unable to press the glowing combo or damage buttons
    30-40 minute CT raids (and that's already on the slower side) taking over an hour because of the same issue and people ignoring every single mechs because they're that lazy and no, usually not new, even if you explain it in detail
    expert dungeons taking longer than 20 minutes
    but I'm sure all of those are fine with you and, I'll be honest, usually the people defending those very players that ask for a carry are those kind of players themselves
