Just because you can do the barest of minimums and still clear content does not mean it's in good online etiquette to do so. I would be very upset with anyone in my party who's too lazy to play the game. Note that I'm also referring to intentionally bad play and not lack of skill or ability. Those of us who fight lazy healers on the forums have spoken till we're blue in the face about how what matters is genuine effort and not optimal skill, but it tends to fall on deaf ears. In fact I covered this earlier in this thread:
    But you do realize there are like 80 year old grannies who play this game, or people who have physical disabilities. Those players should still be allowed to play the game and progress through the Dungeons and such, and I wouldn't call those players lazy. If there's a player who is actually capable of doing a DPS rotation while they heal but just are not because they are to lazy, yeah, that's crappy. I don't know whos on the other side of the screen, and having met more people who are in those situations and have been harassed to the point they cry and don't want to play anymore, I feel theres just no need for it in content that is forced upon you to progress the story. There's people who die in the stupid solo instances for MSQ in this game, and it must be enough players for them to add difficulty modifiers for those instances after you die. Its easy to say get good, but sometimes theres reasons for someone being a "bad player". I don't mind playing casual type content with players who only have the ability to focus one on thing at a time, that few minutes of time that would be saved isn't that important to me in over all day/night. Granted, the old me would have probably felt the same way, "Its not hard, dont be lazy, read a guide, etc", but I've met players like this and it has changed my perspective when it comes to maybe theres a reason said player is "bad" or not performing as well as they could be.
