There are people out there with certain expectations for end game content as far as personality or attitude and people forget that just because you may come from a hardcore guild in your previous mmo (ie; lineage/guildwars/*insert korean grinding fest mmo) that this is final fantasy and the community is going to be generally more casual attitude and/or RP friendly atmosphere. I say this because I originally came from the sort of game where bashing noobs was like a norm and if you spend years playing that sort of game I imagine some people forget how to communicate with normal mmo players lol. I was never an asshole personally but had plenty of guildies who were that way (having been in the most powerful guild on my server) and i'm used to seeing situations where 1 guild can control both the economy and the gear in an entire server. Ofcourse eventually i got a life and i look back to those days like wtf was wrong with us lol. I bet you probably ran into people like that.
