You tell me
Am I the toxic one?
Because I cannot tell anymore
TarsonToday at 6:24 PM
Thats an important question, you said you used to be a toxic raider, no? What do you think makes for a toxic person?
or even a toxic community.

I once thought judging others based on numbers was what made a toxic man
But no, I could not have been further from the truth
There is no such thing as 'toxicity'
For every man has his own definition of what is toxic to him and what is not toxic to him
Aether raiders revel in the 'toxicity' I have now come to regard as, you know
But they view inability and lack of knowledge as toxic
Crystal is the opposite
Inability and lack of knowledge is forgiven here
They revel in helping others
But they view judging others based on numbers as toxic
Who am I to say that one is right and the other is wrong?
They are two completely different viewpoints
TarsonToday at 6:27 PM
you are right, they are different view points, and at their core very different cultures.

This fact seriously dawned on me when I brought up the lack of dps when Seiryu Enrage was encountered thrice in a row and everyone immediately responded that parsing was against the ToS
I suppose they're right
So, Tarson
I have arrived at a new conclusion
TarsonToday at 6:28 PM
oh?

I have decided to follow what Zidane stood by in FFIX
'You don't need a reason to help other people'
Whatever my behaviour is interpreted as is beyond me now
I will just do what I can to assist my fellow man next to me, should he reach out for it or is in clear need
TarsonToday at 6:29 PM
hmm
You are not wrong.
H A P P YToday at 6:30 PM
In the end aether raiders aren't 'toxic'
An absolute definition of 'toxic' doesn't even exist
They're just different from Crystal
That's about it
TarsonToday at 6:31 PM
mhm
but do you still feel your old behavior was wrong?
like when you raided on sarg?
H A P P YToday at 6:38 PM
Yes
For I scorned those in need
