So far I have loved the community for the most part in FF14. I'm still very new and I make it obvious at the start of instances/trials.
But I did want to give a shout out to initials RR of the Famfrit world. You taught me a little about the white mage that I glossed over when I got a skill (Lucid Dreaming).
Apart from one group you guys have been awesome and it's a nice change from WoW.

Not sure which sub this is on.
fixed by crossposting :/
Wait did I not post on ff14?
Yes yes, you posted in good one, don't mind us!
The best thing you can do is let us know you're new! We want to make sure you love the game as much as we do! I try to make the game as fun and light hearted as possible!
This has been my experience, too! There's always the uncommon exception, but FFXIV's community has really solidified it for me as a homey kind of MMO.
Don't worry, you won't see the truly toxic people until you meet those pesky raiders, curse you min maxers! Jk even most of them are reasonably nice
Glad you are enjoying it.
Just remember not all of the players will be as nice but the majority are great.
Oh yeah. I get that. It's like not all players in wow are mean. There are some terrific people.
I have already had one run in where we had a new player that was tanking and the veteran was getting really upset with the dude pulling everything. He also was not a very good tank and could have used some mentoring. O felt bad for him and couldn't figure out how to whisper him when everyone voted to ditch the duty.
Pulling too much and not mitigating is a reasonable cause for irritation especially for the healer. It does not matter if the content is old or not. If the person was getting upset that he was pulling too much, but he did not stop, that's on the new tank. One needs to be more cautious when there role is literally to protect the party.
