And it could be argued that the people who demand perfection from other players don't want to play with other people as well. People make mistakes. If they can't accept that they are better off playing with AI companions as well.
I’m sure it’s different for everyone but I’ve played actively since 1.0 and I can count on one hand the amount of times I’ve encountered behavior like that though the RP/Mod community is where the real toxicity lies if anything. I’m sure everyone has different experiences for sure but to think group content should be avoided in an mmo because someone somewhere might say you have low dps with such strict ToS to where most people don’t even talk in pugs anymore is silly
