"Everyone's so open and friendly" is a lie

[Juzjuzz]

everyone that thinks this community is nothing but nice should read that place, just to see how many of those 'nice' players are super toxic

Yup it's either the players showed that are toxic or the redditors being assholes as well.
There's just no way of completly avoiding toxicity, it's possible to find ways tout get a better situation but it will never be good all the time.

Still thinking about what happened to scottzone

Same, he made a lot of good points but it's always the same : if you don't aggree with the general ideas in a community everything you say gets demonized.

What about those who think this community is nice enough?

this might come as a surprise, but I do think it's nice enough in a sense, as I think it's not a bad one but it could really use a little bit less handholding/coddling

If the community is super toxic, you wouldn't need a special place to collect bad experiences. It will just be the norm of what people expect.

lol, lmao even
you know why they had to make that place? because everything in that sub got - and would get - downvoted to oblivion and further by the 'nice' community
ffxiv is filled with YPYT drivel, filled with people enabling 0 dps healers in high lvl content, filled with players that go at your throat if you insist that one should learn their class a bit, ones that attack you for 'ruining players fun' by wall-to-walling or asking the tank/dps to use their combo and not only an uncombo'd finisher etc
of course people will make a subreddit where they can talk about their bad experiences if talking about it on the mainsub would get you shunned/attacked/harassed/downvoted

Because they're part of the community?? They're ffxiv players who are active in ffxiv platforms. Everyone has equal parts in representing the community.

Using you logic, no community is toxic because they can just say "no no, that person break the TOS/toxic, they're not with us". Pretty convenient I'd say.

Yes, it is pretty convenient. That's why the ToS matters for the community. It's what helps to protect the community from bad actors, though not perfectly, still better than not having it.

Well, that's my point. People have disagreements (and that's fine for a community), and that's why the complaints of one subreddit is not as universal as some might think.

Not gonna surprise if someone gets suspend on 1st day early access because they act toxic to others.

Why? Why wouldn't you get suspended today if you being toxic to others?

your point would have merit if people could freely express their experiences and frustrations without being attacked by rabid horde of cultists that's the mainsub
never said the community was super toxic, anyway

So you want places where people just agree with you?

........

It's an early access, the last thing you need is to get suspended and missing out the experience from the first few days.
But there will be an idiot who uses the harsh words and cause troubles to others on the first day and got banned due to their own stupidity.

can't believe I have to explain this .....

There is no different to being toxic right now or on a early access launch day.
If you can't control your own emotions and actions, then you should probably get the consequences for your actions.

no? how do you get that from my posts?
