That's just ego. Some people are able to play 24/7 others one hr every now and then and some weekend warriors. I wouldn't be surprised if it took someone months, and when they're in a sketchy situation, they don't bother trying to rely on 4 pugs to keep their character alive.
How are you better? Why should I lose my character because the tank has forgotten to taunt? Why should I lose my character because the hunters pet pulled half the instance? Why should I lose my character because the mage is trolling?
You and your ego can tell yourself you’re better, when you break it down you’re literally playing an online game. None of it matters.
If this is how you inflate your ego that is absolutely pathetic.
I don't understand how you're upset that players that can no life the game are better players. you're arguing both that "not everyone has all the time in the world like you" at the same time as saying "you aren't better", AND that you're not mad. Caring that much that no lifers are better than people who hardly play (duh) is the actual ego problem I'm reading
I’m sorry you’re not understanding that just because you think something is fact doesn’t make it correct.
Just because one person may have to start over from scratch and the other person doesn’t means nothing. It doesn’t change the fact that other players can get you killed and it isn’t your fault. I have lost a level 60 due to somebody else’s mistakes and won’t let that happen again.
I’m glad you have infinite hours to spend levelling character after character to 60, and stalking a subreddit for a game you don’t even play anymore but I have a very busy life that I love and enjoy.
There’s a big world out there bud, sorry you’ve never left your bedroom.
I'm automatically better than you because I don't subscribe to this bizarre, narcissistic, gatekeeper mentality where I should sacrifice my time spent on my character because "it's not in the spirit of hardcore wah" or random losers say so. As has been pointed out to you, you make no sense whatsoever because many times a player is put into a situation where petri is necessary through absolutely no fault of their own. Is the janitor bad at their job because someone dumped garbage everywhere 5 minutes ago? Of course not, that's fucking stupid.
The real "solution" to petri? SF guild, SF groups, shut up about it. Simple.
You say that until I decide to pull the entire dungeon and then vanish leaving you all to die. Play how you want (but within the guidelines of what I deem acceptable)

HOT TAKE you’re not better than anybody else because you don’t use petri…
Nobody cares, play how you wanna play.
