I am sorry you see me that way. My friends list is full of new people, actively help them its starting to decline now since TTK has been out for a while. But I have helped many of my friends and their friends and even strangers in the tower. But when I want a fast run, I am going to do a fast run. I have my family, my school, my job, and my on and off relationship. So I don't have time to always help people thats why I needed a fast run and I got it.

I'm just stating why I don't think grimoire is important. I've met plenty of people with low grimoire who can get most things done in a timely manner. I understand trying to get things rushed out of the way, but personally I don't mind taking my time. When I do have time to play, I make sure to have at least an hour and a half so that it can be more of a leisure activity that I can enjoy as opposed to just getting it done and over with. Again, not saying anything is wrong with your play style or your requirements, I'm just saying you might be missing out on some great players if you always require something a lot of players may not have. I'm confident even with my low grimoire I could complete hard raid in under an hour. The only reason I don't have a hard completion yet is so many get frustrated and quit (I can perform any job exceptionally well). When one drops, generally two or three follow. Rather than sit around and try to find new people, I just accept the loot I've already gained and play something else.
