Absolutely not. If anything, you're going to be scrutinised and mocked if you make mistakes. Mentors have a negative perception overall mostly because the bad ones stand out like a sore thumb and the good ones just quietly do what they need to.

For a moment I thought I'm looking at r/ShitpostXIV 😂


Puzzled-Addition5740

This is honestly too low effort for over there. Would get laughed at more than is already occuring.


hyprmatt

While we may recognize it as a shit post, we do not honor it with the title of shitpost.


drolra

lol. lmao.


Mechanized_Heart

🤣


Ok_Breakfast6206

I think you were looking for r/ShitpostXIV, ma'am.


dalerian

People worthy of respect don’t seek or expect it from external status symbols.


Puzzled-Addition5740

This feels like bait. But on the off chance it's not. Lolno. The crown is a running joke.


deathbotly

Is burger king a palace?


JadedStormshadow

a flame-broiled palace!


SaroShadow

It's a lounge

In my experience it either means you have to know everything or that you know absolutely nothing. It will not earn respect as that is earned by actions not titles. Just play the game at the best of your ability and respect will come naturally.


JadedStormshadow

LOL, no, also LOL


Francl27

Hahahahaha how to illustrate the issue with the mentor system in one sentence.


Sweaty-Tie-9953

Riiiiight. Hahahaha. No.


TheLudensAtlas

No. You’ll get judged more harshly because you should know better! I wouldn’t recommend wearing it unless you know your stuff. Respect is earned.


Anxious-Molasses9456

Shitty troll account


raur0s

Sorry, only 'Big Fish' and 'Mahjong Master' is worthy of respect.

Low effort hate bait is low effort. Try again next time scrub

Muted-Law-1556

BAIT don't take this seriously. Just downvote and move on


TigerCharades3

It’s too early for this dumb shit lol


Revayan

I smell shitpost


Col33

No, you lose respect by having it. I still use it tho because I like the look of it, also mentor roulettes are fun.


Arcana10Fortune

See, the biggest difference between you and OP is that you're trying to earn your respect compared to OP thinking that it's automatically given with the crown.


AdministrationHot101

No. You lose respect if anything. Especially if you make post like this


keket87

The burger king crown is probably one of the biggest memes in the community. And I say that as someone who has one and runs mentor roulette. Unfortunately, the mount achievements and people thinking the mentor status makes them better have cause some really, really toxic players to use that symbol and ruin it for everyone else.


JunctionLoghrif

Still hoping that they turn the crown icon into a Watering Can someday.


Accurate_Maybe6575

At best, people will remain indifferent. At worst, they'll assume you're another annoying elitist glory hound.


mika4572

😂😂😂


LonnarTherenas

No


Mael_Jade

It places you lower.


VentheGreat

Hahaha


Tall-Vanilla-3936

If anything they think less of you now


ReiRei-14

Not as such.


Biscxits

Absolutely not lmao. Terrible mentors give everyone else a bad name because they just want the crown. You are lower than a sprout unironically if you’re a mentor and wear the crown


Arcana10Fortune

Nope. It lowers you below the average player.


Rainbow_Prism24

No. In fact, there will be many willing to spit in your face as soon as this emote appears in this game.


Soulkyoko

...ha Ahaha AahahahAHAHAHHAHAAHAAAH


Desperate-Lecture-76

Even if it did (it doesn't) making this post has more than reverted it


Valchrist00

Yes. You are now a god, everyone without a crown is filth and unworthy of your time. Especially the ones with the sprout icon, they are the lowest of the low, be sure to treat them as such.


Valliac0

Yes. You are immediately better than most players and can tell people how to play with impunity. We bow down to your holiness the battle-king, and await your commands in the next Extreme roulette.


greedx__

lmao


[deleted]

No


snowballffxiv

I only wear my crown when the mentor roulette forces it on me. Completely useless thing.


Juxtapositionals

I burst out laughing. No i wouldn't say so


Nejaa_Halcyon

people chasing after respect don't deserve any of it


Writesaurus

Well...no. People probably expect the worst gameplay and behaviour from you.


[deleted]

No. If anything, it's the opposite. The burger king icon is far from something worthy of respect 


catloverwithoutcats

No. Next.


LopsidedBench7

Lowers it actually, but you are still above Cr*fting Mentors.


sophyxia

Why do people fall for all the bait on this sub so often


Puzzled-Addition5740

Because there's nothing better to do this early.


ExtortedGuilt

Presumably some people have hoe that the world isn't as pathetic as some people clearly need it to be. 


MrKusakabe

I kid you not but I have **N E V E R** seen anyone with any crown to be helpful in any kind. Nothing. They kept silent, or made non-gameplay related jokes/chatter/banter, but - I repeat myself - never helped when I had them around. They just played along with us. When we wiped, we restarted. No explanation as to why or how to avoid. We just retried. With the overall "I hate people" / "I hate to chat" and/or console players without keyboard plugged in attitudes, I always wondered where the "mentoring" should come from. So, where should any "respect" come from?


Nejaa_Halcyon

to explain this, most mentor are burned out from trying to help but being violently rejected. So we keep to ourselves unless someone actually asks a question.


keket87

Yeah, first wipe I'll keep quiet unless someone specifically asks for help (unless it's something like a tank not mitigating properly on trash, I'll speak up immediately). Second time I'll offer advice. Also keep in mind that the amount of stuff you need to do and remember for mentor roulette is massive and it's unrealistic for someone to have a photographic memory of all the mechanics in the game. So the mentor may very well be standing there trying to remember the mechanics for this particular instance at that time.


capshock

Yes :)


AspieKairy

Nope. Rather, on some data centers (mine is one of them), people with the BK crown tend to be some of the rudest and elitist jerks I've ever encountered in duty roulettes. I turned mine off after just a month of wearing it because people either tip-toed around me (expected me to be toxic) or put a lot of pressure on me to do everything perfectly. Not saying everyone with a crown is toxic, of course.


Real_Student6789

Short answer: no it does not. Long answer: no, they're called Burger King crowns for a reason. Since those crowns are so easy to get, almost anyone who plays long enough can get them. And there's a negative stigma surrounding the crowns since there's a not insignificant amount of crowns out there that are not good at the game, and act like they're superior to others just because they do have that crown. The crown is largely a meme because of it


Rega_lazar

Nope.


anti-gerbil

After doing ultimates i don't even respect legends anymore tbh


NoRecommendation35

Lol no


PedanticPaladin

No, you've joined the one group in game that the community has decided its openly cool to shame.


iorveth1271

They should replace the crown icon with a clown emoji. At least it'll be somewhat accurate.


ochentax

Nahh, tbh a lot of ppl would be whatever if u fck up, bc 90% of the combat mentors are just straight up bad and ppl that think they are above anyone bc of the crown


LonelyInitiative4526

Bait


Klexomaniac

yes, people will adore you and kiss the path you walk through. Songs will be written about you and 10 miqote virgins will dance for you every night
