Elitism and toxicity definitely exist in WoW. I've experienced it plenty and have been a part of it in the past when I was younger. I recently have been accused of it multiple times for kicking players out of pug groups. I am a firm believer that your skill level should match the content you are doing unless you agree on getting carried. One group there was a rogue who pulled 3k dps on the first 2 bosses of the raid and capped at 5k on aoe trash. I had to kick a mage who died to every ground mechanic for the next 2 bosses and pulled 2k dps before dying for the 10th time. In multiple M+ pugs I have had my key ruined by well-geared players pulling less than tank damage in a +12 consistently. I'm assuming they bought M+ carry's because they have decent RIO and ILVL yet have no idea how to play the game. Don't get me wrong I will not kick a player if they are TRYING and the content is able to be completed with not holding the rest of the group back. If they are not doing crazy DPS that is fine. But there is a line. I have been messaged by so many of these players calling me an elitist and ruining the WoW community. Is this not what lower difficulties are for? If I was unskilled or under-geared I would practice in low keys and work my way up. I'd work in normal raids and work my way up. I should not be practicing in a M+15 or a mythic raid. It's getting to the point where people are feeling entitled to gear and carries or you are toxic. Gear and skill matters in an MMORPG, does it not? That's why difficulties and gear exists. Has anyone else been having to deal with this or am I somehow overlooking something and in the wrong?
