As a main healer I stick to the tank, if the tank does very small boring pulls, nobody is in any danger of dying, I just politely ask if they are up for doing bigger pulls. In most cases it works, in some it doesn't, so I just follow while watching Anime.
Welcome to the new FFXIV, where the only thing reminding you that people should be nice to one another is the ToS.
I talked to a supposed scholar main who says that they played this game for seven whole years.

This is what they said to me:
"The healer supposed to do damage."

I respond: and you don't find anything wrong with that sentence at all?

Again the context behind this conversation was, as a scholar main I'm in situations where the party is in need of healing. And I don't mean that they got a slight scratch and I need to top them off. I mean the tank is at less than half and I need to start healing. Sometimes I feel like I got to heal like two people just to keep them alive. I don't mind that. I'll throw my dots when I can but I'm not going to sit there and use up cast time for my damage spells.

This guy is carrying on like I don't know what I'm doing and it's suggesting that I learned his rotation. I said dude, I understand the rotation. It's on my bar. Got to level 80 no problem. He responds back to me genuinely clueless. And I told him I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say you're not clueless you're just not listening. He carried on to defend the fact that he was genuinely clueless. I facepalmed... There are some dumb people that play this game... Even after 7 years. He actually blamed the Creator for why he thinks DPS is necessary for a healer class... I still don't buy it.
