I've played with some rude individuals on FFXIV, like those annoyed that new players haven't memorised low-level dungeons and are unable to speedrun them. By and large I'd agree, though. I joined after playing SWTOR for years and could immediately tell the difference.

Love the "McNulty Spectrum". I started out in corporate tech, but have been a lot happier at mission-centric orgs like libraries and research non-profits. The pay would be higher elsewhere, but rarely does a day go by that I believe my colleagues, and especially immediate manager, are not as into our work and mission as I am.
