What is wrong with this community?

Wait until you use Duty Finder to get into some HM Ifrit runs. I'll admit I myself am an asshole SOMETIMES in those runs, but it's not my fault that the DPS are incapable of taking down the nails in time without a BLM or SMN to Meteor them. I ran into a group with 3 Monks and they still didn't even come close to taking down the nails in time (LBing the first and last ones). For healers that go OOM in a short amount of time, tanks that can't reasonably hold threat, or DPS who can't kill worth crap: if you are going to attempt endgame, please do not fate grind to 50 and expect people to carry you because you have no idea how to play your job, but this practically goes for all MMO gamers in general.

P.S. HM Garuda duty finder groups are absolutely the worst. It's always in HM Ifrit or HM Garuda where people have no clue what's new in the fight, have not bothered to look up any guides or videos, and/or don't even state as much before the initial pull and wonder why we wipe.

Anyone that says "Go back to WoW" is a wow player and you can bet a terrible one as well.

This game is far to hard and grindy for the type of people that are nasty and hateful. Nasty and hateful almost always goes along with being bad as well. Over time more people are going to do things server/fc only and that is going to mean all those nasty people that also probably suck will be forced to deal with each other... and quit.

I did the goblin dungeon... breyflox or whatever... my first time I ran out of time because the people in my group where terrible but I never yelled at anyone for it. The second time there I get this Dragoon that keeps pulling and I knew he would be a problem. Sure enough when we get to the chest area the blm who had never been there before walked into an area and spawned mobs ahead of us. Super dragoon then used the next five minutes to rage at the blm before telling him to go back to wow and then dropping group. One chest in a level 30ish instance was enough for that guy to fricken lose it and it was kind of fun to watch just because the Blm didn't even know he was being yelled at.

If you run into good players in duty finder and they are on your server friend them. Bad ones blacklist. It is up to us to keep this community clean and it is still possible even with the WoW derp spreading around. Lotro has a very nice community and it came out after WoW so games can still be good.

I have also lost some of my enthusiasm for endgame seeing how some of the people treat each other.
Right now the best thing to do is be nice to the random people you meet in DF. you'd be amazed at the world of difference it makes in people to just see nice people are around.

there is zero recourse to blist/ban these kind of people so people just feel they can troll as much as they want when they want and nothing will happen to them. Some like the OP's tank blame others for their mistakes. this has been a huge issue from day one. EVERYONE you cant think of play this game, trolls, bigots, 10 yr olds who think they are better then you we get them all. all you can do if suck it up, or leave and they know THAT is all we can do at this point.

Until SE implements a ban/kick/blist feature for duty finder we are all stuck with these "people"

Didn't run into many bad eggs until recently. Today's example: Queued up for Ifrit Hardmode with 2 buddies from my FC. one of them is a healer and has been running Ifrit for days straight trying to get his weapon to drop with no luck. Well today it dropped. And he still didn't get it. Why? because there was another white mage in the group and he got it instead. Ok that's fine, frustrating but such are mmos.

BUT

The guy's buddies were total pricks. They barely contributed to the fight and got killed frequently (my friend practically was pulling double duty as the healer). And trashed my buddy going "hope you don't get the roll" and "YEAH <insert F-BOMB here> YOU" afterwards.

I mean really? Was completely uncalled for and they were the ones doing so poorly in the raid. And they got rewarded for nothing and gloated about it.
Some people are just cancerous.

I ran CM all morning no problems no wipes no deaths. All were speed runs. Then I got with this group where the SCH was telling everyone how to do CM (nobody was new) and telling me to play SMN a totaly differnt way than I do in CM, things that just take more time and people wiped over and over and 2nd tank left after being blamed for everthing and then after being told I was a shitty dps because I didnt have dots on all the random mobs "they" had spread out in all four cornner of the map I was nice and raised the SCH and left and went on doing speed runs with others.

I really hope people like this leave. You really dont even have to talk during CM, just do it once and go with it.

And also today I saw a shout from someone saying they got kick out of CM for not having dl armor.....really? You can do this naked lol

Another WK run with DF, another couple of douche sticks talking crap that i do zero dmg all the while the tank can hold zero hate off the healer. The bard dies on the pudding boss and the tank is mad at me cuz we wiped. Then later the bard starts talking crap to me about how much I suck? These kinda people have nothing better to do then to bring you down to their lvl.

While doing Garuda, we wiped when the off tank who was from another server kept tanking Chu and Sup on top of the healers and ranged dps. Explained to her that she has to tank them away from us and she put the blame on us. Didn't really trash talk, but said a lot of stuff that put her in the wrong.

Did Garuda once after that wipe with the strategy we told her and we won, go figure lol. She apologized after. Kill them with kindness. Sometimes that's all you can do, or just ignore them. OR EVEN BETTER. If you are the healer, don't heal them xD <<<< jk jk but I have told people to stop or I wouldn't heal them haha. Oh the perks of being the resident WHM
